Thankful!

Hi everyone! We are enjoying fall here in Winchester...the chill has definitely set in the air, the leaves are at their peak, and this weekend we are going to pick out pumpkins! Those should be some cute pictures (especially if you can recall Josiah at the pumpkin patch last year)! Good news to report, baby Silas is growing well, and everything has been completely normal at the doctors appointments (praise the Lord!). He is measuring right on schedule, and I've already gained 20 pounds (thanks to Mama Roberts cooking)! We have a little over 8 weeks to go until his due date and we could not be more excited. My parents bought us a beautiful dresser/diaper changer that is currently being finished and will match his room perfectly. I'm also looking so forward to my upcoming shower.

Josiah is now weighing in at 25.5 pounds. He has picked up some cute new habits! He knows now that when we pray, we fold our hands, and his Gran taught him how to say Jesus. Its so cute when he says it because he always bows his head and whispers it, as if he knows its a sacred name! It is so precious to watch him grow. He also has started flicking his bottom lip with his finger when he is in deep thought. So sweet!

Good news came to our family this past week! Andrea and Aaron are engaged! They are planning a May 16th wedding which should be super fun! We are so blessed to have Aaron joining our family.

Here are a few recent pictures -

Enjoy! More to come after our adventures this weekend!
