Madaléna turned 2!

Baby Girl turned 2 this past Sunday, Dec 7th. This sweet, lil lass embraces life with all she's got. She loves placing smiles on the faces of the people who adore her. There is an inner clown just itching to emerge from her, she is just so much fun. One of her very favorite places to be is her Sunday school class, it's such a riot to watch her take herself to her class just bursting with excitement.

She absolutely cherishes each of her 3 siblings; they, in turn, cherish her; yes, even big sister Peyton-finally.

She is just such a delight & we couldn't be more pleased with having her in our family- indeed we were smiled upon when we were gifted with her 2 years ago!

My Baby Boy Turned 6!

Our Logi Bear turned 6 years old on 11.30!
Goodness, it feels like not so long ago I was sitting in my hospital bed staring at this small wonder that partied like a rock star in my belly for
37 weeks & 5 days. He was such a tiny lil man.
Ever since he was born he has been in such a hurry to be a big kid!
Today he said he can't wait to be "60 hundred"
~aw the boy can sure dream, can't he?
He is such a good boy & we are so very proud of him.
Every day with this young fella is a true treasure.
He is soaring academically in Kindergarten, now if only he can shed the ants in his pants he would be a dream student.
Overall he is quite an amazing young man & we are honored to call him our son!
Here's a couple pix I took of him on his birth minute at 2:37pm

Gavin Anthony is 5 Months!

Gavinci turned 5 months on 11.28.

He is a delightful lil man & we couldn't be more pleased with him. Such an easy going disposition. His inner clown is emerging. He will be sitting there & we make eye contact with him & he will just start laughing- it is quite contagious. He has so many tickle spots, too! This boy has the most beautiful laughter! He has begun making many vocal sounds & can rally himself up a good chatter.

We didn't get many poses as he was NOT into his photo shoot.

This is our 15 year old nephew, Trinton. It seems like just yesterday he was the age Gavin is!
Life is bittersweet how fast it goes.





A little video treat of him laughing & me acting silly with him:
