Party at the Patch

Best birthday party so far! We had Miller's birthday party at the pumpkin patch this year and it was      fabulous!! Lots of room to run and play! Beautiful weather and great friends made for an awesome day.

2 years (and 1 month) ago....

We were still a family of 3. My second pregnancy was SO much different from my first. With my first, EVERYTHING was a huge deal. Every decision I made seemed to be life or death. From the brand of carseat to the decor of the nursery, my decisons seemed to be crucial. With my second, it was the total opposite. I guess I thought that since I already had one, I had it all figured out. Little did I know....this child was going to rock my world!

I didn't worry about anything with Miller. I didn't even find out that I was having a boy until one week before I had him (on accident)! I guess because I was so busy with Merrit, I just really didn't put much thought in to how much another baby was going to change all of our lives. It didn't hit me until we brought him home. The first month of being a family of four was really hard. I'm not going to lie. There was a lot of crying. A lot of adjusting. A lot of loving. A lot of praying.

This baby stole my heart. I know it's so cliche to say that "I didn't think I'd have room to love another child like my first," but there is honestly no other way to put it. I didn't. But OH, THERE WAS ROOM! This child is shy, meek, doesn't talk much (especially around other people), sweet, loving, kind, happy, gentle. He is my Miller and I love him dearly.
