MY ANGEL BOY

Jack

READY FOR OUR BATH, MOMMY!

As soon as I start running the water in the bathtub the boys come-a-crawling! They're pretty excited about bath time these days. Logan has this adorable, ear piercing shriek that he uses until I lower him into the tub. Jack just jumps/bounces up and down, up and down excitedly at the tubs edge.
Just adorable!

HAPPY EASTER, LITTLE BUNNIES

(Jack is on the left and Logan on the right)

What a good boy, opening the card first!

I know there are roughly 87 pictures of our Easter, but I just couldn't choose which pictures to post, and which to leave out. So... enjoy!

GOT MILK???

NO POP FOR YOU

Obviously the boys aren't allowed any soda; however, they do love to suck on the fresh-from-the-fridge cold cans. And it did make for some cute pictures thanks to Daddy!

FAMILY GATHERINGS...

My boys...
When I see a picture like this it really drills into my head that I have TWO babies. Two sweet boys. I just love them so much. It was really great to share them with Josh's family last weekend at an Easter get together at his sister Julie's house.

They were both loving Aunt Julie's toys

Logan, so sweet

Where's Logan?

There he is!

We had amazing views from our hotel room.

Stunning.

Beautiful.

Our room was lovely as well.

And the sunset was spectacular.

It's always fun for me to think back on our beginnings. And this weekend was the perfect time to do just that. We have come so far as a couple. I am so pleased that we are still my best friends. And that we laugh together just about every day.
Bliss.

BEING NOSTALGIC

29 Weeks

This time last year I had been taken off work. I was super worried about my gallstone situation & spent most of my days resting in bed, reading & journaling.

Here are two pictures of me & my BELLY. The first photo Josh took, and the second one (my favorite) was taken by my god daughter, Ilya, at our "TWIN PARTY". (My godchildren are seven year old twins & we had a party just for us so the kids could be involved.)

When I was only ten weeks pregnant Dagan, the boy twin, told me that he thought there were two boys in my belly. I should have trusted him!
From the mouths of babes.

I love to look back and see how far I have come. It's obvious to me that all of the sacrifices, the trials & the tears were worth it. When I wake up every morning, walk into that nursery to two smiling blonde angels, God makes it very clear to me that every cloud has a silver lining.

Logan

Both my boys.
Just looking at this picture as I post it makes me smile.
Check out those teeth & the grin on Jack's face.
And Logan's sweet disposition.
I love them.
Plain & simple.

Both my boys on the walking bridge along the waterfront.

I think that they are just edible in their hats & Osh Kosh overalls.
