Mason Mark Miller

The Miller family is now complete!  Mason Mark Miller was born at 9:53 am April 16, 2014, weighing in at 7 lbs, 13 oz and 20 inches long.  We are completely in love with our perfect little man!
The delivery went smoothly, besides me passing out, and Tyler and I are now enjoying the quiet time recovering with Mason.

Jackson and Harper were so excited the morning of Mason's arrival.  We tried to a make the day as normal as possible and dropped them off at school on the way to the hospital.  They proudly wore their Big Bro/Big Sis shirts!

Love at first sight! 


 
 
Let the introductions begin . . .
proud grandparents




 



 
And the introduction I was most nervous and anxious about was Jackson and Harper meeting Mason for the first time.  I had no doubt in my mind they would love Mason but I wasn't sure how they would initially react.  The introduction could not have gone any smoother.  J&H LOVE Mason more than I could have ever imagined. It was a moment, actually two hours, I will never forget!  Harper has officially claimed Mason as her baby! 

Harper immediately wanted to hold Mason's hand 
 

 We celebrated Mason's birthday with cupcakes and presents for the twins.  Mason knew exactly what the twins would want, a fire truck and a dollhouse!  What a good little brother :)
 looks like we need to enter Jackson in a pie eating competition since he seems to think he can eat without hands
 Jackson was so sweet with Mason!  He set aside his rough and tough toddler side to snuggle up to his baby brother.
 



 
 
 


 
 Although we are so ready to get home to the twins and begin our lives as a family of 5, we are thoroughly enjoying our time in the hospital with our newest little man!  Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers this past week!  We are so lucky to have such amazing and supportive family and friends.

Last snuggles as . . .

Tonight I soaked up my last snuggles as a family of four!  I'm beyond excited to welcome Mason into the world tomorrow however I find myself tearing up thinking about how our family dynamic is going to change.  All good changes, just different.   So I have been soaking up all my last moments with just J&H and I just can't get enough.  They have been so loving and fun lately!  And it will only get better with Mason joining our family.

Egg Hunting

Easter week is going to be pretty busy around the Miller house this year with the arrival of Mason.  We couldn't pass up the neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt today as it might be the only eggs we hunt this year.  J&H had so much fun hunting for eggs and even more fun eating all the goodies inside.

This sequence of pictures cracks me up.  These two are major cheese balls!



 


 Lets get this party started!


Digging into their stash!  Egg hunt turned sugar picnic.


Not too sure about the Easter bunny . . . 
But he might be cool enough for a high five . . . if I get a piece of candy 


 

Jackson got a kick out of sliding into his Auntie

Post egg hunt refueling with their neighbor friends!
