Ivy~ 20 months old

2010-10-13T19:26:00.000-07:00

Ivy is growing up so fast. I almost teared up a few days ago. I was waking Ivy up and Lena was sitting next to me. Ivy peeked her eyes open and then stretched. Lena said "mommy, give her just another minute, she is growing". Aww! That is something I had told Lena when Ivy was only a few days old and I cannot believe she remembered. Newborns stretch a lot and Lena asked what she was doing. I told her she was stretching so she can grow big like her. I guess she thinks that every time Ivy stretches she is growing :)

I took her out tonight for some pictures and tried to find some fall color. This was tbe best I could find. I wish we had those beautiful firey red, orange, and yellow leaves like they do up north!

this one is my fav :)

her new thing is yelling lol

the "am I in trouble" look :)

silly girl

Five years ago my dad left this world. I miss him every single day. I know he is up in heaven watching my babies grow up, I just wish he could hug them every once in a while.

Just a few pictures that I like of my dad :)

mountain man! He loved to go camping, hiking, canoeing and all of that outdoorsy stuff

love the 70s mustache lol

my birthday :)

my wedding

his first grandson Kai :)

He only met Lena a few times. He passed away when she was barely 6 weeks old. I love this picture. He was so proud of her.

I love you dad.

Lena wants to be a photographer!

She was playing with my little camera a few weeks ago. This is what she got lol

New pictures!

I am a little behind on my blogging again. Darn Facebook! I will try to remember to post here also.

Here is miss Lena's 5th birthday portraits. She is growing up so fast. She swears that she is going to stay a little girl forever and refuses to grow up. She also says she is never getting married or having babies lol.

and this was after her first trip to Sweet and Sassy :) She LOVED it there!!

Ivy is 18 months old now. She is growing up to fast just like her sister. I complain daily about having to change diapers and wash diapers (we use cloth diapers) but to be completely honest I really think I will miss it. Ivy is our last baby and I am starting to feel pretty sad that I will never have another baby.

I thought we should have some fun out in the rain. I showed these to Matt after he came home from work. He says "what?!? you let her play in the street!". Ya Matt, I just let her run around and play all day in the street lol. I was right there with her and there were no cars around. Plus we were out there for all of 5 minutes :)

This was our last trip to the pool for 2010. Another summer is gone, but I love these images. Some of these were taken my me and some by my friend Susie :) Thanks Susie!

she really did not like going under water lol

Kai of course loves going under!

it has been a while!!

So since I found facebook I have been neglecting my blog. My last post Ivy was only 1 year old, now she is 17 months old!!

I went through a funk where I stopped taking pictures of my wonderful kids. Why? Well because I was working so much and when I was around my own kids I just wanted to play with them. I started feeling guilty that I would have no pictures from the summer so I grabbed the camera and told Matt to get in the car. We drove around for a while so I could find the perfect field. It did not take long! I found this sunflower field behind a store in north Irving. Matt complained at first because he did not want to stop on the side of a road or hike through high grass. We got lucky and found the perfect spot. It is right next to the back of a parking lot, so there was parking spaces PLUS it was only a few feet off of the concrete. woohoo! score!

Ivy is Turning ONE!

I cannot believe this year has gone by so fast. Ivy is getting so big and independent lately. She just started to walk too. Well she can walk about 4-5 feet. She likes to feed herself and she does not like the child gate :)

I did some pictures for her birthday invitations. She loved her cake!!

car crash

2009-11-17T08:18:00.000-08:00

Last night my mom was driving the kids and had an accident. Kai is fine but Lena hit the tv that was on the headrest. She has a scrape and a bruise. It could have been so much worse :( Here is what the van looks like now.

Look who is 7 months old!!

2009-09-18T19:18:00.000-07:00

Matt, Ivy, & Lena

Ivy is so close to crawling and she is only 6 months old! I am freaking out. I need to get a child gate soon!

2009-08-18T12:22:00.000-07:00

Why is it that I can get great shots for clients of their kids, but when I try to get a shot of my three together it is a disaster? lol

2009-08-12T13:55:00.000-07:00

I have been neglecting my blog lately. Facebook is so addictive!

So here is a little catch up on some serious cuteness!

2009-07-04T21:45:00.001-07:00

I am loving my underwater camera! I am also loving that my 6 year old can FINALLY go underwater lol

and after swimming. Ivy loves to watch brother play the Wii

Lena got her tooth pulled!

2009-07-01T11:36:00.000-07:00

and she did great! She is a little whiney now and insists of keeping the gauze in her mouth. I ended up having to duck out of the room while they pulled it. I am a little freaky about teeth. I cringe when I even think about it!

Getting started

getting ready to pull it!

then mommy had to leave the room lol

all done and going to the prize wall. She picked a lovely set of pink star antenna ears and a boomarang lol

leaving!

My baby girl is growing up so fast. It makes me so sad that she is my last baby. I guess I will be headed into a new stage of life with older kids, but I will miss their baby years so much.

Ivy at birth~

Kai graduated Kindergarten today. I admit, I cried a little. He looked so grown up! He got a hair cut yesterday too :) He is so handsome!
The graduation was a little annoying. We got there early and found a seat next to the middle isle about half way down. As soon as it started about 6 parents walked right up to the front of the isle blocking everyone elses view. At first I thought they would just snap a quick picture of their kid and go sit back down. Nope, these parents just stood there! After about 5 minutes I had to say something. I wasnt the only one annoyed because at the exact same time I started to say something another parent stood up to say something. All of them sat down except one. She ignored everyone and continued to stand directly in my view of Kai. I was so annoyed! Some people have no manners. I with the principal or someone would have asked them to sit.

Before school :)

walking across to get his diploma

looks like he is so proud of his diploma. Truth is, there was a sucker attached to the diploma lol

with his wonderful teacher Ms Wise

goofy boys! Sadly, this was Matt's idea

2009-06-01T18:21:00.000-07:00

We got a new trampoline over the weekend! It is Kai's new favorite thing. He spent the whole weekend on it. We put the water hose on it and he loved it! We tried to attach a sprinkler to the side but it did not work out. He likes to be able to spray people anyways lol.

Matt is just a big kid too :)

Ivy learned how to roll over!

2009-05-29T22:24:00.000-07:00

I just love my girls! Lena has been getting jealous lately when I take pictures of Ivy so she asked me today to take some of her.

2009-05-14T20:39:00.000-07:00

Ivy is three months old! It is going by so fast. Ivy and Lena look so much alike now :)

Bluebonnets! My friend and I took our kids out for some bluebonnet fun this evening. It was hard getting around this big hill, but totally worth it. I only fell twice, luckily I wasnt holding Ivy! Here is a little advice though, never wear flip flops to a steep hill of flowers!!!

Ivy & Mommy

We had my friend and photographer Susie take a picture of us today :)
I cannot believe she smiled and I really cant believe Susie caught it! She has just started smiling this week too and it is not all the time yet.

and one of my beautiful little Ivy

My beautiful girls

2009-03-27T21:40:00.000-07:00

I convinced Lena to let me take a few pictures of her with Ivy. She was reluctant and said I could take 2 only lol. I snapped several before she said it was enough.

Lucky Layla Farm

We went on a tour of a small dairy farm in Plano this week. It was fun! The kids got to see where milk comes from. They had the most fun with the calves. These little guys were really thin :( It made me sad, but they looked like they were well taken care of.

even Ivy enjoyed herself lol
