Seb and Jude

Jude Atticus was born TWO DAYS after Sebastian. We knew they would be close but had no idea they would be THAT close.

Laura and I realized fast that our boys may be dressed the same at times since they are the same size and cute boy clothes are SOOOO hard to find. When they first met each other, Jude came over in an outfit that Sebastian had--so we decided to have some fun with it! (Even their body language was the same!)

Proud Brother

Beck LOVED to hold his brother right after we brought him home. He was so proud.

The Announcement

July-December Wrap Up

I haven't blogged in 5 months. Mostly due to the craziness that accompanies having a newborn and adjusting to life with two children. A lot has happened. Some good, a lot bad.

It's no secret that this year has not been the best for our little family. I lost my mom in April and on December 6 we lost Brad's dad to pneumonia quite unexpectedly. It's been hard to adjust and especially hard to accept the fact that our children will not be able to grow up with, or have memories of, two of the most important and influential people in our lives.

I'm going to do my best to fill in the blanks on what has happened July-December over the next few days but, bottom-line lesson of the year is to tell those around you that you love them. Every chance you get.
