  1. Oh, how fun, and he’s too cute! I love other people’s newborns. Was never a great fan of my own, but when I can give them back? Oh, yeah. All about that. I got to hold a 2mo in church today, who when she blew out her diaper, and I smiled sweetly, kissed her head, and handed her over to Mom. Have a relaxing Spring Break- we’re just heading into our school year.

  2. Hi M… I must be in the thick of it!!! Because other newborns might be cute but mine lool totally perfect to me… Now I know they may not be that cute honestly, but my eyes are somewhat jaded!!! You have a good week!!!

  3. Hi H… I can never ever see a family resemblance between my kids – I assume they are weirdly different!!! Though sometimes this #8 does remind me if his older siblings and I look again and he was just acting and is back to being himself!!! Thanks for stopping by!

  4. Ooooooh, look at that sweet, sweet baby!!
    He’s so beautiful!!
    Aaaaw.

    And – lol, mine look totally different from eachother, too, and neither one look to me like my husband or myself. ??
    Go figure.

  5. Aunty K & I have decided we don’t know who he looks like but he’s definitely one of the hoods! Thanks for all of the pictures – it’s helping us feel a little bit like we’re there!
