Craft & Learning Time
I am very proud of Ella. She can write all her letters now and is great at spelling simple words on her own. She loves to write all the time! I am still working on letter recognition and sounds with Jackson. He can spell his first and last name verbally though. My kids sure love to paint! Especially with their fingers.

Prayers Needed for My Dad
This Saturday, my dad (David Mattern), will be traveling to Jamaica for his first international missions trip. I ask for your prayers for him.
1. For his health/safety. He also currently has a broken elbow. Please pray for no complications with that and that he will be in minimal pain/no pain at all and will still be able to do everything he planned on doing for the most part.
2. That he will make an impact on the people and be able to share the gospel and build relationships with the people he comes into contact with in Jamaica.
3. That he will have a great time living out our calling to go and teach the gospel to the nations.
"Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the father, the son, and the holy spirit." Matthew 28:19

Ethan's 1st Rice Cereal
Ethan started waking up early in the mornings this past week and once in the middle of the night. It was not like him at all. Especially since he was 10 weeks old when he started sleeping from 9pm to 9:30am without waking up at all. I know we traveled for Christmas this last week, but it was still out of character for him. Ethan is 17 weeks and will be 4 months on Monday. I referred to my Babywise Tips Blog that I created when I had Jack and found my answer! He needed to start solids. So we started rice cereal on Thursday for the first time. He didn't enjoy it too much and spit out more than we put in. He will get the hang of it sooner or later. Ella and Jack thought it was fun though.

The photos are in order from before the feeding, to the first bite, to Ella helping, to when he is all done.
