A quick word from Mommy...

I better get a word in real quick while I have a chance. My time on the computer doesn't come very often these days. Our baby boy is growing and changing so much!! I can't believe it's almost two months since our lives have been blessed with Ethan. People always say they grow so quickly and now I see that. Everyday as I look at his little face I'm reminded how God has blessed our family.




Ethan is now recognizing our voices and making big smiles at us with coos and cute little baby noises. Talk about making your day!!! When I'm awakened every 2-3 hours during the night to a screaming hungry baby, my first thought is "You've GOT to be kidding me!! It's already time for him to eat AGAIN!!!" But as soon as I see his little face w/ tears in his eyes looking up at me, it makes it all worth getting up. I've learned that I've traded sleep for the most precious gift of all and you just do whatever whenever to make that little guy happy.


We're looking forward to Christmas and being able to spend some good time with family. We've still got some "getting ready for Christmas" to do. Lots of shopping, I just can't seem to get in and out of the stores as quickly as I used to:)
Enjoy his little pictures and we'll try to get some new ones on here soon.

Hey Kimberly! I looooved your blog entry! He's as precious as they come. My heart squeaked when you mentioned how tiresome getting up has been, but once you got to him, his little teary eyes softened your heart to compassion...awwww!!!! How sweet is that?!!! I can't wait to hold that little cutesy-pootsy in a few weeks!

Really, Kimby...I can't for the life of me understand why you and Jeremy don't put warnings before your posts. I'm crying in my office AGAIN. My boss just walked in and was like...are you okay?

Ethan's getting so big! What a cutie! Do you think Hollie will let go of him long enough for anyone else to hold him?

It was so good to hear from you Kimberly. I am glad that you are doing well as a mom. I bet Ethan thinks you're great. He truly is beautiful.

P.S. I never knew that Liz cried so much.

He is so adorable. When I look at Whitman and Ethan and all the other new babies around, I just can't believe that God gives us such precious gifts. It makes smile and cry all at once. Have a great Christmas.
