Growth Chart

Everyone says that they grow up so fast and they really weren't kidding.  Our little baby is already 5 months old and has gained 6 pounds and grown over 6 inches!  It's flying by and we want to enjoy every minute!  Joshua is growing like a weed and we knew we wanted something that we could track his growth and have for years to come. So.....

 We aren't planning on moving anytime soon, but you never know where the Lord might take us.  So, we wanted to make something that we could take with us if we every moved.  It will last us for years and years and we can use it for all of our kids.

 I was so excited to measure J and see how big he was getting.  I figure we'll do every couple of months for right now and then spread it out as he gets older.  Sean and I every measured ourselves too!

 I just wrote right on the board with a sharpie and labeled the date and how old J was at the time.

  

 We also wanted to make sure that we have scripture around our house so that our children can be used to seeing it and learning it.  We found this verse in 2 Peter 3:18 "Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ."  We thought it was a great verse for a growth chart and epitomized what we really hope for our children.
