Father's Day 2012

Last weekend we got to spend a whole day celebrating the one who deserves more than we're ever able to give him or show him....DADDY! The one everyone gets so excited to see once 5:30 or 6 rolls around. The one that works so hard for us all. The one that loves having 3 little boys. The one that lets his 3 boys help him outside with the yard or building projects. The one that is the glue that sticks us all together! We love our daddy! Here are the boys with their gifts and notes to daddy on Father's Day. The Lord really blessed us with a daddy who is a truly present in our boys' lives, and I know they will grow up to be Jesus-loving, respectful, gentlemen one day...and having a daddy like Ryan is a huge part of this!

    

John's an All-Star!!!

John's season with the Cubs has come to an end. They did really well in the end-of-season tournament but all good things must come to an end. He had an awesome season....he played pitcher and really learned the ins and outs of what a pitcher does! Pretty awesome to watch him get really good this season. Here are some pictures of their awards ceremony.

                     

Just as the season ended, we woke up one morning with a sign in our front yard....JOHN MADE THE WESTERN ALL-STAR TEAM!!! We were super pumped for him, and I know he's excited! They have a tournament at the end of the month and practice for a couple weeks leading up to that, but what an honor! It's a team of almost all of his "REDLEG" teammates, so it's fun for him to play with his buddies! Here is our All-Star. John, we are REALLY proud of you! You're quite the little baseballer!

Bowen is Born!

Our newest nephew, Mr. Bowen Barrett Stone was born on Thursday, June 14th at 12:07pm. He weighed 7lbs and was 20 1/2 inches long. He has stolen the hearts of everyone around here, big and small. It was a whirlwind of a few days, but we are so glad he is finally here, he is healthy, and now he's home sweet home! He is such a sweet little baby. Super cuddly, and really only fusses when he's hungry. Big brother Crockett is doing awesome and is SO proud of "Baby Bowen". We love you sweet B!

Pre-Baby Bowen!

 We are IMpatiently awaiting the arrival of our newest nephew, Mr. Bowen Barrett Stone. He should be here just any day and we couldn't be more excited! I know my sister was ready about 10 days ago, so come on B! Anyways, we took some maternity/big brother pictures last week and I thought I'd post them before he does arrive and newborn pictures are priority!! I sure have a handsome nephew and a beautiful sister!
