A year and two days ago, we found out about our precious Nathan. :) I still remember that day and how excited I was. I was recovering from a root canal the day before (yes, on Halloween), and had class that morning. Boo... Finding out about Nathan was very different than with Natty. With Natty, it was hard to see so many pregnant women around me. I was always so anxious and it was a constant struggle to wait on God's timing. This time around, with Nathan, I felt like I was more calm. That day, Nov. 1, 2008, Nathan came simply as a wonderful surprise. I didn't know anyone else that was pregnant at the time. I didn't know how long it would take, and I did not know when exactly we'd get pregnant again. I just knew I had destined in my heart that I'd try my best to be patient. Needless to say, it didn't take that long, but I wasn't so crazy about it this time around either. I remmeber not being able to get over the shock and amazement. I couldn't wait to tell Tim, and had to wait until he got from work - which almost killed me!
As Natty and Nathan get older - Natty turns two in about a week and a half - I try as hard as I can to remember all those special moments. Natty is growing so fast, her mind is just so amazing. She knows 2 colors - yellow (lellow) and blue (boooo). She's also been working on purple. Nathan keeps growing at lightening speed (at 3 1/2 months and inching into 12 mts. clothes).
As I think back at where we were at last year around this time, I cannot help but praise the Lord that we have such an awesome family. Our children love each other and love us. They are so wonderful, and we would never change any of it for anything. I cannot wait until Natty and Nathan learn to love Jesus.

Isn't it funny how once you have children, it's hard to picture your life without them. It's also pretty awesome to watch your children learn to interact with each other and build the sibling bond. Can't wait to see you guys at Natty's party.
