We are so thankful and blessed!

Ian is a little light in our world and getting a lot of love.

He is now almost 5 weeks old...that time went quickly

with the love, support and help of the grandparents.

Our family has grown,

Ian is home!

The house is alive,

now we are five!

(thanks to Grammy for helping me rhyme)

We are so very thankful for all the love and support we've had

in the past couple weeks. The meals that have been brought

have been such a blessing. Thank you!

Mom (Rachel) finally got to go home...

just in time for Brody's 3rd birthday celebration!

Thanks, Jane for the cupcakes!

What a celebration of cars. :)

Kaatje is already a GREAT big sister!

Okay, we're learning with baby #3

that the pics don't get posted near as quickly. :)

So here are some that are from Ian's first days

...cute and loved!

Some outdoor fun just before the new baby arrived!

Happy 3rd Birthday, Brody!

We had so many friends come to celebrate.
It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon...
too bad Brody got sick and missed out on most of it.

After mom's failed attempt at cake baking...
King Soopers bakery saved the day!

The big guy on his new bike!

He is a little joy! Proud big sister Kaatje and big brother Brody are eager to get mom and little bro home soon. The birth was earlier than expected but he was ready to join the family.
