bundles of joy

Today I've been thinking about how I am thankful for my husband, family, and nieces and nephews. I am especially thankful for my baby girl growing in my belly and I tear up at the thoughts and fears I had of not being able to be pregnant and my journey to get to where I am now. I'm so glad she's safe and healthy and I am so thankful for everything she is and what she will become.

she was only 18 wks here. now shes 22 weeks. I want another ultrasound!

My nieces and nephews bring so much joy to my life and tears to my eyes because 4 of them live 7 hours away :( they grow and change so fast and I hate missing out on so much. Here are some pictures of my sister Selena's babies. They are so beautiful!

 Here's Wes (my brother) and Laura's son Will! He's 1 year old and he looks just like his parents!

 My newest niece and nephew additions are Carmen's kids (Josh's sister). They only live 1 hr away so its not as bad :) Ive been seeing them a good bit lately. Bailey made the sweetest book for Ellie with hand drawn pictures in it....*tear

 All my nieces and nephews are so excited about meeting Ellie :) especially Ashria and Bailey

 And of course nothing would be the same or as wonderful without my husband Josh. I say it all the time and Ill say it forever - he is the best thing in the world to me :)!! I couldn't imagine my life without him. He makes me laugh every day and fills my heart with love.
