And Then There Were Four

Pop and I have come along way since our first date (Our Junior Prom) thirty nine years ago.  Two wonderful children, an awesome son and daughter in law, and now not 3, but 4 grandchildren make our life pretty amazing! We have been blessed beyond our wildest dreams! As I share these pictures of our new bundle of joy, I must add that Taylor was simply amazing during her pregnancy and delivery.  It has also been wonderful to watch both of them settle with ease into the role of new parents.  He's a very blessed little one! I am sharing just a few of the pictures of his first day.  Parents, grandparents, siblings, cousins, aunts and more waited patiently during the day for his entrance into the world!

This is blurry, but this was the first thing I saw when the grandparents entered the room shortly after his birth.  There's just something about seeing your baby holding his baby that tugs at your heart! That smile pretty much sums up how we all were feeling!


A love like no other.......



Nana and Pop were instantly in love!









And so were Tamma and Chief Pop!









So sweet!


Proud Daddy!  



Next up, the sisters!  For some reason, I never seem to get a picture of Tristan.  I'm going to work on that! He was there, and just as thrilled as the sisters.



This was taken shortly before he was born.  Sweet, sweet girls!


Doesn't she look wonderful! And how cute is that precious little one!  They were headed home here!


Sweet family of three! Four if you count Levi!


Here, he is wearing the outfit that both Reed and Caleb wore home.  So sweet!


These three were thrilled to have a new cousin!



Four generations of Marines


And this one is four generations of Marines and a Smith! :)



Lots and lots of love in this picture, and we can't wait to share it with our new little one!







Lindsey gently reminded me before he was born that I couldn't bother them everyday...........however, I seem to find lots of reasons to visit each day!  There's nothing quite like early morning snuggles!  He is a truly wonderful baby, and we are all so in love with this sweet little bundle! Next post, I will share more of the great grandparents!  This one has lots and lots of people to love on him!
