I am so proud of these two cute little girls, they did so well for the first time.

8 months

Our sweet little girl is 8 months old already!

My how time fly's, much faster with our second child.

Peyton is Practically Perfect.

So sweet and happy, she loves to scream and roll everywhere.

Her shoes, hair accesories and socks come off as fast as she can get to them.

She sleeps most of the night, waking usually once to eat.

Her smile is so bright and contagious.

She is a mommies girl, but loves to play with dad when he gets home.

I feel so blessed to be a mom especially to my sweet little girls.

Ticklish

Some of the happiest moments in life are those we share with our families.

We sure miss seeing Uncle Dick each day. Especially at bed time when Brynlyn needs his loves and hugs! It makes us appreciate the times we do get to play with him. We had a great time hanging out, eating, watching some fights on TV and just enjoying each others company.

The girls love to visit and play. Taking over his house and being obnoxiously loud. Hope you have recovered by now from our xtraordinary visit. Love ya - us

Carefree and full of wonder

Last week when the weather was gorgeous, we spent loads of time outside. As much as Brynlyn could convince me was needed! She would live in the yard as long as someone is with her. The moment I go inside, she is right behind - wondering how long i will be?
I can't believe how big my girls are getting? We have so much fun each day. Brynlyn has been such a challenging little girl, at times I don't know what to do with her. Then I step back and watch her play so sweetly with her little sister.
Peyton is like a sweet but loud little tumbleweed. She squeals to hear the sound of her own voice and rolls from one side of the room to the other, pivoting on her belly to get things just out of reach. I love being mom to these two wonderful very different little girls!

Our Anniversary, Valentines!

Five years, two beautiful daughters, our first home, and so many wonderful experiences together! So lucky to be his for an eternity!

We forgot to take pictures of us on our date. The night was fun, Chad surprised me with tickets to see "O" at the Bellagio. Dinner before the show and a beautiful flower arrangement.

Valentines!

This year was super fun but low key.

I did the 12 days of Valentines for Chad - with fun little prizes each day.

He was so sweet and got Brynlyn and I flowers and cards.

Brynlyn was super cute about her flowers. She continually looked at them and said to grandma " I thought I was to little to get my own flowers, Wow."

After a yummy Valentines dinner with my parents I made a special treat.
Edible Chocolate ice cream bowls, they turned out great and everyone enjoyed them.
It was so great to have my parents visit and watch the kids while we had a night out.

Peyton enjoying the fun while trying to dodge her vegetables! It was a great Holiday with some of our loved ones.

LIttle Chef's

Aubrey and I took the kiddo's to Little Pastry Chefs this week. We made our own Pizza for lunch then decorated Valentine cookies for the dad's.

It was a fun little "play day" as Brynlyn called it.

It was nice to get out with the kids and enjoy some time with Aubrey.

New favorite activity

If we can't find our little Brynlyn... just look in the guest room! She is a TV fanatic! I have to lock her out of the guest room to keep her away from the only tv she can turn on.

I don't mind sometimes, because the house gets so quite and I get more done.

BuT... if she watches to much, we have a very cranky girl on our hands!!!
