Lately

Look at these two. I can't help but wonder what Olivers' personality will be like.

I think we all equally love  hate having our pictures taken. It made for some funny candid shots

So much personality, I can't even handle it.

I'm gonna be sad when he outgrows these boots.

Jett wrestling with his dad is one of the funniest things ever. He is just as rough as his older brother Jude. 

Leaves and wagon rides. Gotta love fall

This precious little boy that grew in my belly

Jude playing a game of Risk with his daddy. He takes great pleasure in relentlessly attacking everyone.

Such a beautiful time of year

This kid is love

Jett is so incredibly sweet with his new little brother. He loves to hold him and help in any way.

Could life be any better? I'm done with pregnancy for one. I mean done! And it feels so good. Like unbelievably good. No more heartburn. No more fatigue. No more huge uncomfortable body. I could go on and on. But seriously, not a day goes by that I don't grin and think, I am so incredibly happy to be done.

It's the perfect time of the year and I get to enjoy it while snuggling a new babe. I knew the time after the birth would fly by, but we're still amazed every week we check off the calendar. We're finding our rhythm with this new little addition of ours. He's incredibly good natured. He still sleeps so much. I can tell he's growing though and I'm clinging to every day, trying to savor every moment. 

Jude has been able to spend a lot of time with his dad lately. Something he looks forward to very much. And I notice the absence in all of my pictures. There's not nearly as many with our big brother Jude. I'll have to remedy that asap.

Life is just really good. I couldn't be happier. I have a lot to be thankful for. Good thing there's a whole month in which to do so.
