Mariah - 6.5 weeks old

I had fun today playing around with photos using this beautiful blanket that Auntie Eve sent over for Mariah. Our little pumpkin is growing up and changing so fast!


Peek-a-boo!


Love that hair!

Happy dreams

Such a kissable face!

Thank you Lord for blessing us so richly! We are amazed and so grateful!

Mariah update

I am sorry that I have been slow about posting pictures and updates these days. I am amazed how much time this little person can take up! But I am loving every second of it! Mariah is doing really great and is a great blessing in every way. What a tremendous gift from God we have been given!

Here are a few of the things we have been up to the last few weeks...

Irene, our good friend, made this beautiful quilt for Mariah! It is absolutely lovely!

Grandma Maryann made the sweet little sweater that Mariah is wearing. It is so special to have these beautiful handmade gifts.

Grandma Becky came with us on our first walk after the birth. Mariah was four days old in this picture. It was so wonderful to have my mom stay with us for the first two weeks. We were blessed like crazy by her. She just served us so selflessly the entire time by cooking, cleaning, and doing loads and loads of laundry! Thank you Mom!!

Our wonderful friends, Paul and Ramona and their three beautiful children came by for a visit as well. The kids were so sweet with Mariah.

There are lots more pictures to come...if I ever get around to downloading them from my camera. I will though, I promise!! (someday)
