HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!





my sister-in-law, amy, is amazing...not only is she an unbelievable photographer, she's also extremely creative! she made all of the kids valentine's shirts and then took incredible pictures of all of them together...it was so much fun! happy valentine's day everyone!!

eating "big girl" food...






here are some pictures from mali's first feeding...she was a bit confused at first but ended up doing really well! most of it ended up on her face and the bib but she did manage to swallow some...as determined by her diaper the next day!!

extreme home makeover adventure




my dad nominated his friend and his family for extreme home makeover. he is a board member of my dad's nonprofit organization and he runs his own church and helps out his community in a huge way. a couple of my friends, their kids, debra, my parents, mali, and myself all showed up for the "reveal". we had so much fun but had a hard time seeing everything cuz there were so many people there! anyway, here are some fun pics that we got - you can definitely tell when we started yelling "move that bus!"

b's new friends


well, we have to be discreet because a certain tv show hasn't aired yet. but the other day we were very privileged to meet a very special family who gives so much to their community that a certain tv show wanted to give something back to them. my dad nominated this family and they invited us over for coffee the other morning and b had a great time playing with two of their daughters. thanks guys for all that you do for God's Kingdom and for your community, and thanks for giving b such a fun time!

chris and his baby girls


the girls snuggled with chris as we watched the super bowl yesterday.

mali and kaden



here's mali with her cutie pie boyfriend kaden.

going...going...gone.




after jumping vigorously for quite some time, mali couldn't fight it any longer. she wanted to jump so badly but just had no energy left. she finally gave her little legs a rest and drifted off into jumperoo land. sweet dreams little mali...

jumperooooooo!

cousins...






the girls and i went to play with cousins aislyn and grayson the other day. here are a few snapshots of our playdate... eating broccoli, aislyn putting b to "pretend sleep", and what's a playdate without a few meltdowns??
