Dearest Andrew & Aaron

Dearest Andrew and Aaron,
Okay, so there are two of you now.  Mommy was having trouble keeping up with just one blog and since you have doubled ( :) ) I cannot imagine keeping up with TWO blogs!  So I introduce "Dearest Andrew & Aaron"!  :)  Now this blog will be about the two coolest little boys on the planet!  There is so much I have missed blogging about these past few months, but instead of fretting about that, I plan to just move on and have a fresh start! :)  My hope is that I will keep up with your blog so you can read about all of the cool/fun/exciting/crazy things you did growing up (and what it was like to have ME as your mom, haha) and so that others can read about how cool you guys are now!  Plus it's fun to write about my boys!  I just forget.  Easily.  They say that happens after you have children, so really it's your fault.  Hahaha, Mommy is just kidding.  I was like that loooong before I had my sweet kiddos!  So, here's to a fresh start!  I am sure there will be many wonderful adventures, milestones, and so much more to blog about.  And now I should leave because you, Aaron, have decided it is time to eat and you are not into the whole waiting game! :)  Hehe!  I love you both SO much!!! <3


The Many (Cute) Faces of Andrew Part V

Dearest Andrew,
It has been well over a year since we posted one of your cute face collages.   I have always called them "The Many (Cute) Faces of Andrew" but now I think I should have changed it to "Funny".  :)  Hehe.  Today we went to play games and eat pizza with your Aunt Amy, Marcus, and Grandma and I snapped some pictures of you at the dinner table.  I had no idea how many crazy/silly faces you made!  You are too funny!  I was going through the photos and thought, "Yep!  Time for another collage!"  :)  I sure love you pal! You light up my life (insert Mommy singing sappy love song that is so old, you will probably never hear it) and make my days SO much fun!!!

Andrew and Aaron

Dearest Andrew,
Well, life has been extremely busy/hectic/a tad crazy/etc. around our house lately, but all in the best way possible.  We have welcomed Aaron into our lives and hearts and we are adjusting to being a family of four and having a newborn in our lives.  Aaron is WONDERFUL!  We all love him so much!  But you know what? YOU are still just as wonderful! :)  You have been the best big brother! <3  You are always asking to hold/kiss/touch/pet (lol, yes pet :) ) Aaron.  You love to give him kisses and it is so very sweet!  It has been an adjustment for sure, but we are having a blast!  We were meant to be a family of four.  Mommy would say there is still one missing, but Daddy does not agree!  Haha!  :)  We shall see down the road.  Seriously though, our family is perfect the way it is!  I know you will have a blast together once Aaron gets a little older and I pray you will be life-long best friends.  Thank you for being such a wonderful big brother!  I know it's probably hard in your sweet little three year old mind to see Mommy and Daddy giving so much attention to someone other than you.  Newborns need lots and lots of attention, but you seem to be doing okay with it.  We are trying our hardest to let you know you are still our buddy and Mommy and Daddy love you SO very much!  I hope you always know just how much.  :)  I cannot wait to see what the future holds for our family!  I don't know all the twists and turns we will face, both good and bad, but we will do it together as the super awesome family we are! What?  We really are awesome you know.  :)  I know we will have so many adventures together...Mommy and her three wonderful guys!  I love you SOOO much!
