The most special Fathers Day ever

Image
This has been a extra special Father's Day for Jeff and our family. As in the previous post, Lilly's adoption was final on Friday.I can not say enough how blessed our family feels to have been given the gift of having this precious baby girl in our family. Fathers day weekend has been a blast. Jeff woke up to his gifts at the bottom of the stairs. This man is the most difficult man on the planet to shop for. Anything he wants, he go's out and gets or it cost so much that there is no way that I can sneak around and buy it without him finding out. So I really had to get creative. I wanted to have each of the boys to wear one of his Princeton foot ball jerseys and have professional pictures done. But they swallowed Colt. So I decided to just do one with Ollie.. at least I will have another  Father's Day gift in 4 years when Colt is big enough to wear it. It was a hit! Jeff actually cried when he saw it. Colt made this little "Daddy's Boy" picture

I was so blessed to be able to have Sara. She was and is my precious baby girl. I am so thankful to be her mother and to have watched her grow into the woman she is to day. But thanks to divorce and a horrible ex husband and mother in law, I had to fight just to be her mother for most of her life.                         I always desired more children.  I knew from the time I was a young child that I was born to be a mommy.  Month after month the

6 months of pure joy

Yes.. Again, I am a few days late posting. What can I say,My kiddo's are crazy and I hardly have a minute to myself these days. Just three days ago, June 6, our little princess turned 6 months old. I can't believe it has been half a year since Lilly came into our lives. Lilly, my darling little angel.. You have brought so much joy into our lives. I can not even begin to tell you what it means to me to be you mommy. You are such a sweet baby. You just smile and laugh at everything. It is so rare for you to fuss. You are the ultimate "Daddy's girl". When Daddy comes comes home you can hardly wait to get into his arms and you snuggle up to him. So very sweet!! Your big brothers just adore you. They always want to hold and tickle you. Nobody can make you laugh like Ollie. Matter of fact, Ollie is the one to get you to laugh in all your 6 month photos. You started to roll over about 6 weeks ago.. I didn't blog when you turned 5 months because I had surgery t
