It wasn't that long ago that I celebrated my first Mother's Day. This weekend, Mark got his turn to celebrate! Landrie brings us SO much JOY and so many fun reasons to celebrate!!!
Landrie and her daddy at church on Father's Day. Mark got to stand up with the other dads for the first time! He didn't cry, but I may have gotten a bit teary-eyed. :)
Lunch at Joe T's on the patio. YUM!
Daddy letting Landrie try her first flour tortilla. She couldn't get enough of it! It looks like she loves Mexican food just as much as we do. She chowed down on fajitas, guacamole, tortillas and tomatoes!
Once again, we loved being able to finally celebrate this special day as a family of 3 this year. Infertility is so often viewed as the wife's problem or as something that only bothers the woman in the relationship, but believe me, the husband is right in the middle of things too! Mark was such an amazing rock through everything. I knew he would make a good daddy one day, but I have been blown away the past 9 months as I've watched him in action with our precious baby!
Baby, I am so blessed to have such an amazing man as a husband. I love you so much, and I've fallen in love with you all over again watching you take care of sweet Landrie Grace!! Instead of getting me midnight milkshakes and rubbing my feet while we waited for our bundle of joy, you recopied my messy handwriting with your neat handwriting on stacks of adoption paperwork, calmed me down before a nerve-wracking birth mom meeting, and raced us to the hospital to meet our baby girl. You helped with late night feedings, learned to pack a diaper bag like a pro and can make Landrie giggle like crazy!! I love how she stops what she's doing and looks around the corner for you when you come home at night. She loves you so much! She is such a daddy's girl and can't get enough of her daddy playtime. :)
Mark wouldn't be the man he is today without his sweet dad. We are so blessed to each have amazing dads! Happy Father's Day to each of you, and we can't wait to spend time with you soon!

Such a sweet post! I loved how you pointed out all the things they did to help us "survive" waiting for our babies...I laughed out loud when I ready how Mark rewrote everything on the applications! :)
