Shepherd Daniel Marsh

coming in at 7 lbs and 1 oz

Happy Birthday Baby Boy!

Family of three soon we will no longer be!

This sweet picture was taken by my sweet in-laws at one of Jack's soccer games ( Go Dinosours!!)

As I enter my 36th week of pregnancy, it is really sinking in that our family is about to change. I cannot imagine what it will be like, but I know once Shepherd Daniel arrives, I will not be able to understand what life was like without him. So I sit, I go to work, I sew, I go through each part of everyday with the wonder and anxiety of the unknown that is upon our family!

Jack was born when I was 36 weeks along, so I feel for sure that it could be ANY day now!

I have really been trying to take it easy. My body is DEFINITELY tired!

Jack Blu is as sweet as ever! He was playing legos yesterday and he built a big tower with stairs. He had two little men. One was Jack, and one was momma. Momma was at the top of the tower and Jack was at the bottom. Jack went up the "stairs" and shouted MOMMA!

Momma said-it's my JACK  BLU! Then they hugged. I have always LOVED the way that when Jack gets home from somewhere with his daddy, he RUNS to me and screams my name and we hug like it has been a month even if it was just a short trip to the store- HA! I think his little imaginative play moment says that he loves it too!

He washed all of the pacifiers for his brother last night. I was trying to get him to put each one in the bottle basket that goes in the dishwasher so that I could run them on the antibacterial cycle, but he insisted that he wash each one by hand.

His vocabulary is expanding so much lately. He really likes to use big words. He told me the other night that if it thundered, he would be frightened. I wish I could think of some of the other big words he has been using! It is so cute and funny! 

He will eat his vegetables to get big and strong like a bad guy and milk makes his bones big!

I love that boy!

SO BIG!

I came across this picture the other day....it is probably a couple of months old, but still...he looks so stinking BIG!

He is so precious to me. I hope Big D and I do a good job transitioning this new little baby into Blu's little world!
