So Blessed!

Having a baby has reminded me how nice it is to be able to sleep through the night! But no matter how tired I am, or the fact that I have nothing to wear because it doesn't fit, doesn't make me want to change a thing. Briggs is such a blessing. It is funny how now that he is here, I can't imagine our family with out him. We all love him so much!

I thought that it would be Jaygen that would be my big helper, but Pace is the one that wants to be a part of everything. He loves handing me the diapers and wipes and wants to help burp Briggs. The cutest is when Pace dances for Briggs or pretends like he is "getting" Briggs and then turns and runs. Pace is such a fun kid. Jaygen just likes to keep tabs on Briggs. He always wants to know where the baby is, and is always kissing and hugging him. He is an affectionate little guy. Both boys are doing great with all the changes that come with having a new baby. Jaygen asked me if I am going to have another baby because my tummy is still big. Just what I wanted to hear!!! :)

This past week has been a roller coaster of emotions and everything else, but when I look at sweet, innocent little Briggs I can't help but count all my blessings. Todd is a wonderful husband and has been a great help with the baby. I really can't believe that I have THREE little boys now! When I say that to Todd, he reminds me that I have four boys. :) I am definitely outnumbered but I wouldn't have it any other way. I love my little family!!!

IT'S A. . .

THANK HEAVEN FOR LITTLE BOYS!!

IT'S A . . . . . . BOY! Briggs Wade Mullen was born on November 18 at 8:18 p.m. He weighed 8 lbs and was 21 inches long. He has tons and tons of long black hair.

What Would I Do With Out Them?!

These last days until the baby comes are killing me, but my boys seem to make me laugh everyday and remind me how much I love them and being a mom! If they aren't doing something funny to make me laugh, then they are saying something funny. Pace keeps asking "baby come?" and Jaygen told me I look like a hippo! :) If I ask Jaygen to bend over and pick something up for me, he grunts and says "I can't, my belly is too big." I wonder where he has heard that? Yesterday Jaygen asked me if the baby has knocked yet so we knew it was ready to come out. It made me laugh so hard! If only it was that easy!

Jaygen and Pace are both going to be great big brothers. I can't wait to see what our new addition will be. Jaygen says he is only going to help with the new baby if it is a sister - we will see!!
