THIS PAST WEEKEND, WE MET OUR DEAR FRIENDS THE BELLITOS AND LIVINGSTONS IN WHEATON, IL TO WELCOME BABY ELLIE TO THE LIVINGSTON FAMILY. SHE WAS AS PRECIOUS AS CAN BE, AND A VERY GRACIOUS HOST TO US ALL. EACH TIME THAT WE GATHER TOGETHER, WE ARE AMAZED HOW MUCH OUR LIVES HAVE ALL CHANGED IN THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF. WE HAVE ADDED FIVE CHILDREN TO OUR GANG AND ARE AWAITING ONE BABY BOY LARSON. THE DAYS OF LATE NIGHT DINNERS IN THE CITY HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY AFTERNOON LUNCHEONS AT OUR HOMES, BUT WE ARE GRATEFUL TO THE LORD FOR THE TREASURES HE HAS GIVEN US - SWEET ROBBIE & ELLIE LIVINGSTON, LUKE & RYAN BELLITO, AND CHARLOTTE. WE WONDER HOW LONG WE WILL BE ABLE TO MANAGE THE KIDS WITH MAN ON MAN COVERAGE?!

"WHY DON'T I HAVE ONE OF THESE AT MY HOUSE?!"
FEELING QUITE RELAXED.

OUR AFTERNOON WAS FILLED WITH BABY SWAPPING, EXCHANGING PRESENTS, GIGGLES, GREAT CONVERSATION, NAPS, AND OF COURSE A FEW CRIES. AT THE END OF THE DAY, I THINK THE ADULTS WERE AS TIRED AS THE CHILDREN. WHAT A MEMORABLE DAY WITH FRIENDS! WE ARE READY FOR BABY BOY LARSON TO JOIN THE CREW!
Great pics, Bec! Matt and I were EXHAUSTED Saturday night...he went to bed at 9:30, and I followed shortly after. How are we ever going to keep up with all those kids when they are even more mobile?!? We are all so blessed.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea! I had a hard time keeping my eyes open on the ride home...good thing I took the first shift of driving.
