A new addition to our "crew"

So today one of my best friends Jeanna gave birth to a beautiful little boy Liam! It is so exciting because our little ones are only 10 weeks apart!

It has been so much fun going through our pregnancies together and now our little boys will be growing up together. Maddy and her son Charlie are already really good friends! In the picture below Maddy and Charlie are eating their Popsicles but Charlie had to take off his Big Brother shirt so he didn't get it dirty then Maddy insisted that she take hers off too!

Before we left the house today to go to the hospital Maddy and I had a talk about going to see baby Liam. This is how it went:

Me: Guess who had their baby today?
Maddy: You!!!!!
Me: No, not me, I already had our baby Mason. Who else do we know that has a big belly right now with a
       baby inside?
Maddy: Gi-Gi!!!!
Me: That's right! (Then I showed her the picture of Charlie and Liam together). This is Charlie's baby brother
       Liam.
Maddy: "Aww!!! It's same-same Mommy, me and baby Mace!"

I love our little conversations!

It's been a whille!

It has been a long time since I have blogged and I am really missing it! So much has changed since my last post in December. First and foremost, our sweet little boy Mason was born on January 17th! Weighing in at 6 lbs 9 oz!!!! We are totally head over heels in love with him! The 3rd collage are pictures that my wonderful friend Kelli took!




This picture is extra special to me because it has Mason and Tyler's footprints together! I got this tattoo on what would have been Tyler's 1st birthday.

I am happy to say that Maddy is just crazy about him as well! She likes to lay with him and love on him and give him little kisses! She calls him, "Baby Mace!"


So what else have we been up to? We had Mason baptized and it was such a special day because not only was Mason baptized but Matt and his mom were baptized at the same time!



And Maddy had her 3rd birthday! I still cant believe that she is 3!!!!! I don't even know how it's possible but I love her more and more each day, she is growing into such a beautiful little girl and seeing her personality is just the best!






Other than that we have just been trying to get into a new routine. It is SOOOO different with two kids! Wow! I just wasn't prepared for it but I feel so thankful and blessed to have them, they are my world! So that was just a very short recap but I am going to try and blog every week. The main reason I began blogging was to keep a record of all our special memories and things that Maddy and now Mason do and say! So I'm excited to get back into it! It may be long posts but I may also just try to post little things here and there that I want to remember!
