Family pictures
We had family pictures taken last week and we bought the CD. We have some really great shots but I can't decide which one of the boys I like more. This one of Chad and Braxton is so CUTE!! I love it.
This is # 1 of Michael. He would not smile, but when you are this little and this chubby you do not need to be smiling!
#2 I think I like #1 better but I want others opinions!
This is #1 of Braxton. He would NOT stop moving so in all of his pictures he is actually in the middle of one movement or another!
#2 of Braxton, i really don't have a favorite of these two so...
The family picture I love it, and they hid me behind my boys so you can not see my tummy!!!! Braxton is actually in the middle of standing up, but the awesome photographer caught he perfect. this is my favorite so there are no options.

Change of heart!!!!
I had every intention of posting a blog today about how crappy this week has been; how stressful, crazy, and just plain dumb. Before I blog i always read everyones entries; today, I am very grateful that I did. One of my friends (Brooke and Dan) had a link on their blog. I decided to just watch and after Chad and I cried through a six minute video about a little boy named Eliot, my trials did not seem so great, and my blessing became apparent.
Please watch and remember the blessings that the Lord has given you. I love you all!

PS. (this is Chad) Holding Michael in our arms while watching this just made the crying worse! Katy suggests that you have tissues.
