our {hearts} are full

happy LOVE day!

we are so blessed to have full hearts this valentines day as we now have another lil one to LOVE. it was a crazy week: our first few days as a family of 5, a sick husband and 2 cabin fever brother and sister. we made it a fun day all about love and enjoyed snuggling at home together.

the kids woke up to presents and cards on the table. we made pink chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast and enjoyed a quiet morning. we were all bummed that josh couldn't join us in the love fest :(

our 3 little valentines

beckett was super excited about his new batman shirt!
love his expressions

 

 

lil tate's new valentine outfit and "whoo" loves you book

i took the chance while we were at home to take some fun "loving" photos of the kids. they are so in love with their lil' brother. no jealousy so far!

brotherly love...soon they'll be running around together getting into trouble! i'll savor the cuddle time now

 

sweet sister love

 

my dream dates for the day and forever

we love you 3 and can't wait to see how God continues to show his love to us this year. may you always know how LOVED you are
xoxo
mommy & daddy

"pre" baby #3...

a week before baby #3 arrived we finally took the opportunity to snap some photos of the kids and i. i'm usually the one behind the camera and have had the chance to shoot some pretty fun maternity sessions, so i took the chance to have some photos of myself for a change.
josh did a great job taking direction from me and just trying his hand at being the photographer
we didn't get many, but i love the ones we got...such a fun memory to have and look back at.

 

 

 

each month we took a side shot...here's month 7 & 8

 

boy or girl?
we prepared for both...new blankies for the lil one
