tractor time

i grew up on a farm and i loved it. 

couple weekends ago i went for a little tractor ride with my younger brother luke and then a four wheeler ride with my youngest brother lane. it was a grand old time. luke is so smart with vehicles and tractors. he's becoming a young man and it hurts my old sister heart. my little brothers need to stay little forever.... and so does andrew. ha ha i can't wait till andrew is older to ride the tractor. i'm pretty sure he will love it because he has a tractor blanket right now so it only makes sense, right? 

^^17 years old and studly as ever.^^

and yes i know how to drive a tractor....... totally joking. i'd crash the dang thing. 

happy one month andrew!

the best daddy

andrew and i got pretty lucky in the husband and daddy department. 

brandon has been the best through this whole new chapter in our life. he's always willing to help and be there for us. today i got a text asking if i've had lunch and i hadn't because i was holding little andrew while he was napping because he wasn't feeling that well and i said i hadn't really ate anything today before you know it brandon was home with a subway sandwich for me and he held the baby so i could have 10 minutes to myself. seriously he is the best. 

he knows exactly what i need and honestly he keeps me sane. 

thank you hubby for going to work and school and being the best daddy and husband. 

thanks for changing the diaper in the middle of the night so i can have a minute and also for doing the dishes so i don't have to worry about them and everything else. thank you lots. 

we love you more than you'll ever know! 

first walk as a family of 3!

the other day we went for are first walk of a family of 3! 

brandon and i have always liked going on walks and bike rides so now that we have a little one its even more fun! he was totally catching some sun rays. ps. check out that tree! yeppie for spring.

I MEAN COME ON IT HE'S TO CUTE FOR HIS OWN GOOD!
