Introducing... Lynnea Marie!

So I thought it was about time to rejuvenate this old blog. A lot has changed since I was on here last. Most notably the addition of one more child! I guess technically this blog should called Kade Avram and Lynnea! Lynnea was born in November 2012. She has been such an amazing blessing to our family. The boys have taken to her really well and love their little sis. I can't believe she is almost a year old. The last year has been filled with such joy and anticipation as we have watched her develop and grow. She has truly healed my heart and giving me so much happiness.

When I went into labor, Kade was actually at school. He had really wanted to attend the birth of his sister. I knew as soon as the contractions started that this was going to be another fast one. Luckily, I was able to call a neighbor who picked him up from school and brought him home. He got to be here after all! He was so funny coming in and out of the room, he was great comic relief. When Avram got home from school, he was a bit more reluctant. When he came into the room, Lynnea was screaming her little head off. He was instantly intimidated and basically walked right back out. It took him a good week to warm up. He actually didn't even hold her until she was a week old. His little neighbor friend was going to come over and I said to him Avram, Caden is coming over and he's going to want to hold your baby. Are you sure that you want him to hold your baby before you have held your baby? Instantly he said "I want to hold her." There was no looking back after that moment. Avram has tightly bonded to her. He loves to make her laugh and play with her. Both of the boys delight in her new developments. Whenever she gets a new trick they are equally excited.  They are really wonderful brothers!
