It is amazing how quickly they grow up. Are you feeling the itch for another one yet? I am, but Bryan's not quite there. Jack is so dang cute. He looks like so much fun. How is your fam? Mr. Benjamin is darling and looks just like his mom.
Jack is a handsome dude! What can I say. And it is too bad that he and Madilynn are related . . . it was great seeing you guys at Thanksgiving. Have a Merry Christmas!
I love his little faux hock. Sarah! I'm so glad you found me! I've missed you too! It was so nice to see your pretty face again. I could hear your laugh in my head. We had some great times.

He looks like a little model! I love the new picture at the top of your page, it's gorgeous.
It is amazing how quickly they grow up. Are you feeling the itch for another one yet? I am, but Bryan's not quite there. Jack is so dang cute. He looks like so much fun. How is your fam? Mr. Benjamin is darling and looks just like his mom.
