our joy...our lives...our fun...in the last few weeks

These last few weeks have been a lot of fun for us. We have our new baby brother, Brecken, to love on...and all is going well. We have adjusted to our family of five...and all the joys of having each other. Enjoy the various pictures from our last few weeks...starting with brecken at 1 week old until 2 1/2 weeks old!
