The year in pictures

In honor of the fact that on this day last year, I had been up since 4 am with contractions, been monitored at the hospital, sent home from the hospital with the expectation of returning soon, contracting every 8-10 minutes all day, and back in the hospital by midnight to labor some more for this beautiful boy, I thought I would remember the year with pictures. We are truely blessed. (I dont know what happened at the bottom or with the spacing, but after spending almost 2 hours on this post, I didnt want to try to fix it...sorry!)

He is just the cutest thing! What a year it has been...I thought nothing could beat having kids of my own but Branson has made me rethink that statement! What a FUN year! You and Scott did good! Love you all, Mom-o/Mammy/Mammie/whatever...
