Yummy! 1-2-3

Our very talented and gracious friend, Sharon, offered to do newborn pictures for us.  She came and spent a few hours with us on Saturday and this is just a few of the many FABULOUS shots she got.  I've never done a newborn shoot before and was thrilled that she was willing to do this for us.

Looking at these pictures reminds me of how truly blessed I am.  I think no. 3 has been the "charm" for me.  Maybe the "poo hasn't hit the fan yet", but I sure am a lot more relaxed about this one than the others.  Maybe because God has answered so many prayers.  Maybe because I've had my awesome mother here to help me everyday.  Maybe because my husband is so loving and willing to do things at home for me, help out with the boys- all while still working extra hard to finish his many assignments that are DUE!

I truly can't think of a time that I was more content with life.  Sure, I've gotten a little cabin fever, but I have so enjoyed just being at home and playing with the boys...or WATCHING them play.  Life has become really REALLY simple.  There might be dirt on the floor.  The bathrooms might need cleaning, but I've been able to let go- if even just a tiny TINY bit.  Life still goes on.  My first priority are these 3 handsome darlings.  Its hard to remember, but life will wait- these precious babes and these ages will not.

Who knows what our family size will be...... this might be it..... and if so, I want to remember this time and hold it close.  I am enjoying every.moment with my little family.  I am probably a little selfish, but our time together as a family is so priceless- I just want to savor every moment.... even the screeching and fighting moments.
