Michael's 2nd Birthday!

Micheal's birthday was March 21st, so I am sorry that it took so long to post these pictures... I can't believe how time has flown by.... He is actually two and boy does he act like it.... He is adventurous, independent, and most of all lovable... He is such a sweet boy, but he sure does have a dark side.... He loves to dress himself (down to picking out his clothes, and it is usually one of two shirts,) play with his big brother, and most of all kiss on his little sister... He is a funny little man... Happy birthday Michael... We love you!!!

Lilyann Grace Stafford

She arrived at 10:26 this morning after only two hours of labor! She weighed 7 lbs 10 oz and has all her fingers and toes. She was 20 inches long and as beautiful as can be! Kim is doing great and everyone is happy! GOD has shown himself and HIS grace once again! Enjoy the pictures.

Belly photoshoot

My good friend Amy blessed us with the opportunity to take some belly pictures... She is such a great artist.. Here are a few of my favorites.....

My little man is not so little....

Kayden started playing soccer last week... He is so full of excitement each Tuesday and Friday just to get out and play with his friends... Especially Alex!! He and Alex are best friends and love to do everything together... It was no wonder when they got on the same team together at the YMCA!! They are so smart and are really beginning to "get" the game. They are learning to kick the ball with their heads up, not us their hands, and passing!! Mike played soccer growing up, so it is no wonder that he breeds soccer boys!!! Even little Mike loves to come to the practices and chase the soccer ball!!! Like father like son!!!I love you Kayden and I am really enjoying each step of your growth!!! You are an AMAZING boy and can't wait to see where the Lord will lead your life... I pray each day you will follow the direction of God's voice and lean not on your own strength but on that of Jesus!! I love you Dude! Here are a few pictures of my little man growing up!!!

I have the best friends......

Well.... What can I say, I am SOOOO blessed...... My Sunday school class threw me a baby shower last week and it was a blast!! I have never felt more at home than I do in Enterprise, AL. This Sunday school class has just taken Mike, my family, and myself in under their wings and shown us so much love.... They just make us feel like family! Since I lost my parents, the Lord has blessed me with amazing friends to surround me and my family. They have brought us so much love and joy, and enveloped us with the love of Jesus. They took us in, shared their stories of happiness and sorrow, and loved my children like their own ; what more can a person as for... They have clothed my daughter for years to come, and filled our cabinets with loads of lotions, soaps, and diapers... Its because of you all that my baby will be clean, smelling good, and always in a dry drawers...Thank you for showing us Jesus' love!!!! You are all fantastic!!!! I love you all~

Here are a few pictures from the festivities....

Our beautiful Lilyann Grace....

Mike and I headed to the Dr yesterday to have our 4D done... We were able to see our baby girls beautiful face and watch her move all over my belly.... She is an active little thing... It was so neat to watch her suck her thumb, play with her toes, and pucker her lips... God has surely blessed us.... Praise the Lord.... Praise the Lord... Praise the Lord... My mom and dad are looking down from heaven and smiling over the amazing miracle that the Lord has placed in our lives. Thank you God for trusting me with this important job of raising these children and blessing me with the ultimate gift of your love and salvation. I pray for my wisdom as I begin to embark on this new journey of raising this beautiful baby girl... I pray I will walk in your likeness, and be a beacon of light to my children in the ways of righteousness.

1 Samuel 1:27-28

27 "I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. 28 So now I give her to the LORD. For her whole life she will be given over to the LORD." And he worshiped the LORD there."

1 Samuel 1:27-28
