What a beautiful little man, and I love the name. My 6 year old's middle name is Samuel. It was chosen as I was having difficulty getting pregnant and I prayed fervently to get pregnant and promised God that I would raise him in a Christ centered environment basically, and I already knew I would give him the middle name Samuel. Then we were given Ryan! Ryan LOVES the story about him.
I am curious to see why you chose the name, and will check back soon.
Hugs,
Jenn
Oh so sweet! He is just precious and I am sure the whole family is over the moon! I love seeing the pictures of him being held by the girls. That is such a special moment.
You look great too!! Take care of yourself and enjoy a bloggy break while you all get adjusted!
Sweet, sweet, sweet! Enjoy your time as a family of five!! I know it sure is different! Glad to see Emily is going to be such a good helper sister!
