Ross & Leah (Emma and Deacon too!!)

Well…I can’t believe Ross and I are proud parents of a 2 year old. Yes, Emma turned two on Monday, April 21st. Both Ross and I couldn’t believe just how fast and how amazing these past two years have been. Here are some of the life lessons we have learned from our little Emma…

Take time out to swing every once in a while.

Life is much better holding rocks and singing Rock A Bye Baby.

You can never give away too many hugs and kisses.

Elmo and Ernie have a mischievious side too.

Nobody can wipe away the pain like Mommy and Daddy.

There’s no such thing as too much cake and ice cream!!

We feel so blessed to have been given such an amazing gift from our Lord and Savior. Each day we wake up and thank God for another day with Emma in our lives. She has taught us both so many things about our relationship with God and how He must feel at times with us…frustrated and loving at the same time.

On another note we anxiously await the arrival of the second baby in October. Even though it feels so long away, I know it will be here sooner than I realize. We had a sonogram a couple of weeks ago because we had a little scare and found out first of all everything was okay. We also found out that we are probably going to be having a BOY!! We won’t know for sure until a couple more weeks but we are excited regardless of the sex. This pregnancy has been very trying at times both physically and emotionally. At the end of it all, we both truly desire a healthy child, blue or pink doesn’t matter.

 Well everyone, that is pretty much what has been going on with us. When I stop being lazy and download Emma’s birthday pictures I will add them to our blog.
