Jonathan Andrew Hill

We are excited to announce the arrival of our son on August 15th.  I always knew he was coming early, and at 37 weeks, he decided to show up :)  7 pounds 7 ounces, 20.25 inches long and such a cutie.  We are enjoying the time we have together as a family, Kevin is off till September, so it has been such a huge blessing since he has been basically taking care of all of us right now :) 

Jonathan means "gift of God".  We decided on the name because Kevin and I both love the story and friendship of Jonathan and David in the Bible in 1Samuel 20. It's an awesome demonstration of true friendship and faith despite difficult circumstances. 

Here are some pictures of our little guy.  He fills us with such joy! His brothers are thoroughly enjoying having him home.  Elijah always wants to touch or kiss, or hold him.  And Jacob always says "I love you, baby" whenever he sees him and kisses him on his head.  Our boys are the best!  I love watching the interactions of all three boys together, it's such a blessing as parents to see your children love and care for each other. 

He must have been having a pretty funny dream, he was
making cute faces :)

Back in Michigan

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in California, hanging out with friends and family.  It's been nice though getting settled back in Michigan.  It's great getting to hangout as a family together without work and before school starts.  We're getting things ready for our little man to arrive, putting the crib together, sorting through clothes and trying to organize for 3 boys in our home :) 

Here's some more pictures from our time in CA...:)

Celebrating Father's day and Jeremy's birthday too:)

Beach bonfire and s'mores at Huntington Beach

All the kiddos, this was as good as it gets:)

Noni and her boys

Kevin and Elijah had a great time road tripping home and got to stop at a lot of fun places along the way.  Elijah is now a collector of magnets (just like daddy:)) and smooshed pennies.  It was nice getting to fly home, even though I was 35 weeks pregnant, and I am just thankful that we made it back with no problems.  Everything is looking good and now at 36 weeks, I am ready for this little boy to come!

Oklahoma City

Little Rock, Arkansas

We were able to go blueberry picking this weekend and it was a lot of fun.  The boys ate pretty much the whole time and we collected 7 pounds of blueberries.  I love picking my own fruit and making yummy things with them (bad sweet tooth!), so we had to make a pie that night, made muffins in the morning and am thinking maybe jam next.
