seven months
"wimbelton" at seven months receiving much love from his brothers:





little willem continues to simply exude joy. i love so much about him and this particular phase of his life. he is snuggly, chubby, wears his smile often and well, and brings joy to all around him.

boston!





















feeling grateful:
for my mother coming to care for the boys while we were away
for a safe trip to and from boston
for the comfort of good conversation with good friends
for time spent watching, holding, and talking with the pierce girls
for new sights and sounds
for the joyful baby accompanying me on the trip
for the sight of my children's faces upon returning
