Another glorious day together

Each day is a blessing to wake up to. Bailey and Hunter are growing so fast and saying the funniest things. Hunter starts his day very early - he is a morning person. He usually wanders into our room and declares that it is time to get out of bed because he wants "beakfast." He is happy little man and quite fun to talk with in the wee hours of the morning. He is chatty and has many questions. He says, "I need to tell you something," whether he has a question or a comment. The minute he is done with conversation he is ready to zoom around the deck on his bike, usually in his jammies. Recently an extremely friendly cat has decided to hang around our front yard and Hunter said to it in a loving voice, "oh little cat, I wish I was your owner." He is sensitive yet knows how to push our buttons. As soon as Bailey is up, the buttons start getting pressed! He does love her though and wouldn't know what to do without her. Recently he was very wounded when Bailey informed him that he would not be marrying her. He still believes he will!

Bailey is like me, she loves her sleep. In fact, she could sleep until 9 or 10 every morning - if it weren't for our little man and his traveling voice. For being the smallest in the family, it is amazing that he is actually the loudest (by far). We always know Bailey is coming into the room after a good night sleep when we hear the bell on her pink bunny that is usually in tow. She greets us with a smile and hugs, and a question about the day and all that we will be doing. She loves to anticipate but also enjoys being surprised. She finds immense joy in the little things. In fact, if I tear off a piece of scratch paper and write "I Love You," you would think I told her that she just received an invitation to Disneyland. When Bailey is done with breakfast, she heads off to her closet to rummage and select the most layers possible to coordinate a pretty outfit. It could take an hour or so, but she is quite content and usually in song or conversation with a doll or animal. She recently lost her first tooth - on June 1st to be exact. It has been very exciting for her. She monitors the growth of the tooth coming in several times an hour.

We are all looking forward to adding another member to our family. The kids can't wait to find out if it is a boy or a girl. They really want one of each - we are glad to know that it is one and we will find out shortly. God has blessed us so much. The days are rich with love and adventures with the kids. We thank God for every moment.
