When I pictured life with two kids...

When I found out Jack was on his way, I tried to imagine what my life would be like with two kids. These are the kind of moments I dreamed of. (And yes, I feel like this post should have some background music, like Shania Twain's "From This Moment".)






This picture needs an explanation. Jack was crying in his bed and I was in the shower. So Lucy took it upon herself to make Jack happy. She emptied both of his baskets of toys into his bed, and low and behold, he stopped crying. What a good big sister.





To top it all off, I had to include this video of the kids playing togehter. I don't know if a baby can laugh harder then Jack was. It was so cute. Sorry, it is really long, but A- you don't have to watch the whole thing, and B- it is so cute, how was I suppose to stop recording?

Oh my goodness Chantell, your kids are so dang cute! Love the moment they are in they grow so fast.
They remind me of when my kids were little like that.

I can't believe I have never seen Jack yet, I hope someday soon our vacations to Utah will fall at the same time so we can see each other. I miss you!

That was great! I love the video, so cute. It made me think about Hay and Gordon at those ages.

Hey Hammonds! How are you? Just wanted to pop in and say 'hi.' And, tell Shawn that we met his brother in Florida. We were in Miami a couple Sundays ago after getting off a cruise, and we went to his ward. It was fun to meet him and make the Hammond/Colorado connection!

Hope you are loving your new digs!

Chantell, good to see you're doing well! Your little girl is getting so big! (You knew me as Annicka Howard).
