SNOW Day


6 Beautiful Inches

Nashville enjoyed a winter wonderland and the largest snowfall in 13 years. It was beautiful, and we soaked up every minute we could outside. We played like little kids, because it may be a long time before we get another snow like that. We made snow angels and a snowman, although Miriam was happy just watching us do the work. She loved to be pulled in her sled in the backyard as well as chase Tucker Bear. She even went sledding with some friends. Gavin was content inside where it was nice and warm under his cozy blanket. 



Little Miss wasn't bothered by the cold


Maybe next time


Daddy built me a snowman

Party of 4

 
 
With joy and thanksgiving, we welcome our newest love, Gavin Thomas. He arrived on Saturday, January 9 at 4:07 a.m. weighing 9 pounds 4 ounces and measuring 21 1/4 inches long. We praise God for a healthy baby and for an incredible blessing to our family! 


Big Sis is adjusting well, and my heart melts to see the love she has for him. She loves to help with everything...finding his paci, getting his blanket, rocking him when he cries, and the list goes on and on. She is constantly hugging and kissing on him as well as trying to give him high fives. Their bond is already so special, and I can't wait to watch it grow and develop.


As I look at this family picture, I am reminded of the song "Sovereign" by Chris Tomlin. 
In your never failing love
You work everything for good
God whatever comes my way 
I will trust you
