visiting kate

Over the last two or three years there have been a whole lot of babies born to members of our church (CTK.) It has been an amazing thing to see so many babies around and it's been really cool to watch our friends' families grow alongside ours.

A great blessing to us after Riley was born was "Meals for Moms." This is where members of the church bring ready made meals to the families of newborns. It was such a great thing when caring for our brand new boy to have one less thing to do.

On the other end of things, when bringing a meal to a friend with a newborn it means you get to meet the new arrival! So Sunday after church we went to see Jeff and Sarah's newest addition: Kate!

After I had my chance with Kate Shelby got plenty of baby holding time in. Here's a shot right after Kate woke up and was unswaddled:














She's adorable! What a cutie! Speaking of cute, big sister Hannah spent some time hanging out with Riley. You may remember Hannah from a previous blog when she was chasing Riley around the house. Here she is with a push toy in the kitchen:














Hannah gave Riley some very impressive lessons in sharing (well beyond her years.) It was so cool watching the two of them playing so well together. Here they are sitting against the couch. Hannah reached down to hold Riley's hand. So sweet!














Just before leaving Riley saw a recliner that was his size and decided to try it out. Hmm, last time he saw one of these he wasn't too crazy about it...














Jeff and Sarah have been blessed with two beautiful girls. Babies are such a joy! They do remind me of how much our boy has grown though. He's such a big boy.

We love our boy!
