Thankful

Pics from this week :)

Caleb and Elijah watching a big storm that we had early this week.

My first ever selfie. I'm such a dork! :)

I just love Jimmy's big smile!

Elijah made a snowman this morning with Mama.

Two years ago today...........

I was sitting in a cold, Russian institution, waiting to meet my son. Just then, this tiny brown eyed boy with a little shaved head, walked in. I held out my arms and he came right up to me. I held him for the first time, and whispered in his ear, "I'm your Mama."

Liam said.........

Mama for the first time today! He walked into the room, looked at me and said "Mama!" :):):)

27 years ago today......

I gave birth to the most beautiful little baby, I had ever seen. Weighing in at just 5lbs. 13 1/2 oz. and measuring 19 3/4 inches long. My little glow worm, that we named James Edward Lucas aka Jimmy.

You rocked my world and made it a better place.

Happy Birthday Jimmy!

Love, Mama

I am so in love with these Russian cuties! Thank you Jesus, for letting me be their Mama.

Happy Halloween

My boys get so excited over Halloween. They did such a great job this year saying trick-or-treat and thank you. Last year, Liam didn't care for Halloween. This year he was having a great time, just bobbing around in the stroller. It was so cute, because all I could see from behind, was this Elmo head bobbing around. Despite the rainy weather, we had a good time.

Jimmy's pumpkin :)

Caleb made the cute ghost on the right and the pumpkin on the left, at school. :)

 

ELMO!

Caleb was Scooby Doo a couple years ago and wanted to be Scooby again this year. Thank goodness, I was able to find a larger size online!

Elijah was the cutest Buzz ever!

Yep! It's Garth!

 

 

Oh boy!!

The one on the left is the other side of Jimmy's pumpkin. Next is Caleb's and then Elijah's. Liam's is the small one on the right. I didn't carve it, it's just too small and cute.
