welcome home reecey

our first couple of weeks with mr. reece have been smooth sailing...well as smooth as the introduction of a third baby can be into a family.

let's just say that we are grateful to have nana so close and even more lucky that she thinks it's fun to sleep on the couch and snuggle a tiny baby during the wee hours of morning. THANK YOU!

just as it was when henry entered our family, I am most looking forward to watching the special bond form between the three little brothers. they are smitten with baby reece.

their "I want to hold him" sessions total maybe 30 seconds, but that doesn't mean that every time they catch a glimpse of the little one they don't come running to hug or kiss him.

they have a lot to teach their tiny little brother. I find it most funny that they ask him things like "do you want to see my spy phone reecey?" and "can you say backyardigans reecey?"

we celebrated kyle's birthday on the 30th. isn't it funny how low key birthdays get as the number of candles grows? however, I can't imagine a more perfect birthday present than these three:
