This adorable duo is Fr. Matkin (my husband) and his godson George (9 months old). My husband is singing "Itsy Bitsy Spider," and George is positively fascinated. We had the privilege of babysitting him while his parents closed on their new home. George is at that age where he is really connecting with people and learning so much. We just love him to pieces.
The picture above and below is my husband and I with one-month-old Bennett. I had the honor of babysitting while his mommy was busy. Oh what a sweet little lamb! We got to have breakfast, some stories, and then we went outside and enjoyed the trees and soft breeze. In no time, he was snoozing. Just holding this little angel in my arms felt wonderful. My mommy hormones were in high gear and it was amazing.
So thanks to our friends' children, we are getting some much-needed practice under our belts before our daughter Maddy is born. Thank goodness, because I've never been around children before. So any experience is deeply appreciated. I mean there is only so much one can learn from reading books about parenting.I am 33 weeks pregnant in this picture. My big belly was perfect for Bennett to rest on.

You are going to be a wonderful mother. I could not have hand picked anyone better.
Itsy Bitsy Spider is George's favorite song. I just learned that while we were working on the house. LOL.
You are going to be a great mommy. And Tim will be a great Daddy. :D
awwww I need a newborn fix! :o) My third son is named Bennett and I haven't seen another, so that was really cute to see. I can't wait to see how your children will change your art, or even if they will. Mine changed dramatically. I wish you an easy delivery!!
