Fun Times

Lately we have been snapping pictures of the girls with our phones a lot. It is just the easiest and always around. Here are a few that I have taken.

Avery is such a happy baby. She loves to talk and babble all the time. In the picture above, she is in the middle of saying something.

A few months ago, Daniel and Emma had a special date night. They went to see a Cirque De Soleil show here in Houston. (I know the picture is old, but still super cute).

Emma is preparing to go on her trip to Pop's house. This will be the 2nd time she is doing this without Mommy and Daddy. She can't wait to go and talks about all the things that she will get to do. Here she is with her new huge pink suitcase. Of course, it had to be pink.

Last night was pretty funny. I fed Avery her dinner and then she sat in her high chair while we were eating our dinner. After about 5 minutes she was sound asleep in her highchair. This little one can fall asleep anywhere.

Fun Phone Pictures

Here are just a few fun pictures from my phone. They may be kind of blurry, but still cute!

This was for Emma's ballet recital pictures. The big recital is this weekend!!

Smiley Baby!

Little Miss Sassy after her hair cut. She got 2 inches taken off.

Love the chunky baby! Avery is such a happy girl.

Our Family

This past weekend was Avery's baptism. Here is one picture of our family that was taken. More to come, as soon as we slow down a little (hopefully soon).

Emma's 3rd Birthday

Our Emma turned 3 on the 18th of January. I cannot believe that she is 3 years old. It is so crazy! We had a great week celebrating her birthday, as well as mine. We basically celebrated her birthday the whole week. My sister-in-law (Daniel's sister, Missy) was here to help celebrate. Emma loves to tell everyone that she is three now. We had her birthday party at My Gym on Saturday. It was a lot of fun. It really seemed like her and all of her friends had a great time. Thanks everyone for coming.

The ball pit was a huge hit

Emma made her exit from the play area on a motorcycle.

I couldn't help but post a picture of this sweet angel.
Avery will be 7 weeks old this week.

Time to Update

It has been forever since I updated our blog. A lot has happened since my last post. Emma has gotten so big. She started pre-school in August and has done wonderfully. She loves going, loves her teachers and really seems to love the other kids. Besides starting school, Emma has had a huge change in her life. We welcomed our second baby girl into our lives in December. Avery Reese was born on December 9th. She has been such a joy to have. She is a really good baby and just kind of goes with the flow of our lives. Emma has adapted well to being a big sister. She loves to give Avery hugs, kisses and even wants to help change diapers. I posted quite a few pictures below and still have more to come. Enjoy!

Emma and Avery - Mommy and Daddy love both of you so much and are so excited to watch you two grow up together.

Big Girl Update!

Emma has really started becoming such a big girl lately. We have totally got her off her pacifier. She will tell you that the paci fairies came and took them to all the babies. This is something I read and it worked for Emma. It has been almost two weeks and we have had no melt downs (knock on wood). Emma has also taken her first trip without Mommy and Daddy today. She went to Austin to stay with Pop (my Dad) until Friday. We already miss her!!!

We visited the Easter Bunny at the mall this past weekend. Emma loved saying hello to him from a distance and wanted to touch him, but as soon as she sat on his lap the smile went away. There was no crying just no smiles either. I posted some pictures of her before it was our turn to sit with the Easter Bunny.

She never wants to look at the camera

Silly face
