And He said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.

Adam at One Month......


Our little man is has made his One Month Milestone...

The kids got a kick out of watching Adam as I sat him up on the couch. He surprisingly stayed put while I took a few photos.  He is holding his head up better with each day.  He officially smiles real smiles.....Nate is the best at getting him to grin, and it really is the sweetest thing. I took video of him on our iPad the other day while Nate was talking to him. 

It's amazing how much he has grown in just a month. He is sleeping much better at night and is eating like a champ. He is still getting passed around like a hot potato between his siblings, with Noah doing the most baby hoarding. I will admit that Noah has been a tremendous help....they all have....even Luke in his own little way. 

And of course my husband has been gracious in making sure I am getting enough rest....even in the midst of an extremely busy season at work for him.  Sleep deprivation is certainly common in this season of motherhood.....I feel so blessed that I can't even complain about the sleepless nights.  I am thankful to God for my family and for the joy that our little Adam has brought all of us this past month.

Piggy Back Brothers.....


The other day Noah was cruising around the house with Luke riding on his back....all I could hear was Luke giggling.  Luke begs Noah to give him piggy back rides. I made them stop for a quick shot. I always tell Noah that Luke reminds us of him when he was two. Noah has always had a sense of humor and we totally see that in Luke.....and when these two get together.....look out!

And just in case you were wondering....these two rarely wear shirts....seriously.

Adam....


It's hard to believe that Adam has been with us for 3 weeks already! The transition to having him home has been wonderful....thank you for your prayers. He is getting lots of love.

The novelty of having a new baby has not worn off a bit....Adam has 3 older brothers and a big sister who literally take turns holding him all....day.....long. When Daddy gets home from work, he wants to hold his little man too.

It is 2:10 am right now, and I am holding him in my arms.....and I can't help but smile, realizing that  in the wee hours of the morning is the only time that I have him all to myself....I think I'll savor these moments.

Good Times.....

The kids had a blast collecting candy with their friends from church.  It was our first "Trunk-or-Treat".  In the church parking lot the kids went from trunk to trunk filling up their bags with loot.  

With the boys we had The Incredible "Mini" Hulk, Thor, Wolverine, and a lion cub.  When we asked our only daughter what she wanted to dress up as, she said a princess....of course.
