Haven't had much snow this winter...

                              ...but we try to get out in it as soon as we get any on the ground!

Silly big sister!



                                        She loves being a big sister, but she sure is a silly big sister!!!!

Pastor Matt visits

We attend VOX church, it's been an amazing experience.  We are surrounded by people who love the Lord and are so supportive.  One of our pastors stopped by while Matt was home with Jack the first week.  Thank you Pastor Matt Woodburn, you are such a wonderful Pastor.  We love VOX and are excited to raise Jack and Brooke in such a wonderful church.

My friend Danielle went to the hospital with us to visit Jack.  I have known Danielle since Elementary school and we reunited through facebook!  She is such a great friend and has been so supportive.

Aunt Amy is the best!

Aunt Amy meets Jack!  We were so thankful she came to help me out.  She helped me clean out his room and put away all the PINK!  She also helped with Brooke, she is so good with caring for Brooke and playing with her.  She included Brooke in cleaning out the room, Brooke was excited actually about only having blue in his room..."No pink for Baby Jack!" she said! 
Dear Jack - Aunt Amy was so excited to go to the hospital and visit you!!!!  BIG SMILE and lots of love!  You are such a little bundle of JOY to all of us!




Keep eating...

we need you to grow so we can get out the hospital!

ALL FULL!

Sweet dreams, little guy!  You have so many people in your life who LOVE YOU so much!

She loves her brother!

            She was so excited to show all her friends at school a picture of her baby brother. 
Then when I picked her up from school the girls at my work got her a present.  She opened it and it was a BABY DOLL...not a GIRL, but a BOY baby doll!  Too cute!
