Getting Caught Up

I promised posts...so here we go. But how do you get caught up on 2 months worth?? I've decided I didn't want to bore myself or you with the ins and outs and ups and downs of the last couple months, but I've chosen 2 pics of each kiddo and a family shot that I wanted to remember about the last little while.

So here it is..the update.....

Its not a great Halloween pic but its what I want to remember about her first Halloween. She NEVER snuggles--but every time we put this warm, fuzzy costume on she dropped. And I LOVED it. So this is how she spent Halloween, in my arms.


And this is how I want to remember Brin's 4th and 5th month. SMILEY SMILEY. I just love her smile--so contagious.

Now onto Kenzie....


Kenzie was the happiest Snow White ever! She loved putting on that beautiful dress and she transformed heart and soul into a princess. And isn't this picture beautiful? My AMAZING sis-in-law Jess took family pics of us while she and Robbie were here in November. (which so fun) You can see a whole fairy tale about this girl on her blog at www.bellaraephotography.blogspot.com. She did an INCREDIBLE job on our pictures. We LOVE them!

And here is Kenzie un-edited. This poor girl was sick most of the last month it seems with pretty much anything and everything you can think of. This was taken one night after dinner after a week of being "shut-in"..we had to get out and go for a drive. So I said something like, "Go get a jacket," and she came out of her closet looking like this. "Kenz what's the back pack for, we're not getting out of the car." She said, "Mom, its keeping Shamu safe." I LOVE moments like this as a mom. I love seeing what makes them tick. And even though it can be so hard to have sick kiddies....I kind of like how they become so meek, and submissive, and snuggly. You gotta appreciate the good times I guess. :)


And here....sums up our life. (again--thanks for the pics Jess)...Its all about the girlies.

okay two more pictures..I just LOVE kissing this little girls cheeks!!


and how sweet is this daddy/daughter pic??

Melts my heart.
