Daddy's Birthday!

November 1st is also Jeremy's birthday! And this is from our beautiful children:



Happy birthday to the most wonderful father and husband...we love you! :)

Happy Birthday Grana!

We have a double dose of birthdays today! Here's a happy birthday to Grana!

(No babies were hurt in the making of this film.)

Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day

Today, October 15, is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Today, I am reminded not of a personal loss but of a thankfulness for the children I have.

I have never personally experienced a loss of a baby through miscarriage or other, but I have friends who have. My best friend had a miscarriage at 10 weeks. Three of my twin mommy friends lost a baby each - two in utero and one after 4 and a half hours of life.

My heart completely breaks for the mommies and daddies that have had to experience this kind of loss. My prayers are with you tonight that you may experience peace in a way only God and give.

I thank God everyday for my little ones He blessed me with!

Jack Being Cute

Jack is sitting up really well and enjoying it very much. We have this one toy that he just loves to sit at. He laughs and smiles at it when it plays music and the lights light up...although he has not figured out how to make that happen on his own.

Here is a picture of him laughing at it the other day. He's so cute! :)


I was able to get a few giggles on film. I sure love these boys!

Ian's "Crawling"

For about a week or two, Ian has been on the move! He still hasn't mastered the actual act of crawling, but in the meantime he has invented his own version. And it goes like this:



Jack was showing off his turning around skills. He does that well!

Laughter

Hearing children laugh is the greatest sound, right?

Well we have two tough critics: Jack and Ian. For the longest it seemed like Seth was the only one who could get them to smile, let alone laugh!

The great news is, I got it on camera! (Of course the camera never does justice to actually witnessing such events in person, but it will have to do.)



That was taken a couple of weeks ago. Jack and Ian are smiling, giggling sillies now. It is so cute! :)

Happy Birthday Aunt Sarah!

I have, yet again, had camera/computer issues. They are now solved, and I have much to catch you up on!

On September 10 (yes, it has been almost one month ago), my youngest sister, Sarah, celebrated her birthday. Hope you had a great one!
