Aunt Ninny says, "look at the Dolphins Isaac!!" Natalie is about 19 weeks along with a precious baby girl!

Fast asleep on Grammy!

We got to go on a date! We went out to eat and then got to go on a sunset cruise out to the ocean! There were lots of dolphins to see and it was so peaceful.

My son getting bigger is bittersweet:)

Isaac fell asleep on Daddy during the singing at church....I have memories of us in church holding his 4 lb little body and sweet soft little head laying on our chest as we sang and listened to beautiful music praising God just over 2 years ago...

Chad held him like this the whole service:)

Motherhood Is a Calling (And Where Your Children Rank)

This was so very encouraging to me:
Motherhood Is a Calling (And Where Your Children Rank)

Precious baby on the way...

May 27, as I was sweeping the floor, I just had to lay down on the couch because I was so tired. The thought popped in my head, "could I be pregnant again?!" I just had to take a test so I called Chad to pick one up on his way home from work. He brought one and I took it right away and right away it was positive!!

We are very thankful and honored to be blessed with another life to care for and love. The due date will be January 20th!

Declan is 10 months old!

My smiley boy is 10 months old!! Declan has started to copy our noises so well! He can clearly say "uh oh" and he growls everytime he sees a animal or a picture of an aminal. He loves to roll around on the floor with pillows and loves to bang his head into anthing soft..or not;) He is pulling up to stand up on everything he can and trying to walk. He can also crawl really fast! Declan has truly been my little sunshine each day and makes it just impossible to not smile back at him.
