Introducing Noelle Iris Eliana Johnson!!!!

Ta Dah! At 12:46 pm on Sunday, March 16 Noelle was born! She was 6 lbs 9 oz and 19 inches long. She was perfect of course. :)

Another Breech Baby on the way!

Zowee's baby sister insisted on being breech just like Zowee. Turns out that doctors in the States aren't too willing to deliver a breech baby naturally like Zowee was. So, even though she wasn't due until April 1st, we had a planned c-section 2 1/2 weeks early. Here I am in the final days of my pregnancy: really looking forward to being done with the whole thing!

Graduation Celebration!

Here we are two days before the baby was born!

We got to have Graduation two months early along with the other graduating class from MTC. We figured it was one more thing we got done before the baby came, so that was good. We still have two months of classes left, but the graduation ceremony is done.

3rd B-day

Zowee was really excited about her birthday one of her favorite gifts was the hand-made "Wonder-pet's" cape from her auntie Alli.
Zowee also enjoyed having a few of her friends over for a party that evening.

Christmas in Colorado

We all enjoyed playing in the snow in Colorado over the Christmas break

Zowee especially liked eating the snow


we all had fun in the snow despite sub-zero temperatures





















some of us more than others.

Life in Missouri

We moved to Missouri in August to start a year of training with our mission. Zowee immediately loved it here and has enjoyed the lake and her Toddlers class probably the most. It is so wonderful to be together after a summer of Dad working 10-11 hour days! Zowee surprises us daily with creative ideas and stories that she makes up. She is learning to be sweet and more cuddly, but she still loves to wrestle, run, dance, and jump as much as possible. We thank God for such a delightful child and we are excited for the next addition to our family that we are expecting in March or April! So, Zowee is now in her pre-Big Sister training!

Ye Olde family picnic- gotta love it!

O Beautiful for spacious skies.......

Wow! It was such a joy to be in Montana this summer and be refreshed by the beauty that God has created! We enjoyed visiting Auntie Alli at the Bos farm quite a bit since it was just 5 minutes away! Here's the view out the back porch.
