Picture this


We got a new camera!

Just in time for vacation....

East coast here we come. Now the getting there part should be interesting.

4 hours in the carseat that he hates. A six to seven hour flight. A three hour time difference to adjust to....

One thing is for sure. People are going to hate us on that plane. Oh well! It will be an adventure!

Just an average day...

between



work





dishes





laundry




& taking care of a baby should make me feel like....




this at the end of every day...


but instead I end my day or only make it halfway through in tears. Being a working Mom is stressful, but I am so grateful because it brings me to my knees and reminds me that I cannot be a good parent on my own. I want to reflect the goodness of Christ, and I hope that my son grows up seeing that. I want nothing more than for my sweet little Oliver to know Him.

It is only Him that gets me through each day...

well the encouragement I get from my ever so patient husband helps too :) I am so grateful that I have him. Oliver is so blessed to have such an awesome daddy! I couldn't have asked for a better father for my boy.

Happy Mothers Day!




Being a Mommy is such a blessing. I am so grateful for my son and everything that God is teaching me through him. There is nothing more humbling than being a parent. I am so thankful that God has blessed me with a beautiful baby boy!





Mom,
I love you so much and am so grateful for everything you do for us! You are a great friend, Mom and Grandma! We love you so much and are so glad that we get to see you as much as we do. Oliver loves Grandma time...
