the last 5 days..

Well we went from not being parents to being parents of 2 in about 3 hours! I have always wanted to be a mom and now I am. The feeling is unexplainable. It is everything I have ever imagined and more. The little hands that reach out for me when I get home to the 2 am feedings, I love every minute of it!

I thank God for my wonderful husband who has been great, for my motherly instinct and nurturing personality that He gave me, for the boys that He has placed in our lives, for the plan that He has created just for us, for my parents and inlaws that raised to very loving people, for everyone that has prayed for us during our infertility and fostering journey, for friends that have been there to listen to me cry, whine, and complain, and mostly importantly my washing machine! :) Thank you Lord for everything you have blessed me with and for the precious boys that we get to pour our hearts into.

I have done more laundry the last 5 days then I have in the last month. I have washed more dishes in the last 5 days than in the last month. I have given more kisses and said "I love you" more in the last 5 days than in the last month! The last 5 days have made my love grow to unexplainable strengths. I never knew you could love someone so fast!

..spending the day with the boys...

Michael after bath time and about to go shopping on my day off! Christoper taking a nap. His new outfit we bought with Aunt Shannan and Uncle Dewey.

Daddy trying to take a picture of Christopher smiling but the flash would make his eyes close!

Christopher always holds his hands like this if he is eating.

I think this is a repeat picture. This is the day that we got the boys! :)

Great Grandparents and new clothes!

Great Grandpa and Michael
