Colby

Our little boy is 4 months old today! Wow!! I've been hanging on to every moment with our sweet Colby, inhaling his yummy baby smell and enjoying the infant moments. As sad as I am to admit it, he may very well be our last baby. It is bittersweet watching him change and grow every day because I want to keep him little at the same time. These are some pictures that I just took this morning, he is such an expressive little boy! 





At 4 months old, Colby has discovered his feet and loves to play with them. He is always sucking on his fingers and hands. And if he doesn't have his hands in his mouth, he is "talking", almost yelling really, to whoever will listen. He loves to be held and carried around so he really protests if you set him down, even for a minute. He may be just a little bit spoiled ;) He loves his Mommy but his face just lights up when his big brothers or Daddy walk into the room!

Colby is so strong and is already trying to sit up by himself. He does great on his tummy time and tries to push forward. He wants so badly to see what his brothers are doing that I think he will crawl (and walk!) earlier than I am ready for ;)

Feeling very thankful this Easter

I cannot express the overwhelming emotions I am feeling this Easter. As we sat in the pew at church listening to Pastor Jason speak about Jesus, I am overcome with sadness. The look on Mary's face as she watches her son being tortured, beaten and hung on the cross absolutely rips me apart. I cannot help but think of our 3 beautiful little boys and how her heart must have just ached to witness that. Thank you Jesus for taking the sin of the world and nailing it to the cross so that my family and I may enjoy an abundant and ever-lasting life in heaven! 

Easter has a completely different meaning to me now that I am a Mom. I'm feeling extra thankful for our 3 happy healthy loving little boys and a husband who puts his family and his faith first. Our boys have such a great example in their Daddy and I pray they grow up to be kind, generous, hard-working, loving, devoted men just like him!



Colby's 1st Easter!



Thank you Jesus❤️
