Sunday Snapshot:{Beachin' It}


Last weekend after dinner, we took the kids to the beach. This was Jackson's first time! Saying that he loved it would be an understatement!
As I looked out across the ocean, I was reminded of a little boy that only 5 1/2 months ago was on the other side of God's creation...waiting for us...waiting for a mama...waiting for a daddy...waiting for a sister...waiting for a brother...waiting for a chance at life...the life that God had created him for.
It was a thrill for this mama to see her littlest son captivated by God's greatness!

loving the wet sand!


finding such joy in the simple things in life



laughing as the cold rush of water came upon him!



happiness in playing with a big sister

What beauty there is between a father and a son!



A daddy to call his own!


Doing the things that dad's love to do with their sons

looking forward to what's coming next in life


The first BIG wave for Jackson!


We're looking forward to sharing many more FIRSTS with our lil' man!


Ni Hao Y'all

I love how he has such a huge smile in most of those pictures! You can tell he is just LOVING it!!! It is so special to have those firsts, isn't it? We can't wait to take Matthew to the beach. I hope he loves it as much as Jackson does!
