That Drew, He Grew and He Grew and He Grew!

Drew came to the hospital today to visit his Mama, Daddy, and little brother Charlie. Now that Amanda and I have had a couple of days to get to know Charlie, seeing Drew again for the first time in two days just made us both all the more aware of how much Drew has grown recently.

One of our favorite bed time stories to read with Drew is "Love You Forever." The book for those of you that aren't familiar, is about a little boy whose mother "held her new baby and very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth..." Throughout the story, we get a glimpse of the different stages and ages of this little boy's life from the time he's a baby all the way up until he's a grown man with a baby of his own. Every other page or so the book transitions from each stage and age as the little boy grows. Its this part of the book that is one of Drew's favorite parts to read along to - "Well that little boy grew. He grew and he grew and he grew."

Indeed. That little boy grew. I dug back through some pictures to see what Drew looked like a year ago. One year ago, we were in Destin, Florida on vacation with Amanda's family.

We've had lots of visitor's the last couple days, and countless people to thank for all the love, support and warmth they've shown us. Here's a few more pictures. Enjoy!
