One Month

so I forgot a minor post....poor second child already gets the shaft...I'm sure most of you know by now but Jackson was born 2 weeks early on Nov 15....7lb 15oz and 21 1/4 in. We are so in love and all my fears of being able to love another child as much as Ryder are over(:

I was totally unprepared for a rough labor because Ryder's was a piece of cake...this one was just long and then my epidural wore off so I felt way more than I wanted to and was screaming like you see in the movies...not that I ever considered natural labor but I sure won't now.
8 days old on Thanksgiving Day (below)....so much to be thankful for!

Ryder is such a great big brother!

this sweet little newborn outfit is already too small! how sad!
Already got our bama gear of course! Has anyone noticed that I have a child every year we go to the Nat'l Champ game? I guess I better keep pushing these munchkins out for the sake of alabama football...(andy's dying for me to go the game with him but how could I leave this precious little face already?!!)

This Christmas......

3 awesome things to read/watch as we are in the midst of the Christmas Season! I PROMISE YOU IT'S WORTH YOUR TIME! Andy and I have been praying about what we want our family to look like during the holiday's and I confess ours looks much like the world most of the time....I find myself thinking way more about what I need to buy, cook, decorate etc than about Jesus........hope the following challenges and encourages you as much as it did us!

And if you do read, I would love to know your thoughts so leave a comment! it's kind of overwhelming and I know every family will take and leave things and follow as the Lord leads. I honestly I am not sure where to start....well, maybe I should ask Jesus...I think I'll start there...
