Its A Boy!

July 10, 2007

Hello Everyone!

Mom has had her baby Jonathan Patrick Lambert came into the world weighing 8 pounds and 6 ounces and was 20-1/2 Inches long.

Here are some photos!

This is one of my favorites!

This photo was taken shortly after he was born.

This is Emma “Trying to hold” Jon :)

While Mom and Dad were in the hospital, our Grandmother came out to watch us. While she was here we made this!

I turned out pretty good and tasted AWESOME!

Today’s Scripture Meditation

Psalm 5:11-12

“But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
For surely, O LORD, you blessthe righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield.”

I will post more soon!

A New Week

February 12, 2007

Hello Everyone!

Lately, we have been out of pocket. My birthday was on Saturday, and our Grandmother came out. In addition, we have continued to work on the bathroom. The tiling seems to be coming along nicely, as it now almost covers half the bathroom. We have also been working on remodeling Mine and Jacob’s bedroom.

Be sure to visit my Mother’s Blog at http://www.linesfromthevine.com/
Also, be sure to visit my Sister’s Blog at http://oneofthebunch.blogspot.com/

Today’s Task

Finish Housework,
Prepare for my Birthday party tomorrow night,
and clean up from dinner.

What I Am Learning

How pasta is made, I never knew it only took two ingredients !

Prayer Requests

First, please continue to pray that this baby inside of mom will grow up big and strong.
Also, that we can continue to do repair work on the house without jumping any major hurtles.

Today’s Scripture Meditation

Deut 4:1-491 Hear now, O Israel, the decrees and laws I am about to teach you. Follow them so that you may live and may go in and take possession of the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you.2 Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you.3 You saw with your own eyes what the LORD did at Baal Peor. The LORD your God destroyed from among you everyone who followed the Baal of Peor,4 but all of you who held fast to the LORD your God are still alive today.5 See, I have taught you decrees and laws as the LORD my God commanded me, so that you may follow them in the land you are entering to take possession of it.6 Observe them carefully, for this will show your wisdom and understanding to the nations, who will hear about all these decrees and say, “Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.”7 What other nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the LORD our God is near us whenever we pray to him?8 And what other nation is so great as to have such righteous decrees and laws as this body of laws I am setting before you today?9 Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.

(NIV)

Till Next Time!


A New Week.

February 5, 2007

Good Morning!

As I said in my last post, we have been working on our bathrooms. Here is a picture to show you our progress.

This is a picture of mom’s tiled walls.

This is a picture of the doors we are painting in our bathroom.

Not quite finished yet :)

And this a picture of 1 of the outlets dad fixed yesterday.

Tonight, we are going to try to get the tub installed. Pray for us on this one, we really need to get it in.

Random thing you didn’t know about our family.

We use square foot gardens. Here is a picture of those!

Today’s Task

Our first task is to put the bathtub in.
Get the house straightened up before when dad gets home.
Possibly straighten the yard, I don’t know if we are going to get that far!

Today’s Scripture Meditation

2 Tim 2:1-26
1 You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others.
3 Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
4 No one serving as a soldier gets involved in civilian affairs– he wants to please his commanding officer.
5 Similarly, if anyone competes as an athlete, he does not receive the victor’s crown unless he competes according to the rules.
6 The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops.
7 Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this.
8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel,
9 for which I am suffering even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But God’s word is not chained.
10 Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.
11 Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him;
12 if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us;
13 if we are faithless, he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself.
14 Keep reminding them of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen.
15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
16 Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly.
17 Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus,
18 who have wandered away from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some.
19 Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.”
20 In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for noble purposes and some for ignoble.
21 If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.
22 Flee the evil desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels.
24 And the Lord’s servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful.
25 Those who oppose him he must gently instruct, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth,
26 and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.
(NIV)

I will post again soon!!!!


Textured Paint..

February 1, 2007


Good Morning Everyone!

Today’s house repair project has been painting our walls. (See Picture On Top.)
Textured paint is hard to put on the walls. First Courtney spreads it on the wall
then I would come back with the roller and run it over the paint. The roller has
grooves on it that gives the walls a textured finish.

In edition to painting today are family has been doing school, various web projects, my mom has been tiling, and we have been straghtening the house.

Random thing you did not know about our family.

In our house, everyone who is old enough to cook a meal does!
I cook breakfast, Jacob and Jessica cook lunch, and Courtney Cooks dinner.

What I am learning

NEVER let textured paint get on trim it is VERY hard to get off ;)

Today’s task.

Work on memorizing 2 John.

Finish some web projects.

Finish School.

Today’s Scripture Meditation

II Jn 1:1-13
1 The elder, To the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth– and not I only, but also all who know the truth–
2 because of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever:
3 Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love.
4 It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father commanded us.
5 And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning. I ask that we love one another.
6 And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.
7 Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the Antichrist.
8 Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.
9 Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or welcome him.
11 Anyone who welcomes him shares in his wicked work.
12 I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.
13 The children of your chosen sister send their greetings.
(NIV)

Till next time!!
