{NINE} Years and {ONE} month

{pictures by Gibson}

It's true what they say "the days drag on but the weeks fly by" or something like that. It's been NINE years since I married my sweetheart. NINE years since we started our life together.

I can still remember our wedding day. It was glorious.

I remember setting up "house" in our first one bedroom apartment. Such simpler times back then.

Since then, we have lived in 3 other states. We have moved 7 times.

3 boys we have welcomed into our family.

Student Loans, A Mortgage, Car Payments, etc. Life has definitely happened over the past nine years.

I love him more each and every day. He makes me laugh. He comforts me. He's a great dad. He works hard and I feel very lucky that he's mine, all mine.

I love you Jared.

As for Creed

He's one month old today!! Wow, where did that time go.

He's a GREAT baby. He LOVES to be held. He loves to be cuddled with the blanket wrapped around his head and tight around his chin. He likes to be swaddled but his hands have to be near his chin. He loves to sleep on your chest and he nestles his head right under your chin. He just started wearing size 1 diapers and I've packed away all his "newborn" clothes and he's officially wearing size 0-3 month clothes.

He's a big eater and drinks almost 6 ounces every 2 1/2 hours.

He has started to focus on us and turns his head as we talk. He's smiling and enjoys looking around.

He hates to be naked and to get his diaper changed.

He's sporting a double chin and makes us proud with his burps!

Love, love, love this boy and we feel so blessed to be the parents of three boys!
