November Highlights

November flew by, but we caught a few highlights on camera!


Josiah's 3rd birthday


Aaron's 3rd 1/2 marathon


Our 3 children (yes, Mary and Josiah are in swim suits!)


All babies are "good", but some are easier to care for than others.  We are so thankful that she is eatting and sleeping well and generally a very content little one.


Mom blessed our socks off with all her help after Stella was born.  Lots of laundry, dishes, meals, grocery shopping, cleaning, football games (with Josiah), and afternoons with Mary.  Thank you mom!

We spent Thanksgiving day at the home of Nancy and Butch Ross.  Nancy is a cousin of Aaron's dad.  It was a wonderful relaxed afternoon of visiting and naps accompanied by an amazing Thanksgiving feast!  Thank you for your love and kindness!

Stella's Birth!

Stella Jean was born on Monday Oct. 29th at 12:48pm.  She weighed 7 lb 15 oz and was 21".


 Daddy got to help catch her as well as cut the cord!






5 days old

October Update

It has been awhile since updating our blog!  Some dear friends from Wichita, the Hendleys, came out for a visit at the beginning of the month.  At the end of the month, our family went to Tolmachoff Farms for some fun fall festivities while I was in the early stages of labor.   


Game night with John and Erika Hendley


Josiah, Simon Hendley, and Mary at the Phoenix Children's Museum.


Us with our pumpkins (cheesy, I know!)  :)

Fun day on the farm!

Of course the highlight of October was Stella's arrival, but she deserves her own post!
