Smile for the Camera

Mom:  "Hey sweet girl!  Smile for mommy."

Dad:  "Hey Bet'any, Smile for daddy"

Morning Cartoons

This image will be less posed all too soon!

This one, sweet and Anna-Kate's idea

The big teaching the littles

Good Sleep

When people say, "sleep like a baby," 

this has to be what they mean

Baby in Blue

This post really needs no captions, a sweet photogenic baby

6 weeks old

My 2 favorites for last

this big grin

this...

...Elvis grin!

Irresistible

These forehead wrinkles

Those big sweet eyes

Being third

while trying something new

means you are very well tended to

Girl Time

Does it only apply to the Grinch, or can my heart swell 3x its normal size at the sight of something precious?!  

It really doesn't get sweeter than this.

I have day dreams of many girl times just like this one for many years to come...

Baby Dedication

In front of our church family, we take a moment to remind ourselves that as much as we already love and enjoy this sweet baby Bethany our goal is to raise her in such a way that points her to Christ.  We are thankful God gave her to us and pray how we raise her honors Him!

Puzzle Whisperer

Benjamin's current obsession, 24 pieces or a 100 pieces, he loves to tackle them and conquers them more quickly than I ever expect!

My Helper

Love his enthusiasm for being mommy's helper!

In Her Nest

If you are curious where our little sleeping beauty spends much of her time...

How comfortable does she make this look?!

Those lips...I can't even...

How she and I spend many of our afternoons together

"When you snooze, you lose,"

or so Gladys says

Gladys agrees 

that is one comfortable way to sleep!

First Smiles

There is nothing sweeter than first smiles.  They are quick but they are so rewarding!

this boy

fighting nap times

Sometimes naps still win

All the time, 

this boy makes me smile!

1 Month

one month with this cutie!

no one sweeter to round out our party of 5

You have been smiling since Tuesday, 4/5 weeks.  I can't wait to capture that grin on camera!
