Flower Girls

I was the last bridesmaid down the aisle. Jake was supposed to keep the girls corralled until I made it to the front and then set them free. Taylor escaped and came running down the aisle after me. Chloe followed her saying "T-t-t-t-t, come back." Chloe looked pretty cute running down the aisle with her basket, then about 2/3's of the way down she realized where she was and she burst into tears, then proceeded to throw herself dramatically onto altar, tears and all. Hey they're only two right? At least they both made it down the aisle. I stole these from the photographers website so they are lo-res. He got some great shots of the girls. The first photo of Chloe makes her look like she totally knows what she's doing! :)

Anna's Wedding

We've had relatives in town, so I haven't had time to get the photos of my camera yet, but here are a few taken by my cousin. I can't take credit for any of these photographs. They were all taken by Devaki. She's a very special cousin because she's also from Vietnam. This is the first time the girls got to meet her. Here's a photo of the 3 of them. Too cute!

We're back!

Most beautiful bride/wedding EVER!!! I'll share photos and more later, but for now here's a sneak peak of the cuteness. (Taken by my super awesome cousin Devaki)

And we're off!

To see these two get married.......

My little sister Anna and her fiance Josh are getting married on Saturday. Chloe and Taylor are their flowergirls. We're prepared for a total disaster, my guess is Taylor makes it down the isle and Chloe stops mid way and bursts into tears. Well I better get packing!

Coby Paints

Coby has been into everything the girls do lately. He used to be okay with just coloring when they painted, but not anymore! I let him paint for the first time this week. He LOVED it. He was using water colors but he decided to turn them into finger paints and he also figured his shirt was more fun to paint then the paper. I couldn't decide which photos were the cutest, so here's a bunch!

Don't worry momma

Just wanted to document this:
Today was rough day (we've had alot of those lately). We're all really sick. I can handle sick kids but when I get sick AND the kids are sick it's really hard.
Today Coby was crying, and I was holding him on the couch trying to settle him down. I didn't feel good and I guess Taylor noticed I was having a rough time. She climbed up on the chair next to me, put her arms around my neck, game me a kiss and said "Don't worry momma, everything's going to be okay." Then she patted my head and looked me in the eyes and said "okay momma?" She can be such a stinker, but she's so empathetic and so darn sweet sometimes.

And here's a few photos she insisted I take of her the other day. She's into smiling now so she can "see" how cute she looks.






*A few other cute things she's been saying are
"I don't want to eat, I don't want to play, I just want to go to Grandma's house"
And when I reply "We can't go there today, it's too far away (it's an hour drive).
She says "Mom, it's just down the street!"

A Baby Story re-run

A friend of mine told me that our episode will be on again on Friday. I know a few people asked me to post when it would air again. I think it's on around 2 depending where you live.

A little sunshine

It rained everyday last week, but we did get one afternoon of sunshine, so it was off to the park!

A Busy Week

We had 3 visitors stay with us last week. My two cousins, Lizzy and Charity, and Jake's mom Susan. I have tons of cute photos coming. Here's one a few from last week.
