Joshua is born!

After 9 months of being pregnant...

Joshua Ryan Holt was born at 1:53am on Saturday, May 23rd.
Weighing in at 9 lbs 1 1/2 oz and 22 inches long.

Jordan is excited about his new little brother.
When asked how he liked Joshua, Jordan said, "He doesn't do much."

Zachary is a Joshua magnet.
Where ever Joshua is, Zachary is right there too.
He loves to hold him, pat his head and give him kisses.

Jason is excited to get to hold Joshua when he gets a chance. With work, church callings, just starting his master's program, and Jordan and Zachary demanding attention, he stays busy.

Miriam is a tired, but proud and happy mom of three boys.

Destin Beach Trip

We went to Destin in May (2 weeks before I was due, don't tell my doctor) for a family vacation with Jason's parents.

The guys played in the sand...

while I watched.
