Oh -The Places We Will Go . . .

And the things that we sill see . . .

Like our first born son getting bigger and smarter by the day. He isn't full out talking yet, but he is definitely saying "words.". And he understands SO much!!! He listens very well and is Mr.Independent now!!! It is just crazy to think that he's about to be 18 months old.
He is VERY active, interactive, social,and a BIG TIME show off. Gus calls him the "Mayor of Carrollton," because he waves at all the cars and people that go by when we're out and about. And - yes - he gets pretty much 95% of their attention too!

And then there's our second addition!
And watching him turn 2 weeks old. And seeing him become more alert, and stay awake for longer periods of time, and get his official Staats pot-belly. And catch him playing with the angels in his sleep.

This is our little Anthony today - 2 weeks old (as of yesterday):

Here's a little preview of the precious moments that we got to capture of our little Anthony's first couple of weeks in the world:






So - the places I will go:
I cannot express how it feels - there are no words to describe it - but I could have never imagined my life and where am I now and how wonderfully blessed I would be. And I look forward to all the new, upcoming challenges that will present themselves on the road ahead.
And - the things that I will see:
And I am so glad that we have convenient, pocket sized, digital cameras to capture the awesomeness that are the blessed moments in our lives.


So, no matter where we go, or what we see, we know and are extremely thankful that God has blessed us with such a deep love.
We pray that everyone has a blessed Easter - full of the sharing and celebration of new life that comes with this special holiday.
