We'll miss you friends!

I have some major catching up to do, and I figured the best thing to do is to start with the most recent things and then 'catch up' as I can.

Our friends the Lee, Denise, and Jackson officially moved yesterday to NC. Lee got a major promotion at a great company in NC. He's going to be vice president or something crazy like that. So sad for us, but we are so excited for them. What an opportunity and blessing!

We've been spending tons of time with them the last few weeks getting in every bit of Jack that we could. Landree and Jackson play SO well together. They actually play the best together of all of her little friends. They are only 9 days apart, and we are going to miss them terribly. Along with Lee and Denise too. They lived about 1/4 of a mile or less from us so aside from having a great friend near by it was super convenient to stop by for an egg, pepper, or whatever exotic spice I needed (like cumin :). I called her last night after they stopped by to tell us by on their way out of town and told her to stop the moving truck I needed some oregano. What will we do without them?

All joking aside...Lee and Denise moved here the same time we did, we started attending the church around the same time, they've been in the same family group as us, served in our youth ministry, we were due a day apart and had Jack and Landree only 9 days apart, and have lived so close to each other for so long it's hard to imagine what it will be like without them right down the street. We plan to visit a lot! Here are a few pictures from a little going away party we planned for them.

We had the party in our youth room at church and the kids had so much fun playing the piano and singing :)

John Parker

Update: I added a few more pictures since earlier today. John Parker is 11 weeks old now. We tried to take a few pictures this morning, but I don't think I had my camera on all the right settings and we had a lot of 'help' {i.e. Cooper and Landree, drums, an aquadoodle, baseballs, etc. in the background}. I did get a few good ones. These are my favorites:

Welcome to the World John Parker!

This morning at 9:37 am John Parker Brewer was welcomed to the world by his mom, dad, brother Cooper and Grandparents Bobby and Wylone Brewer and Jean Bailey. Congratulations Brewers! We love you and can't wait to watch John Parker grow!

Oh, and he is a big baby! His stats: 9 lbs 12 oz and 22 3/4 inches long (and he's a week early!) Jennifer grows big babies!

The proud Papa: I love seeing how excited Michael is. I was there when Cooper was born too and I'll never forget how nervous and worried Michael looked. He's a pro now-love the grins and excitement!

On a side note: Did you know there are perfect toddler size closets in hospital rooms?

The germ freak in me can't stop thinking about the fact that the 'closet' said dirty linens on the outside...it was empty and we didn't notice that until after the fact!
