{Page Maternity}

UGH! I'm so excited to share this with you. I have an amazingly beautiful friend, and she is pregnant with her second amazingly beautiful child! I love almost every picture from this shoot because of how great Page looks. Her skin, hair, and eye color are so perfect.

Everyone is eagerly waiting for Braden to make his appearance in the world, but until then, he looks great in his mommas tummy.

 Stunning

One of my favorites

And this one..

 See, I told you she was beautiful :)

Love this shot

Another favorite, work it girlfriend

 

Braden will be well protected by his 2 older bros

They think I am pretty cool

Page and Jordan thank you for letting me be a part of this. I love these pictures and I love both of you and all of your babies :) Page hang in there, you only have a few more weeks.

{Polar Opposites}

I find it funny how different your children can be. E and La have their similarities but are very different. They are still young so they could drastically change, but since pregnancy they are both very different. Elijah was So easy! I never had morning sickness nor did I have nausea towards anything. I didn't crave any crazy sweets and I always kept my energy. He didn't sit on any awkward organ or loop his elbow under my rib cage. He came on his own (no induction) a week early and my labor was 7 hours. E was a good boy from the get go, until he was born. He cried a lot. There was colic and insane sleeping patterns and he was under weight. Then when 5 months rolled around and he was awesome! Except for his crazy attachment issues with Lee and I. He is shy, and kind of timid with new people or a crowd, but he is getting better.

La was the opposite pregnancy. Though I still didn't have morning sickness or nausea, I craved sweets and was tired all the time (while chasing around a 1yr old). She laid in the most awkward ways which seemed to feel like she was wrapping her toes around my spinal cord (I know that isn't possible). My body always hurt and she was breach up until 36 or 37 weeks. I had to be induced with her a week and a half past my due date. The labor was only 3 hours but it was more painful. La weighed 8lbs 10oz. E only weighed 6lbs 14oz. She was an easy baby though. She ate really well, and was always content. La would let anyone hold her, she wasn't crazy attached. Shyness is not an issue with her, but she has no fear, which is exhausting.

Here is a bit of my little opposites

Unsure

Uh oh

We lost her

And while sister was loosing her cool, brother was keeping his just fine....

 A little much

Wow

My loves are very different, it is so much fun though. They are the best kids the Lord could have given us. Tears or laughs, they are both pretty amazing.

Happy Tuesday!

{Rainy Day}

I would like to start off by saying how much I LOVE rainy days! They make my soul smile :)

They make me want to drink hot tea and stay in pajamas all day long (I say that like I don't stay in my pajamas all day long, no matter what the weather is like). However, my grass in drowning, there is a pool in my back yard that I did not have a say-so in. And my children are starting to hate me go crazy inside. I thought today was a good day to post some pictures of outdoor play in the sunshine from a few weeks ago.

Lee and I have a fantastic lawn boy.

This girl really likes to watch the cute lawn boy....

...and stare at her cute shoes that were once the cute lawn boys.

I'm a pretty funny mom, I guess.

Airplane. Duh.

I'm assuming  I got this look because of my interrupting some serious underwear picking..



Stay dry everyone and enjoy your rain boots!

I was going through some of my pictures and thought I would share some. These were taken way back in February when the great "Blizzard of 2011" hit. I was looking at them and thinking about how great my husband is. He is wonderfully perfect :). I hope one day our kids will look back and truly recognize what a great dad they have. Its amazing.

It would be a total waste to have a blizzard and not make a snowman.

 It would be a total waste to have a blizzard and not check out your husband hind parts when he bends over :)

Cutie

And why not have a ton of pictures of a handsome young boy.

Now this is our snowman. He is not the best looking thing, but he will do for our families first snowman. His eyes are made of oreos, his nose of a grape, and his mouth of bologna. This says that the mom of the household is not well prepared for making snowman faces.

Finish with lunch with your little sister :)



I am blessed everyday to look out of my window and see my husband playing with our kids or mowing the lawn. I love walking into our living room and see my love kicked back in his chair snoozing (most of the time). I'm excited for Saturdays when we all get to walk up and Dadda doesn't have to leave to go to work. He makes our days better. Thanks Hubby, for being you.
