Happy Birthday, Jennie!!!

We are all thinking lots about you today and are praying that it will be extra special. Just think-- you will get to celebrate again when Bob returns from Haiti. We love you! Have a great day.

Thank You, Donna!!

We all appreciate your hard work on a GREAT calendar. They are in the mail so you all should have them before February 1!!

Hard at work in Haiti...

Plane from DR to Haiti!

Pray for Haiti and Bob!

The family are all "in the loop" but there are many friends that read our blog, so we wanted to let you know that Bob left this morning for Haiti via the Dominican Republic. He will be with a group of doctors, some of whom are Haiti and some of whom are not Christians. He was asked to go because they wanted a chaplain who spoke French. As you know, the situation is very volatile and potentially dangerous, but it is a open door that he felt he should walk through. Let's all remember to pray for him continually and for Jennie, too, as she holds the fort at home. We love you all and are excited to hear the reports!

New pics of Zacharie

Lala loaned us one of their old cameras. So here you see what Zacharie looks like as a one month old. (He'll be five weeks old tomorrow.) Took these pics yesterday and today.

Guess who's 1 month old today?

Our little Frenchman!

I'm afraid the picture is more than a week old, but here are Zacharie's new stats from last Monday's visit to the doctor.

Weight: 4,5 kg. (9 lbs. 15 oz.; he was 3,5 kg. at birth)
Height: 53 cm. (49,5 cm. at birth)

As you can see, he isn't starving to death! We see so many differences in him already. He's more and more fun to be around.

Happy 86th Birthday, Great-Grandma Bixby

It's a little late in the day, sorry! But we wanted to wish Grandma Bixby a happy 86th. Dad took her out to eat this evening to Texas Roadhouse and the Bixby siblings got together last night. Just as spry as always and going strong! Happy birthday, Great-Grandma!

Corban Turns Three!

And what a big boy he has become!! Happy Birthday, Corban. We wish we could be there to party with you. We love you!

Remember this little guy?

... and all the excitement he brought to the Bixby family a few years ago?

Hard to believe he's 3 years old. Happy birthday, Corban!!! We all love you!

Editor's note: Not trying to steal any grandparents' rights to birthday posts. But since we were the ones occupying the earliest time zone of the family at the moment ...
