The beginning of something wonderful

As I am looking through all the pictures that have started trickling in of my sweet angel baby Carmen, I am noticing all the wonderful men that are in her life. As a mother of a baby girl, it's a new arena for me to explore, but I do know the importance that positive male role models play in children's life. I want Carmen to have healthy relationships with men and women as an adult and that begins early on with her mom, dad, and immediate family. Carmen has some amazing men, boys, and little boys in her life that will help guide and shape who she will become!

Cousin Gage and Carmen!
Her big brother Henry and Carmen!
Her great-grandpa and Carmen!
I think I knew that Carmen would complete our family once she arrived. I so enjoyed all my one-on-one time with Henry, but let's face it, there is only so much a mom can do with her son. There is a role that siblings play in each others life, and I am thrilled beyond words to see how that transforms in my kids' life! Being a mom of two is everything I imagined and so much more. It fulfills me and I see my husband in a whole new light. We are really in this together juggling family, work, and each other. It's crazy, scary, wonderful, and tiring all at the same time!

The fam!!!
