Cousin Besties

 
Tinzley got her first visit from her cousins Paige, Hunty, Caige, and Alyah today!  I couldn't believe how much Paige has grown!  Last time we saw her she seemed like a tiny little baby still.  When you put her next to little Tinz she looks like a giant.  I can't believe they grow that fast!  I think every night that I wish my kids could just stay tiny little babies, but babies who slept through the night. 


It was fun to see how each of them reacted to Tinzley.  I have a feeling her and her cousins are going to be good friends.  I know that when Josh & Kayla found out we were pregnant too, they desperately wanted us to have a girl so Paige and her could be best friends.  All we have to do now is to get them to move close so they can be besties. 


I love this pictureof these two!  Alyah was so excited to meet Tinz.  She got so upset with her mom when she found out she came to the house without her while she took a nap.  They had to make a second special trip just so she could see Tinzley.  It was cute!  It seems like not long ago Alyah was the only little baby in the family.  Now they are everywhere, lol!  Here's to a fun day with the cousins!

A Birthday Wish


This year, I really didn't have any wishes for my birthday.  That is not until Tinzley's due date had come and gone with no Tinzley.  While sitting on the hospital bed the morning she finally came, I decided the best birthday present would be to be able to leave the hospital on my birthday. 

Not only did I get my wish, but Zach surprised me with the most beautiful bouquet of flowers!  Not only are they beautiful, but it had calla lillies which I love (and which are my favorite flower). Thank you so much sweetie!  It made my day and I couldn't have asked for a better set of gifts!  You are an amazing husband!  I am grateful to have you in my life and for the two beautiful children we have together.   What a wonderful birthday this was, especially since most of it was spent in a hospital room.

Baths are for the Birds...

 
Today Tinzley got her first bath!  To sum up her experience in three words, she hated it!  Stetzen didn't like his wash cloth baths either.  I can't say that I would blame them.  If I had to have a wash cloth bath instead of soaking it up, I might get a little upset too! 
 
 
After I got her all wrapped up and dressed, she was as happy as could be.  Now she can put a checkmark on one of the many baby firsts she'll get to experience.  

The Newest Addition to the Young Family!!

 
With the greatest joy, the Young Family introduces our newest edition...
 
Tinzley JaNae Young 
 
We absolutely adore her and are glad that she is a happy and healthy baby.  We love these amazing photos taken of our baby girl.  My only wish is that we could have gotten a family shot when Stetzen was here at the hospital.
