The wonderful world of Zach and Sammy

The last 6 weeks have been quite an adventure as we adjust to having 2 little ones! Zach's favorite new phrase is "come...door closed", meaning shut that little brother in the OTHER room. :) For the most part he is doing great with Sam! But when you read between the lines (a honed skill to catch his adorable toddler approximations) it has been quite an adjustment for our big guy.
We have had our share of sickness, feeding issues and sleepless nights. But, as always, we have had an extra helping of JOY and God's grace which carries us through!

Here are some snapshots of our new life as a family of 4!


Uncle Dan came all the way from Boston to meet Sammy. Shh...don't tell Zach that that's the reason! Also featuring cool Aunt Kristina :)



Zach has discovered the world of candy as reinforcement for toilet training. He loves sweets almost as much as his mama!




Zachary is exerting his independence by insisting on choosing his hat and shoes :)



Zach loves holding his brother! Sam...not so much

Matching jammies! Yes, I know that the days are numbered where Zach will be smiling in these pictures :)




Cuddles with daddy




Super smiley boy!
