Our Family

Why I Blog

I decided to start a blog not only so others can read about what's been going on with the Lawrence family, but also to help me remember these wonderful years while my son is still so young.
It feels like just a little while ago I told my husband that I was pregnant. We spent that evening curled up on the couch dreaming and talking about what it would be like to be parents. The joy and excitement was almost unbearable. Now, 18 months later, I look back and remember the way that felt. I thought it would be wonderful, but I had no idea just how awesome it would be!
I want to write about this awesome experience of motherhood and the joys of building a family! I know there is no way to truly express the joy I feel or the love that I have for my son and his wonderful father...but I'll do my best. :)

Good Memories

Rogan's Cousins!
 
Rogan loves his cousins. We have spent several weekends with my sister Tabitha, her husband, and their children many times but I choose this weekend to talk about because I have pictures to share!
This was both Mother's day weekend and Daphne's birthday. 


Daphne is an adorable child and she's also very photogenic so it was hard for me to choose a picture that I liked best. I love this picture because it captures the beauty of childhood and the "fairy tales" of a little girls imagination.   

My niece, Keira is such a doll. She's loving a sweet to everyone. She always trying to look out for Rogan and Daphne when they play and she's very good at mothering. I have so many fond memories of Keira and this weekend is one of them. 




One of my favorite memories from this trip was when we put both Rogan and Daphne in the crib thinking that they might enjoy playing with each other in there, but they would have none of it a raised such a ruckus that everyone had to come and see what the fuss was all about. 

I love my family and although Tabitha and I are not blood sisters (we're actually cousins) I feel that she has been more of a sister to me then most of my other sisters. She's been a wonderful example to me of what a Godly wife and mother should be and I know with out a doubt that if I ever need a shoulder to cry on of some good advice she'll always be there to help me out. Matt is pretty awesome too! I like to refer to him as SUPER DAD!!! I'm just so happy that I have wonderful family and that my son will grow up with such awesome cousins!


















The last picture I have for you today is to celebrate the little boy that made me a mother...my sweet little Rogan...Don't you just love his little foot.
