Sleep anyone?
So what do you get when you cross sleep deprivation, a dirty hallway and a green bottle?
Give up?
A sticky (hardwood floor) hallway from "cleaning" it with Spray n' Wash!
I have to admit, it did get the hallway pretty clean!
But seriously, look at these bottles -- can you skip several nights of solid sleep and then can you tell at a glance which one is Spray n' Wash and which one is OrangeGlo floor cleaner?

ONE DAY OLD -- Meet the rest of the family!
Mariana and Jack met their new sister at the hospital, the morning after she was born, before school. Thank you, Marieke, for bringing them! They were so sweet, and a little surprised at how tiny Eliana is! 
Eliana got to wear her special hat that MARIANA MADE! Mariana knitted this last fall, full of FAITH and HOPE that God was going to answer our prayers and bring us a baby. Thankfully, Eliana turned out to be a girl, since she only finished a girl hat! 
Eliana arrived just in time for Marieke (Christiaan's cousin from Holland, who "happened" to be visiting) to hold her. Her plane was scheduled to bring her back to Holland two days later!
