Leila meets her baby brother.

 Well, as usual its been way too long since we've updated our blog.  It amazes me how fast time goes...that may sound so cliche', but its so true.  The past few months have been a blur of activity and change.  We welcomed the newest member to our family, sweet Nash.  He is such a calm mannered lil' guy.  So smiley and happy.  Leila is the best big sister!  She loves him so much and is so good with him and he just adores his big sister, all smiles!

Our summer was nice too...we made a couple trips to the cabin, and we camped in our camper

Proud big sister!

on Pokegama a few times...fun memories.  Josh is off during the summer as usual being a teacher, so lots of projects were completed!  The biggest one being that we finally got our new front door in!  It only took us 3 years to actually get it in...but worth it...it is so pretty.  Nice work, hun!  So thankful for such a handy hard-working hubby!

After working as a pediatric and neurology RN for 9 years and a critical care RN for 1 year, I officially resigned from the hospital where I have worked for the past 10 years.  It was bitter sweet to say goodbye, but now a new adventure begins!

Hard at work taking a nap!

Trusting the Lord, and being a stay at home mom and doing child care are what path I have taken now.  I have always felt in my heart that being home with the children God blesses us with is the most important thing in the world.  I love my kiddos so much and want to be there with them each day to teach them and raise them in our Christian home.  Our amazing daycare provider recently closed her doors to begin her new adventure too...so I am so very blessed to take on some of the pumpkins that she cared for.  Life is ever-changing.  Some days are more overwhelming than others, but reminding myself to trust in God and His promises for me and my family is something I need to do daily, even multiple times a day.  I know that I will truly never regret staying home with my babies.

The pretty front door.

Leila's big catch...no fear!

So seriously playing in the sand.

Well, what else is new?  We get to redo the bathroom flooring and maybe get a new toilet...not exactly the way we want to spend our money and time, but that's God showing me that I am not in control of things.  The toilet overflowed last week and now we have that lovely project on our hands.

We had Nash's baby dedication a week ago..had some of our family over to celebrate.  We are so very blessed with our family!  We love you!

Well, I think that's enough about us for now...hopefully it won't be over a year before I get back on here again! :)
