These sweet fellas are ALMOST one!
This year has been the BEST and the HARDEST. The SWEETEST and the most EXHAUSTING. The most JOY FILLED in the midst of lots of COMPLAINTS.
It's been filled with....
Lots and Lots of Spit up, pee, and Poop. Everywhere. On everything.
Pictures with no smiles.
Hours upon Hours of crying and unpleasant faces.
More pictures with no smiles.
Hours upon hours of using this particular pillow.
Un-entertained faces.
Crazy and TOUGH mornings where we don't think we're going to make it out the house alive.
Sleeping with dad.

Napping on Dad.

We've had a busy year with these guys. Through all the hard (although I wouldn't change it at all!) we've had wonderful family and friends to pray for us, help us, encourage us, and listen to us. We are so grateful to each of you! We are so excited to continue watching these fellas grow - learn - and be the best of friends.
It's wild that we've gone from these little cuties.
1 day old.
To these BIG cuties.
11 months old. Playing together.
Not so happily playing together.
Much Love,
Seth, Erika, Mclean, and Nelson
