A Fathers Love

Dustin turns 30 today!! Happy Birthday to the best husband and daddy in the world! Your love for Roman is so beautiful! Seeing your love for him has made me love you even more. This year for your birthday Roman is your gift!! Can't get any better than that! Thank you for being my "Rock" this whole last year. If you hadn't been so strong, I don't know the person I would be today. This year will be the best year of our lives!!

Remember this song "Danny's Song" we played and listened to when I was first pregnant 3 years ago right before we miscarried? Now we can listen to it as it comes to life with our son, Roman :)

Look back how much he's grown, and see for yourself a Fathers Love.










Dustin and I have always talked about our "Bucket List" but we've never written it down. For his birthday I finally made our Bucket List and we can update it as we think of new things, but this is what we would like to do before we die. I've crossed out 2 of the things...Have a Son, and Pay for a Strangers Groceries.
Happy Birthday Uncle D' from Elijah and Aydia!!! I had to share their recent photos. They are growing so fast, and we're not able to see them as much as we're used to because of Roman. I'm ready for May to get here so I can see them more! Could they be any cuter!!??





I'm having fun still playing dress up with Roman and texting his pics to friends and family everyday since they can't see him...







We had an awesome Thanksgiving!! We weren't able to take Roman to my parents because some of them were getting over colds. Dustin stayed home with Roman while I went. At the prayer we all said what we were thankful for...and guess what I said-Roman! :) Thank you God!!
Aunt Toto (Dustin's sister), Big Daddy, Reagan, and Claire all came in town for Thanksgiving and got to meet Roman! Scott's parents John and Barbara came in town as well!
This was his Thanksgiving outfit :)
He still has blue eyes!

I wanted to think of a clever way for them to meet Roman so they wouldn't just walk in and I'd say..."here he is!" Dustin and I decided to put him at the back of the dining room table turned around, and when they arrived we would have them play the game of "find the baby!"
This is when they showed up and I explained how it was gonna go down. The first person to find the Roman gets to hold him! We videotaped it too. They rushed in.... And Toto found him first!!! She screamed so loud!!
Roman meet Uncle Big Daddy! Scott is such an Outstanding Man! He is a man of God in every way, and is the best dad to his little girls. If Roman turns out to be half the man Scott is, we did a good job! I always say to Dustin..."What would Scott do in this situation?"
Roman meet Aunt Toto! When I first met Nicole I thought "there's no way she can really be that nice". Well she proved me wrong! She IS the nicest person I know! Such a sweet sweet spirit. We want to raise Roman the same way they raised their girls. What great examples!!

All that milk on Thanksgiving made me tired!!
Roman meet your cousins Reagan and Claire! I love these two girls so much! I brag about them all the time! They have the best manners and are two of the sweetest little "women"! We love getting to see them through the year but its so hard to say goodbye when they have to leave because you next time you"ll see them they"ll be so much bigger! They are growing way to fast!
Reagan was 3 when i met her and now she's 15! Doesnt Claire look like Dustin? We always say she could pass as ours.

I dressed Roman in his western gear this day :) My cousin Amber gave him this in the hospital after we found out about Kaiya. I couldnt wait to put it on him?



I wanna be a cowboy Baby!




Speaking of Cowboys...how bout them Cowboys!? Dustin and I have had so much fun watching the games with Roman. His shirt says Big Cowboys Fan!
We took Roman on his first walk and bundled him up!
His face is saying..."What in the world do you have me in?"
Our little teddy bear!
This was the 1st outfit we put on him for the walk but it was to big to bucle him in the stroller! Does this remind you of the little boy off A Christmas Story? He's my little bunny!
CHEEKS!
Aunt Whit bought him this shirt. She gets to babysit him for the 1st time on Friday!

I love taking his picture while he's laying on me!
Naked boy after bath!




Our neice Emerson calls him "Baby Duckie" so i got this Duckie outfit for him and took pictures of him and this will be part of her Christmas gift!






Nothing outlasts his cheeks: They keep growing and growing and growing!!!
Sportin' some Adidas!
