Sentences and Questions

Jack is talking a LOT more these days. Tonight at dinner he said this sentence, "Daddy, Mommy changed my dirty diaper." I can't believe the kid put 6 words together! He's growing up WAAAY to fast!!


Jack is also asking a lot of questions. And by questions, I mean, "Why?" and "Doing?" (meaning, "What are you doing?") I hear these 2 questiong countless times every day! I'm not gonna lie, I'll be glad when this phase is over!!


And here's a picture from today just for fun :) The past several days Jack asks at least once a day to hold Brady. And he likes to hold Brady's hand....so sweet!

Brady is here!

Well, I am officially the world's WORST blogger!! It's been over 2 months since I updated our blog (and have been reminded by a couple of people), and LOTS has happened since then!! We're getting settled into our new house and are loving life in Greenville. But the biggest change in our lives is the arrival of our 2nd son, Brady!! And, I'm 2.5 weeks late on this update!


Brady was born December 26th (about a week and a half before my due date). He weighed in at 8 lbs, 3 oz and 20.5 in long. He's got a full head of dark hair, blue eyes and couldn't be any sweeter. Jack is a very proud big brother and helps out by bouncing Brady in his bouncy seat, reading to Brady, and bringing mommy clean diapers :)


We are loving being a family of 4! Everything about it feels so right and complete. We thank God for a healthy baby boy and a smooth delivery. The Lord has blessed us tremendously and we could not be more grateful! Luke and I were talking last night about how we love Jack so much it seemed impossible to love another child as much as him. But our capacity to love has multiplied and our hearts overflow with love and joy for our 2 children.


Here are a few pictures of our new little guy. I hope to be better about updating our blog in the future, but I'm not making any promises....I'm loving spending time with my 2 boys :)

Not the best picture of me, but I had JUST delivered a baby! I just love this bundle of joy to pieces :)

Our first (and only) family picture. Another bad one of me, but again, I had JUST pushed a baby out! Everyone else looks great, though. We really need to take another family picture :) LOVE this one! Jack sure does adore his baby brother :)
The rest are a few pictures that Luke took of Brady a few days after we brought him home.
