With a whole new family member in her arms, she looked around their house at all the pictures and memories on the walls and realized their family was changing. The first boy in the family. They knew exactly how to play dress up and host tea parties, but what would raising a boy be like? They looked at each other and imagined him growing up. Wondering what kinds of foods he’ll eat, what his voice will sound like, and which one of them he’d look more alike. Now, they are a family of five and their hearts have never been so full.

I’ve watched Kindsey and Oaklyn grow up. I’ve watched them explore the world and roll their eyes when its time to clean up their messes, but now they get to do the same with baby Kam. They get to teach him how to tie his shoes and annoy mom and dad. They get to hold him and tell him it will be okay when he’s fussy. They get to become big sisters – together. I can already tell Kam is going to make the best brother, never even squirming when the girls get rambunctious and want to play. These three kiddos are so lucky to have each other as forever best friends, but even more lucky to have Tara and Kyle to teach them and love on them as they grow up.

Tara & Kyle,

Watching your family grow before my eyes has been such a blessing. I know that Kam is going to grow up just as fast as Kindsey and Oaklyn have, so I hope you can soak up this newborn season. Remember what it feels like to look around at your family and see a happiness all around you. Hold onto these moments of the girls arguing over what the should play and pushing each other on the swing set, while Kam squirms around in your arms. I hope these images serve as a reminder of the love between you. I love getting to be apart of your lives and save these unforgettable moments for you!
