Nathan and David came over to bake cookies on Saturday. This is one of my most favorite traditions. I am the auntie that the boys make cookies with. They both still look forward to coming to my house for this special day. I know how very blessed I am that they still want to spend time with me. They seem so young but I know that in the blink of the eye they will be all grown up will have better things to do than bake cookies with auntie Jess. Oh how I cherish these days...
On Sunday Chris and I had the privilege of meeting our new nephew, Wyatt David, for the first time. He is such an angel. We are so blessed and excited to be a part of his life. I introduced myself to him as auntie Jess and told him I would be his favorite auntie (given my previous auntie experience and the fact that his other aunties live hours away I figure I'm a shoe-in)!

Oh my, that is the sweetest little baby! Have you gotten to see Caleb yet? What is it with all these boys in your family? :)
How special that you have this tradition for the boys...they will never forget it and you will always be very special to them. Good for you to keep up such memories with them. Nathan is looking so big...I guess that makes sense, since Evie is also such a big girl. When I look at her I still see her beautiful baby face and can't believe she is this "tweenager" with a mind of her own. It is so true what more seasoned parents have always said...it is so much easier when they are little babes...it is such a fleeting time...enjoy that little one, and your big ones!

What precious boys, all three of them! It's so nice to see nephews and Aunties loving each other so much. You will be special to them their entire lives.
Oh and you're right!! You will be a shoe-in for favorite Auntie. You ARE so good at it!!!
