Sam's special day...








Samuel was dedicated this weekend. It was the sweetest time with a small gathering of family and close friends. Traes mentor and friend opened his home and heart for our special day. We attend a church however we felt in our hearts that we wanted something different for our son, more intimate and a time for others to speak into our lives and Samuel's life. It was a sweet time that will forever leave an impression. Alan spoke about covenant and read from 1 Samuel 12:24- Only fear the Lord, and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you. He also challenged us to do 3 things. 1. Dedicate Sam to the Lord. 2. Train him in the ways of the Lord. 3. Let him go and give him to the Lord. How beautiful is the body of Christ.....so grateful!

It finally hit!


When I was pregnant with Sam I really didn't nest very much. I remember one weekend I really nested to get his room ready but outside of that it really never hit. Well he is 3 months old and with getting full nights sleep now I think it is hitting. We joked when I was pregnant that Trae nested more than me! Hey, at least one of us was doing it. Now if I can just figure out how to re-do ds2 room!!! It doesn't just need cleaned or organized it needs a makeover.

Spring






Spring has sprung! And as you can see so has our family. Everyone is growing and doing well. Sam is sleeping so well. What a blessing! He is usually sleeping about 10-11 hours a night without waking. The boys are both so good with him. We couldn't be more blessed. Both of the boys have a unique relationship with Sam that is so fun to watch. Sam delights so much in both of them too! He gives them the sweetest smiles daily. Ahhh, the things that warm a mothers heart.

Books

We love books! We are so glad to see that Sam is delighting in books too. He loved smiling at the animals in this book. He listens to many books that Jacob and I read during the day too.
