Two Sweet Weeks






Here is a picture of The Prince taken just this afternoon! Somehow I managed to squeeze in a few pictures in between school pick ups and nursing and laundry and so on.

I couldn't resist.

I wanted to remember this moment at two precious weeks old forever.

Pure sweetness.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend filled with delicious hot cocoa, pink heart shaped marshmallows and lots and lots of chocolate!!

I have to get back to holding my little bon bon!

Thank you again for your love and prayers and the absolute sweetest comments .....it means so much to us.

Increase







Here are a few pictures of Preston's arrival! I'm so sorry for the delay in posting! We have had a beautiful and very busy few days once arriving home from the hospital and I am still trying to recover as well as make sure every single heart is doing okay here and isn't feeling left out in any way....that is so important to me.






Minutes old with Big Daddy. He is overwhelmed by the Father's love and bursting with gratitude!






These tiny feet have increased our household made a permanent impression on our hearts forever.......







I was worried about our youngest and how he would respond since he has been the baby in our house for 2 years and 5 months.....






We brought him in first and alone to meet his baby brother for the first time.....





This was his immediate response. All worries were put to rest and there were lots of tears of joy.....






The baby girl in our house took to Preston like a mother hen. She was SO sweet to him!!






Big brother had the same response. Grateful. Thankful me.......






And sweet Bella with baby brother.....oh the joy of these two together.....sweetness magnified.




Big brother and big sister gifts for all the kids hand delivered by my sister.......I have always wanted my sister to be present for the births of my children and the distance separated us and she was never able to be present.  But God is so good.....she was able to be present this time and she blessed my family in such beautiful ways. It was like Christmas for my babies! She picked out multiple gifts for each child based on their likes and interests and blessed them so much!!! My heart was bursting with joy.......





Big Daddy and the girls with Preston....







Meeting brother for the first time.......





Little Mama Bears.....






My beautiful niece....she loved holding and cuddling baby Preston!




Toy city in my hospital room thanks to YaYa! We even had a tea party!






My first born and my youngest gifts.......His grace poured out......





Mae~ Mae and Preston.






My three sons!!!!!




My beautiful sister, me and the Prince!






The tiniest feet....





Our sweet boy......





Leaving the hospital!





I hope to post again soon with more pictures and things to share. Trying to rest and recover this week. Thank you again for all of your love, support and prayers! It has meant so much to our family....

A Beautiful Birthday

Our oldest and our youngest!



Sweet baby Preston Grant made his arrival today at 4:24 p.m.! Weighing in at 8 pounds 12 ounces and is a beautiful 20 inches long! He is healthy and whole in every way and we are overjoyed and so very thankful in a thousand different ways tonight!

Most importantly we wanted to thank each and every one of you who prayed and interceded for us! We've had a long day and a long labor due to the position he was in but your prayers helped bring him to us beautifully!

So a million thank yous. My heart is singing and I am holding a great big, beautiful, bouncing baby boy.

Glory to His precious name....

I will try to post pictures in the morning. Mama is tired and so very thankful.....


Baby Day




Our little prince is making his arrival today!!! Be still my heart....

We arrived at the hospital to be induced early this morning and my water broke on it's on for the very first time ever shortly after we arrived.  Thank goodness we were already here! Just wanted to give you a little update and ask you for your continued prayers. We can feel them!

Mae~ Mae and her sweet friend Andrea are with all of my babies and the schools are closed for a snow day today! So all of my little pearls are well taken care of and I am beyond grateful for that. It couldn't have worked out any better!

We are praying for a supernatural day and hope to have pictures to post along with the good news before the end of the day today!

I can hardly wait to hold this precious promise in my arms.....

Thank you for your love and prayers.....
