Sorry its been a while since the last post. Those of you who have ever had a newborn can probably guess why :) Not as much time on your hands as before! We just got back last night from 10 days in Colorado visiting my family, fly fishing and attending my little sister's much anticipated wedding!! We had a blast! It was so much fun to show River off to all the family and friend's who have been such a support through the last couple years. People who have been praying for us so faithfully with all that happened with Sarah...it felt like he was a promise fulfilled in their lives just as much as in ours.
We also spent about a week on the river doing some fly fishing, a family favorite. River caught his first fish...well, he was in a sling as we caught the fish, but hey...it still counts! It was so healing and relaxing to be deep in the mountains with nothing but the sound of the river for miles around. Nothing like it.
River has been going through a bit of a growth spurt as well. He's outgrowing clothes like nobody's business and he's also nice and fussy at night, which leads to LONG nights for me and a quick move to the couch for his daddy. Joseph needs sleep for work everyday, so I've been up most of the night with him as he tries to decide whether he wants to cry or sleep or eat some more...its been draining, but totally worth it. He's started smiling a lot more and also laughing in his sleep, which has to be the best thing I've ever seen or heard! I see Sarah in him more and more - whether in his physical features or in his personality - I love that he has a big sister :)
Okay, he's waking up from a nap so I should get going...but wanted to post so you don't think we've fallen off the face of the earth! More to come soon!!
