And then there were four!

2013 has already brought us so much.  On January 7 Ashton Wayne Held joined our little family, making us an even four and bringing even more love into our lives.  2.5 weeks early, Ashton still was a healthy 6 lbs 7 oz and 19 inches long, bigger than his older brother was at his 2 weeks early birth.  While Ashton entered the world very loudly he is anything but that now.  Sleepy, is the word we would most use to describe him, followed quickly by sweet!  Ashton is such an easy baby, and that in itself is a blessing as we adjust to having another little in our lives, Jack adjusts to sharing mommy, and daddy adjusts to mommy not being able to drive truck anymore. :)  Here are just a few pics of Ashton's birth.

Lovely hospital gown ;)

This is video of when Jack met Ashton for the very first time!

 

I love my boys!

Another birthday come and gone!

The joy of birthdays in that gifts can make them seem to last for awhile! Jack's grandpa sent him an awesome cardboard rocket ship, put together you can crawl in it and color it!  Hours of fun!  Here is Jack's bday in reverse!

Rockets do get some wear and tear!

Jack's room is almost too small for his ship :)

Jack was so excited when mommy finally got it put together.

The night before Jack's bday, I put balloons all over his room for him to wake up too...total success!

Still waking up as he takes in his transformed room...gotta love the dollar store!

The cake

Special "doughnut" muffins for breakfast!  Love you little man, can't believe 3yrs have come and gone! Mommy and daddy feel so blessed to have you in our lives!
