Merry Christmas

Sooooo, sometimes it's time to take family pictures and your kids just ARE NOT in the mood. Ever have one of those? I will make this disclaimer: Drayven had the stomach flu and had thrown up about 10 minutes before these pictures and Bella had been sick with cold symptoms for about a week. Sunny, I'm SO wishing we'd been able to do family photos with you! Ours did NOT turn out pretty, I'll include one just for proof. :)

My first Halloween

So I'm carrying Bella down a street filled with little people in costumes, making sure Drayven tells everyone thank you, thinking how cute she is in her little pink Cheetah outfit, when I realize, this is MY first trick-or-treat experience! For religious reasons, my family never celebrated Halloween. Jeremy asked me last night, as he has before, do you feel deprived? The answer is going to have to be no. What I don't know, or have never experienced, I can't miss, right? Is Halloween wrong? Hmmmm, my official opinion is, everything is what YOU make out of it. If you celebrate and worship the Devil at this time of year, yes. If you dress your children in cute little costumes and parade them around to your neighbors and friends, no. For now, I am enjoying the innocence of childhood and just letting the kids have fun.

Happy Bellaween!

See my two little toofers? I think I can eat steak now that I have them. I try putting everything I see in my mouth, but my Mom keeps taking stuff away from me.Check out my long lashes! I have my Daddy's pretty eyes. Every time he walks in the room I just start smiling because he always tickles me, or makes funny noises for me. I think he's hilarious.

This is mommy's piano. As soon as we get a house Mommy and I will get to play it more. I can't wait!

Wow, life's going too fast! Baby, hubby, house, dishes, work, photography....sometimes sleep. :)Here's a few photos of what we've been up to:

These kids are sooo cute! Ornery too, as I'm sure you'll figure out on your own. Thanks, Annie for letting me get some of my creative juices out of my system!
