a new little life

I feel so blessed by this new little life God has created inside of me. Psalms says "children are a reward from him!" I love that. It encourages me to know that God doesn't just give good gifts, but he also rewards - a totally different connotation.

Praying about the new changes we're about to face. Two babies under 2! Some people wonder if we're crazy! I promise we're not. Just living a full life! :)

Tomorrow is my sonogram and I can't wait to see our little baby on the big screen!

FIRST BIRTHDAY - Under the Sea!

What a bash Silas had today! We had all our friends and relatives over - 63 people in and out all day! Silas had a great time at his pool party and loved his balloons and octopus cake that Mimi made. (more pictures to come!)
Silas didn't know WHAT to do!! He doesn't get sweets often...






Mimi made a CUTE octopus cake!

Silas was soooo excited to get balloons for his party!




All together at the party!

Silas got a cell phone from his friend Eleena!




Mr. Tom (dad's employee) got Silas his first NY Yankees gear!!




Silas' favorite gift was a Veggie Tales cd!



Silas had some fun riding one of his outdoor toys that Grandpa Herb got him for Christmas.



4th of July

Well, what a Fourth we had. Silas got to play with his cousin Drew who is 6 mo older than he is and I got to see my seester! I'm sooo happy to have Nate and Andrea up from Virginia!! We've been able to hang out a TON and one of things we got to do was go to Niawanda Park in Tonawanda (whew - what Indian names!) to watch the fireworks.
