Brothers

Keaton and Andrew are so much alike and yet they are so different. Keaton was our second child. Our first son. He was born on July 15, 2005 and he was a big boy weighing in at 9 lbs. 9 oz. and 21 inches long. It was no wonder why everyone was asking me if I was having twins. After Madalynn he was a breath of fresh air. Of course we worried the whole pregnancy but once he came, we couldn't have been any happier than we were.


Andrew was born on Dec. 22, 2006. I was induced almost a week early to prevent us from all being in the hospital on Christmas day. He weighed 8 lbs. 7 oz. and was 21 inches long. He was so ready to come and make his grand entrance. He didn't cry or scream. He was so alert and calm. He was an angel baby. We were so blessed to have him. Keaton was excited to have a brother.


Now that Andrew is walking and running around with Keaton, they have become such good friends. Andrew is constantly in his shadow if it is a good day. They both love sports, playing outside and just being together. It is so fun to watch them interact with each other. Keaton has tried to help me out quite abit with Andrew. It has allowed me to sit back and watch them.

One of my favorite quotes that I have is that "A brother is better than a superhero." I think in our case that would be true. I feel so blessed to be their mother. They have brought me so much happiness. I guess you could say I am desperatly in love with my children.
