Aunt Abigail and Sophia
While I was looking through the blog I realized that I didn't post pictures from Abigail's visit!!
Abba came to visit a couple weeks ago and was fantastic!! She made us soup, hung out with me and helped me run errands, and most importantly relived some childhood memories playing old school computer games with Andrew ;) Andrew loves his "little sister". It was a great visit and hopefully next time Uncle Caleb can come too!!

Spoiled Sophia :)
Two of my dearest friends Amanda and Mia flew in from Los Angeles last weekend to see me...hee hee. Who am I kidding? They flew in to see and meet Sophia :) We had a very laid back weekend. The girls and I went shopping and got mani's and pedi's. Then we laid around the house in our pj's all weekend. It was wonderful to see the girls and Sophia was spoiled by all the attention and presents they brought her!! (thank you girls..xoxoxo)

Just Praise
“For you formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the womb, your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them.”
I am sitting here staring at my precious little girl as she sleeps right up against my side (she fell asleep on the bed after a feeding) and I am just totally overwhelmed by God's mercy, goodness and the incredible blessing that is Sophia Louise. When I think that the creator of the universe, creator of heaven and earth- formed my little girl perfectly in my womb I am in such awe. What is even more amazing is that as much as Andrew and I love, adore, and cherish Sophia, that same creator loves her so much that He sent His son to die for me, and her. Even as a new mom I can not even begin to fathom sacrificing my only daughter.
Tonight I am just brought to tears by how blessed Andrew and I are to have such an awesome savior who has given us this beautiful baby and the job of raising her to know and love Him.
XOXOX :)
