Our boy

Elijah might just want to disown me as a mother when he is older and realizes that I made him wear all kinds of ridiculous hats/outfits..but for now, I will continue to do so because he is just too cute not to! Here are a few pics from a couple […]

Two months!

..I know, I can’t believe it either. How is our little man already 2 months?! Well, he is, and he is just a little sweetheart. When we started this blog, we did monthly updates about Laina until she turned two, and now it’s E’s turn! At two months, we are […]

The Princess and the Frog

I know I’m way way behind in posting entries, but I had to quickly jot this down because it is just too funny..Laina has recently watched a bit more television that we’d like to admit since her parents are sleep deprived and on survival mode many days ;). We let […]

Friends

The neighborhood crew got together two weekends ago for a potluck dinner, and Sam and I talked about how grateful we are to have these wonderful families in our lives. We’ve basically been raising our kids together since they were just a few months old, and the bond that is […]

Antcipation

“For a long time there were only your footprints & laughter in our dreams & even from such small things, we knew we could not wait to love you forever.” I came across this quote soon after Laina was born, and I glanced at it the other day (as it’s […]
