On May 3, 2006, James Brandon Shields Jr. came into the world and made it a better place for sure. James is such a blessing to all of us: his mommy and daddy, Grandma Lisa and Grandpa Jim, Aunt Jenna, Uncle Jacob, Uncle Nathan and Aunt Holly, Grandpa Rick and Grandma Karen, and all of our extended family. He is one special little boy who brings an immense amount of joy to all of our lives. Now James is 18 months old and has a new baby brother on the way! I thought it would be neat to post some newborn pictures of James so we could compare them to the ones I post of Cooper.
