The spider is a toy.

Some have thought the spider posting was a real spider. I failed to mention that it is remote control. In the pictures you can't clearly see that the boys are holding the remote. Just wanted to clarify for those who might be having a heart attack at the thought that grandma bought a real spider.

Watch out for the spider!!!

The boys got this spider from Grandma for Christmas!! It is a little spooky to look at in the house but the boys have a blast with it.

We love our sister!!

The boys are constantly telling me "Mom, I love my sister." I love how they have become big brothers and no one ask them to be. They just love to hold her and take care of her. I want to say how blessed I am to have such a wonderful and supportive husband and sons that love to show affection and now a daughter that will teach us all a thing or two about life. Our family is so grateful for the blessings of this year and we hope that you all have a Merry Christmas and remember that a small baby once changed the world as he grew and lived in a way that we all strive to emulate. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

She's HERE!!!! She's HERE!!!!

As I write this post, I am holding a new baby girl!! Liah Jane was born December 12, 2007 at 7lbs. 5oz. Gabriel and Isaac have been great helpers as mom has been trying to regroup. They both have taken on the big brother role and often say how much they love her. Enjoy the pics and have a fabulous day!!

Sunday Best

I thought the boys looked so nice in their Sunday clothes that I wanted to share with you. They look like little missionaries. Gabriel was happy to tell me after the picture "Mom, I closed my eyes the whole time!"
By the way, we still haven't had our new little one yet. I am one exhausted mom so please keep us in your prayers :)
