Welcome Leia Grace

 On Friday, we got a call from Jessica that her blood pressure was too high and that she needed to go to the hospital for some tests. So, we all flew there to make sure she and Leia were okay. And we waited...

It wasn't soon after that they decided it would be best for Leia to be born. So at 5:10pm, we welcome Leia Grace Latham. She weighed 6 pounds and 14 ounces.


We all rushed to see her as soon as she was born and what a sweet, pretty girl she was. Blue eyed and blonde hair!


She's been a wide-eyed pretty girl since she was born. Just taking everything in and usually never saying a peep!


She got all washed up, so she could meet her Mama!


and it was love at first sight... 


Jessica is a trooper - she's as strong as they come and hard headed as any! 


Big brother, Ryan, loves his little sister. He's so proud.


As is Auntie and the rest of the family...


Now, Miss Brooklyn has found her new best friend. She's so sweet with her. She dresses fancy with her and just loves to share her baby dolls and read her books. They will be the best of friends!


We love you pretty girl. We can't wait to watch you grow up!

Our New Additions

A couple weeks ago my sister was leaving and noticed a birds nest in my wreath that is hanging on our front door. In there were 5 little blue eggs. 

We watched and watched and then one day 3 of them hatched.

Now, all five have hatched and it is truly amazing to watch. This Mama bird has such devotion to her babies. Along the side of the nest are all the worms she has ready for him. She flies back and forth to check on them.

She'll sit on them to keep them warm and never strays far.
