Well, our Little Brownie is officially 2 years old and it truly hurts my heart. If there were not several fresh babies around me to snuggle, I would be in FULL-ON baby mode. As I have spent the last couple of hours looking over pictures from the past year, I have teared up many times. My throat has swelled with emotion as I have seen what time can do. I have seen in 2 short years, a baby grow into a toddler. A toddler with so much spunk, it will make your head spin.
In keeping with my new tradition of having a "mother-son" day, Little Brownie and I ventured to a local indoor tree-house. We played with trains, cars, dinosaurs, climbed tree houses and colored. We played on a stage, colored with markers, jumped around in a ball pit and oh so much more. Little Brownie was in complete, earth-shattering bliss. Making sure that everyone was sharing, he barked orders at the other children as if they were part of his own family. We enjoyed ourselves to the max.
As I was rocking my Little Brownie to sleep tonight, I remembered what I was doing at the exact time 2 years ago. It brought back so many memories of his quick and exciting arrival. As I did last year, I am sharing my experience for 1 day. Today, on my Little Brownie's special day, you can hear the audio of the 911 delivery. In a post to come, you'll see updated pictures of our recent adventures. I'm just too tired to update the video from last year. Please enjoy and may it bring a smile to you. If you'd like to read his story as well, you may click
here to see the post from last year. I'll admit that I've re-read it several times over the last couple of days. It brings so many memories and emotions back to the surface. I forget the little details as time moves forward. I'm still in awe that I was blessed with a safe delivery of our son...and blessed with the experience.

Nancy Palmer sent this link and I just want to say this was SO precious!!!
This brought me to tears AGAIN this year!! It is just the most awesome thing and also awesome of you to share it. I can't get over Brian's composure while on the phone with the dispatcher! He was so calm while driving the interstate with a baby coming at the same time. And he was so sweetly and calmly advising you not to push. As inperfect as the scenario might sound, hearing you guys make it through it so successfully is truly one of the most beautiful things I've been blessed to hear. Happy 2nd birthday to the littlest Brownie! Hope you share this again next year so I can tear up and smile all over again! :)
I will never tire of seeing this blessing unfold and what a blessing this little boy has been. I cannot imagine our family without this bundle of pure fun! A BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR KOA!!!!! And a special thank-you to his awesome Mother for sharing all of this with us. I love you dear daughter-in-law!
Baby girl,
from the day you were born you have never ceased to amaze us! Like the others every-time I watch this video I cry and I thank God for the blessings bestowed on us that night and the night you were born! Your video reminds me of the the day you were born! It was eventful, though not as dramatic as Little Brownie's arrival, we at least made it to the hospital, but you too couldn't wait to enter this crazy world! I know your Brownies bring you as much joy, love, happiness, and blessings as you and your sisters have brought to your daddy and me! I have to tell you, for us we have the added blessing of being GRAND-parents, which we love almost as much as we loved being parents to three wonderful daughters! We love you and Happy Birthday wishes to our Little Brownie!
