grateful.

We had a 4D Ultrasound done of John Paul on Monday, April 19th. It is amazing how well these pics turned out...even better than James' and Noah's 4D's. He looks so much like Noah now in some of the photos! We already love this sweet boy as much as we love our other two precious sons! It amazes me daily how blessed we are by our gracious God!


It has been a sad week for us...as one of Aaron's colleagues lost his 6 month old baby girl to SIDS on Saturday morning. We mourn the loss of this sweet baby with them, and realize how so often we take lightly the gifts God has given us. Our daily struggles, frustrations and complaints of managing the "Terrible 2's," "Ornery 1's," and constant juggling of two babies while very pregnant are put into perspective when such a tragedy occurs! I've tried to enjoy every moment with my sweet babies this week (snotty noses and all!) They are such an answer to many years of prayer, and although we will face our daily "battles" I'd never trade my job as their mother and Aaron's wife for any other! Thank you, Lord, for blessing me so abundantly!
