February 2011

 The Gray's sent us a cookie bouquet for David's birth.  The kids loved it and felt very special.

 We love our new addition!  The kids were so helpful with David.  They wanted to hold him and feed him any chance that they got.  Sommar even changed diapers.  We have a great family!

 The curls have come in.

 Sommar had to make a diorama for a book report.  She drew these people completely on her own.  She has an amazing drawing gift.

 Big sister Jordan is feeding David.  She is beautiful and amazing.

 Sommar had a toga party at school.  They just finished studying Rome and Sommar dressed up as Juno, the Roman Goddess of marriage.  She even dressed up her American Girl in a toga.

 Playing outside with our new brother!  The weather is so beautiful in February!

Jordan's class had a "100 Days Party"!  This is her 100 Days poster.  It has 100 butterflies, 100 caterpillar dots, 100 flowers, and 100 stems.  She did a great job with her poster!

 Peter and I got to see Bill Cosby live, at Ruby Diamond.  It was so much fun and he was hilarious as always.  We will never forget it!

 Baby David is so sweet and perfect.  We are so thankful for a healthy baby boy!

 We are waiting for the kids to come down the hallway and meet baby David for the very first time!

 Here they come, let by Big Brother Peter.  They were all so sweet and excited to see him.  

 They all brought gifts for David and I.

 It was a great moment.  All of our family together for the first time!  I will never forget it.

 Sommar had knitted David a nat and a pair of mittens.  As soon as we got back to the room, she put the little hat and mittens on him.  It was so sweet.

 The best big sisters in the world!

Peter finally has a brother!  He was so happy and so thankful!

 Sommar feeds David for the first time.

 Jordan's turn to hold David.

 Peter bought David a tractor toy.

 My boys!

 Daddy and his babies.  We were all getting ready to go home.

 Christy!

 Our sweet baby David.

 5 kids.  It was really neat to see them all together.

 At home with David.  They all loved taking turns feeding him.

 Sommar made me a pop up card and gave it to me when I got home.  It says, " Congratulations Mommy!  I missed you Mommy!  I hope you come home today."

 The part that popped up was a picture of a baby, embryo to fetus.  Pretty cute if you ask me!

 It was an amazing experience, from start to finish.  Peter Jr. had prayed for his little brother for a long time.  In fact, the night before we found out that David was going to be a boy, we were praying with the kids.  Peter's prayer was, "God...thank you that we already have too many girls already.  And thank you that the baby is going to be a boy."  He was very serious when he was praying and it was so precious.  God heard his little prayer, because the very next day, we found out that we were having a little boy!  God is so faithful and so good.
