William's Party

We had a small family birthday party for William at a local pizza place. Of course he had a great time being the center of attention! He loves being with his papa, uma, uncles, Jackie, and Anne. Thanks for the gifts!

William is 3 years old!

My baby is 3! The time has gone too quickly. William is such a nice little boy, and I am proud to be his mom!

I am so lucky!

I love being a mother and feel so blessed right now! The other day Olly said I'm very maternal and a "natural". Motherhood does feel natural to me, and I really do love every moment of it.

How precious is she??!!

William having fun at the children's museum

Today I decided to be brave and venture out with both kids on a big outing. We spent the day at the children's museum. It was fun and both kids were great! Gracie slept for most of the time in my ring sling. William really enjoyed the museum-what a great hands on place for children!

William enjoyed "grocery shopping" at the museum.

On our way home I asked William what he thought of Grace, and he said, "Mama, I want to keep her because I love her." He loves his baby sister so much, and he tells me how much he loves her several times a day. He loves to hug her too! He's such a cutie!

Almost 3 weeks old!
