Complete
1+1=6
It will be a month on Friday since we became a family of 6. I didn't think it was possible to feel this amazing both spiritually and physically after having my 4th child. I feel so completely blessed by God. It might be a little cliché to say this, but WE ARE COMPLETE! I've said it after each one of my babies, and it's more true every single time. I love them all so much.
Bringing baby Seth home scared me a bit because I didn't know how Lucas was going to react- he's been the only little one in the house for the last three years. It also didn't help that he expressed his dislike for Seth before he was even born. All of that worry turned out to be for nothing. Lucas has been such a wonderful help. He loves to be present during diaper changes, grabbing the diaper and exactly two wipes each time, handing them to me when I need them. Quietly standing there talking baby talk and caressing Seth, keeping him calm. Whenever I grab my camera to take photos of Seth, Luke is right there, "Mom, take a picture of me and Seth." He's in almost every photo I have taken of Seth. It's so sweet how much he loves his little brother, his new best friend.
My boys...
Of course Karlee and Jacob have been amazing, they always are. They've picked up the slack a bit when it comes to chores and other random things Shawn and I need help with. It makes me so sad how old they are getting- it goes by so fast, I wish I could just bottle them up and keep them little forever. I remember when it was just the two of them...2 little babies in diapers at the same time. I was so young, I don't know why God thought I deserved them or trusted me, but I'm glad he did- I couldn't ask for better kids. All 4 of them are simply amazing<3

Lucas wouldn't let Jacob hold Seth in this photo, he HAD to do it.
