rock-a-bye

Tate's taken the regression route to this new baby stuff.

He hasn't slept in a crib for many many months, but today as I was peeking under the crib looking for more diapers, I heard a "ta da!" and there he was in the crib-finally figured out how to climb up!He enjoys Avery's swing, too.

Happy New Year!

I just love this shot. It sums up the holidays (almost)--fun with family and games. The one thing missing in the picture to sum it all up is the yummy food =)

Excuse me!

Tate always had a "milk drunk" face after feeding. Avery has a completely different burp face. Night and day folks!
In every way!

Good Times

Avery was blessed at church this past Sunday.
Most of the family came and it was so nice to have so many
of us together!

I hadn't taken this dress out of it's plastic until that morning and was excited
to find that it has toulle underneath for poofiness!!
Now I'm wracking(sp?) my brain to find another excuse
to put it on her again because I love it!

Such a shame to wear it once and be done.

Anyway, thanks to all who came!
We loved having you!

This and That

Charlie Brown's new face he gives for the camera. Anytime I snap a shot of Avery, he wants one, too.

This is how the princess sleeps. Eric calls all her pants "lady pants" for some reason. These are some of my favorite lady pants.

Now that we have the princess, Tate's been demoted to dish-washer. Poor dude.

Avery Bear

Bre requested some pictures...This is what mom bought her today. As you can see, Avery loves to play dress up and model.

She especially loved this ensemble. Seriously, this is the best picture we could get because if you didn't catch it already, I was being sarcastic when I said she loves photo shoots =) I've never been into frilly socks, but it must be something that comes with being a mom to a girl because look what I bought today!

Dad watched Tate while us ladies shopped today and look what we came home to.

One Month Old Today!

Yes, yes, I know she has a double chin, but that's all the rage now. I just had to snap this shot today because of that short and sassy do with the ear flip that I love. And naturally, I had to share with you =)
