Presenting...Drew Michael Croshaw!

The kids absolutely ADORE him, and can't say enough how tiny he is, and cute, and sweet!

Drew was just out of his Bili Bed, hence the diaper-only attire. The kids just want to hold him all the time and I love it. It's really brought them together, and they love to just watch his every move!

Here's our little angel, in a super-soft blanket from Mimi. Who do you think he looks like?


This is what Faith spends her days doing lately - kissing Drew! I think she might even kiss him more than I do, and that's a lot!



They are so happy to have a new brother - AND we'll be moving into our new house this week. Thank you so much to everyone who helped with the big unpack yesterday. I can't wait to go and see it tomorrow morning!
We also had a delicious dinner brought by the sweet Nelson Family, complete with Rootbeer floats. That certainly hit the spot, and their generosity was amazing! In times like these, when I am on the receiving end, it reminds me to really Pay it Forward whenever I get a chance.

Okay, so I have been reading your blog for a few months, but didn't want to pester by commenting because I wasn't sure you would remember me. (I am a friend of Adri's from high school and we met a few times.) But I just had to say...

CONGRATULATIONS! He is beautiful, as are all your sweet kids. Enjoy that sweet baby.

Vanessa, We are so excited to hear the news of your new little guy. He looks just like a Croshaw--to me he looks a lot like Grant. I'm so glad you and Drew are doing well. We hope things go well for you in the next few weeks.

Love,

So fun. I can imagine how much your other kids are loving on him. What a great blessing for your family. He is certainly gorgeous and looks like he fits right in line with those other boys. You, by the way Vanessa, look too good to have just had a baby.

Congratulations! He really is just amazing. The power of these new little spirits never ceases to amaze me.... And as for Vanessa... superwoman doesn't even come close! Giving birth and moving--within days of each other? Are you kidding me? You're definitely my hero! Let us know if you need anything at all! Hope to see you soon! (Drew has been one of the names we've been considering for our little guy, too! I love it!)
