you had me at HELLO

brian is out for the night with friends, the kids are in bed and i am just having a peaceful momma night! before i came upstairs for the night i peeked in on each of my little munchkins and i find it so hard to believe how big they are all getting. it makes me sad and happy all at the same time! i miss the "littleness", yet i am so enjoying the fun we are having as they are getting a little bigger. i find it fun to say my kids are 2, 4 & 6 and that is even soon to change.

i love to look back and as i do i find myself thinking about the time i first laid eyes on each of my kids. the first thing that comes to mind is .... YOU HAD ME AT HELLO! :)



my little noah .... this is the very 1st day we ever laid our eyes on you (in person) in our hotel room in guatemala city! YOU HAD ME AT HELLO


my little noah ... you are growing into a sweet, gentle, loving little man. you are helpful with your sister & brother and that makes me happy! i could not ask for anything more! everyday you bring just a little more sweetness into my life!



tiny little julie girl ... this is one of your very first pics from the first week of you being with us! YOU HAD ME AT HELLO


tiny little julie girl ... you are growing into such a helpful, loving, funny and most of all healthy little girl. we spent many, many days and nights praying for you and now we have been blessed to have you right where you belong! you bring me joy and a little craziness everyday ;) ... i couldn't ask for more!




my baby boy ... although i laid eyes on you the very day you were born and held you in my arms little did i know that 10 mons later you would be in my home! this is the first time i actually laid eyes on you knowing you were going to be mine!!!! YOU HAD ME AT HELLO


my baby boy ... you are growing up way too fast! you are growing up to be just like your big brother and i love that you love him soooo much. you want to dress like him, talk like him and be like him in every way. you have the sweetest little voice, best ever snuggles and i love how much you still "need" your mama! i am trying to soak in every ounce of "babyness" that is left in you because it is fading fast! :(
