Mother's Day

I woke up (in tears) to this....

a collage and a precious video from my little boy that first called me and gave the title "Momma".

Celebrated the rest of the day by dedicating this precious baby to the Lord...

loved hosting and celebrating with both sets of families in our new home.

Ended the day with the reality that in 15 short weeks, we will be a family of five....

that little nugget is now 25 weeks, and we are so anxious and excited about his arrival!

And unexpectedly and surprisingly continued to celebrate today as I received the most emotional package I have ever received in the mail...

all of Rowen's artwork (to which I PROUDLY hung/displayed ever piece in the mud room)...

 

So blessed, honored, humbled, speechless, overjoyed...(the list could go on forever) to be a Mommy to 3 of the most precious baby boys! As a little girl, I would lay hands on my baby dolls praying that they would come to life, because I wanted to be a Mommy so badly. In just 2 short years, God has unveiled so many of my dreams and has answered my prayers in ways I could have never wished for!

10 Months

So full of life...

and NON STOP!

I absolutely can not get enough of this little guy. While I am beyond thankful for a healthy, beautiful, and SWEET little boy, I can't handle the thought of planning of a first birthday ( 2 short months away :( )....literally hurts my heart. We are soaking up every second of his precious life, and we praise God for the privilege and honor of getting to be his Mommy and Daddy.

We Moved...

Into a new home approx 1 mile away from our old home; just in time for our growing family. Old news for most, but we've been here a little over 4 weeks and we are loving it!  We are specifically loving the spacious living spaces, big yard, fireplaces, extra bedrooms, and garage.

It wasn't/is not nearly in the condition as our first house, therefore, we have been able to update/renovate a little at a time. Besides LOTS of paint, new fixtures, kitchen and bathroom facelifts, and the removal of lots of wallpaper; it really is in great shape. We are beyond thankful for a comfortable home with additional room to throw balls, play chase, and wrestle with the soon to be three little boys that it will encompass.

Here are a few pictures of a few things we have updated/redone. Nothing is exactly complete, so pictures are a bit sparse.

Before...

After...

The upstairs has 3 bedrooms, since we desire for the boys to share a room, we are turning one of the bedrooms into a play room and the other will be Cruz's nursery.

A few recent pics of the little man.

We unfortunately do not have any updates on Rowen :(. We rest in knowing that God is still at work and we trust in His timing. We are still lacking one signature. If we cross your minds, please continue to pray that we will receive that signature SOON!

As for Cruz...he is 23 weeks; growing and moving like crazy. I can't get enough of his kicks and squirms. So humbled and blessed by the miracle of life (x3) that God has entrusted us with. Love, love, love my boys...all four of them!
