Smiles!

Aubrey started smiling a lot in the past week - usually in her sleep...
They are precious, so I must share.

Aubrey meets Adria

Emily (a dear friend and former co-worker who now lives in Houston) came through town today...and our baby girls met!
Adria was born March 13th. And Aubrey was born April 20th. Here they are together (and their mommies)!
We hope it will be their first of many get-togethers!

Baby Paige is here!

Jeff & Amy's baby came today just before 11am. They have named her Paige (middle name yet to be determined) and she weighed 7lbs 2oz. She's a cutie! And Momma & baby are healthy!

Here are a few pictures from our visit to the hospital this afternoon.

Wishing all moms out there a Happy Mother's Day

I have been blessed with a family legacy of amazing mothers. I am lucky enough to live in the same town as my mom, both my grandmothers, and my sis-in-law Amy...Four of the world's best moms! I am reflecting today on the wonderful gifts they have given me, and the gifts and lessons learned from the many other moms in my life. I pray that I can be a godly, loving mom each day, each moment.

Hooray for moms!
