Us.

I feel like I never take pictures of Dave and myself together any more. Looking back on the past year, I bet 95% of our photos are of Trey and Easton. And some of them include Dave and myself. Which is just great because who wouldn't want a million pictures of their sweet babies? We went to Liberty Park today and I made sure we took a picture of us. Because... well... because it's nice to look back at pictures of just us. I like pictures of me and my dear sweet husband together. So we made progress today! Now if only I can make sure to take pictures of us when I've actually washed my hair, done my hair, and applied a bit of makeup... ;)

eleven

I'm late on this 11 month mark. (Better late than never though!) So now that Easton and Trey are 11 months old they both have two teeth that have come in. Both of them have two bottom teeth. They are pulling themselves up onto everything and figuring out how to get into everything!!! It's chaotic sometimes but it's so much fun. They are both so sweet and lovable and I'm so lucky to be their mom. It's crazy to me that they are almost 1 year old because they are still so small and seem so baby-like to me. Maybe once they are walking I will actually feel like I have toddlers on my hands! Here's to 11 months! :)


They love getting into their drawers or the laundry basket and pulling out all their clothes!!

Blog envy

Does anyone else have blog envy? Like, do you ever read someone's blog and just love it? Love how they write. Love how they express themselves. And then wish your blog was more like theirs? Cuz I sure do! There are two blogs that I envy, but I shall not name them. One is on my list of friends. I love her blog because she writes so well, and shares such personal stories, but doesn't do it in a manner that makes you feel uncomfortable. She shares the funniest little things about her cute little family, and it seems they are always doing something fun! And she does such a great job at blogging about all of it!

The other blog I envy belongs to someone not on my friends list, but I do know her from High School. She could blog about anything, like, the dumbest most pointless thing ever, and I'm still interested in reading about it. She also writes very well and she makes her blog funny to read. On top of that... she has this really creative take on photography. She's not a professional. But she seems to take pictures of just about anything. I definitely envy her blog the most. I wish I could blog every day and make my life seem interesting like this girl does. But unfortunately, everyone who reads my blog would die of boredom if I did that. It would go something like this... "Today I woke up. I went to the gym. I ate. I changed babies diapers all day. I hung out with babies. I was really excited when Dave came home from work. We ate dinner. We watched some T.V. We read. We went to bed." Then the next day, I would just sign into my blog, copy, paste, and TA-DA! I'd have my blog written for that day. And the next... and the next... so this girl's blog is awesome because like I said before, everything about it is so creative, and I completely envy it! :)

Easter weekend.

We took family pictures at Wheeler Farm the Saturday before Easter. I was the photographer... don't judge the pictures because I ain't no pro. We had a color scheme but the weather was chilly so Dave put a black jacket on. Black was not part of the color scheme, but I didn't even notice until after we were done taking pictures... one of those things I will hopefully notice in photo shoots to come because one day I'll be pro ;) For now I've got a really nice camera so I figure I can play around a bit. Aside from pictures we colored eggs. Ate several dinners. And spent lots of time with family. Hope everyone had a great Easter.

Some of my personal favorites

Hmmm....

I feel like blogging tonight... but I honestly don't know what to blog about. So here's what's been going on as of late. NOT A WHOLE LOT!!! ;) We've been consumed with school since the semester is coming to an end. And of course... we're busy with babies! Although, on occasion we know how to have a good time.

We celebrated two Birthdays. First my brother Aaron turned 25. For his Birthday we went bowling with the family.

My dear husband turned 26. The celebration was neverending... We had multiple Birthday celebrations with family and friends. A nice double date to Rodizio Grill. Dave got a new racquet for racquetball. A GPS. And a giftcard to Market Street. And I really slacked at taking pictures :(

My sister often comes with me to run errands. I evidently need extra help. Going anywhere alone these days is just too exhausting. (She's great.) I asked her to come to The Pottery Barn with me because I had a gift card I wanted to use. She in turn asked me if I would journey with her downtown to see a friend. I agreed and in the process, I let a total bum hold both my children. Am I crazy??? He was really nice and asked if he could hold my babies! How do you say no without feeling like you are saying no for the wrong reason!? I didn't want to come off as stereotypical. She had my camera and photographed the exciting event.

Dave has a "thing" for writing me cute messages with baby toys. It's sweet :)

Trey and Easton had their first haircut! So exciting. They both did a really great job.

We babysat cousin Carson a couple days in a row and enjoyed having him around. Babies interacting with other babies is soooo entertaining. Love taking nakey pictures of these boys.

Other than that... I'm just looking forward to this semester being over. I'm officially registered for two summer classes. So even though I'll hardly catch a break, I will catch a little one! Three weeks of no school will be wonderful. Here's to going to school for the rest of my dang life... at least it feels that way :/ I'm just thankful for all the good stuff that occurs in the midst of school. CHEERS to that!
