JUST IN LOVE WITH JACE!

I have not been in the blogging world for such a long time but I had to record how I feel about our family's newest baby boy, JACE BLAIR JOHNSTON. He is all boy and is so unique in his family...the only boy, the only blond and blue eyes all the way. He loves to be cuddled and swaddled and warm. He buries himself into whoever is holding him and there he stays all cozy and comfy until you try to put him down. He is then instantly awake! We love him so much ...his birth was memorable and very exciting. I miss him if I don't see him for a while.

My mother said new babies always need to be dressed in pastels so she would have thought that this shirt was too dark, but it sure matches his eyes!

We are so blessed to have two beautiful new babies. They bring so much fun and tenderness into our lives.

LOVIN' LIVI

I raced from my meeting in Farmington and arrived minutes after Liv Johnston was born. I was so excited and happy that it was hard to leave, so we kept coming back!

Holly looked beautiful after a good night's rest and just a few minutes of pushing!!! She told Ty, "I was made to have babies."

Ty was with her every step of the way. I was so proud of how calm he was.

Well, someone had to show them how! Really, they already knew the key to swaddling and that socks are a must!

Liv is beautiful, sweet, precious, and such a good baby. We love her so much and miss her whenever we don't see her or hold her for a few days. She is already a very tender and loved addition to our family.
