Parker's Blessing

This passed Sunday Parker was blessed. Mike gave an amazing blessing to him and we were able to share this special day with our closest friends and family. We are so happy with our two little boys! We are blessed!

My shirt says Mommy's Lucky Charm. What a charm he is to have in our family.

Parker Michael has arrived!

We are so blessed to have PARKER MICHAEL join our little family as of March 12, 2010. We couldn't be more happy. He gets tons of kisses and Bentley is just crazy about him.

Bentley's first time meeting Parker

Winter wonderland!

We took a little break this week and spent a day in flagstaff because Mommy wanted to have a snow day before baby number two arrives. It was so cold and snowing up a storm. Bentley kept saying how excited he was to see the snow. Mike and Bentley built a snowman and made snow angels. I tried walking in the two foot deep snow, but kept falling. Being 9 months pregnant and in the snow was a little difficult. We had a good time and enjoyed all the snow that flagstaff has gotten in the past couple of weeks. I wasn't able to take very many pictures because the battery died right after I snapped a few pictures.....

What a cute snow angel!

Working hard to build that snowman

Bentley knows baby brother is coming soon........

I have been having so much fun with Bentley the last two weeks. Even though he has been sick recently he is my little angel. As I have been preparing for a new baby, Bentley has been definitely noticing changes going on. Whenever I sigh or say that I am tired he looks at me with his big blue eyes and says, " Momma baby brother moving around in tummy" and I reply, " Yes! He is moving a lot" and Bentley says," I don't want him to hurt you Momma". I thought that was the cutest thing ever. He has also been very fun to play with. We have made interesting things with play doh and he loves when we run around the house pretending to be animals ( funny to see me running around as an animal I know). He has also been into playing with mommy and wants to know what we are going to do everyday. All I can say is Bentley has been more into me than ever before. I think this is because he senses baby brother is coming in the next eight weeks! It kind of makes me a little sad because I love having him all to myself each day. Bentley will always be my baby and I am excited to have another boy, but I will miss our time we share of just the two of us.

Christmas...Birthdays... and a New Year

During the holidays we had so much fun with our families and friends. We had laughter, love, food, games, nativity program, movies, service, Santa, hikes, bike rides, fondu party, cookies and gingerbread decorating, playing at the park and much more...Here are some photos of what we have been up to this last month.
