Saying good-bye to the terrible twos and hello to my big girl!

Today is the last time I can say that my little Rory is TWO. :( Tomorrow she will be 3 years old! It is so hard to believe that I have been a mom for 3 years. This little girl has brought so much joy to my life.

Here is a little tribute to my baby girl!

Glamour Baby | Highland, California | Childrens Photographer

Yes she DOES think she is a Diva

Album - Gorgeous Albums! | redlands, ca | Wedding Photographer

I am ecstatic to show off a gorgeous album! I have been waiting to post these pictures until my bride received her album. I surprised her with it today :) She was so excited, she said we were lucky we were in doors or she would have screamed lol!!! I'm glad you like it girl!!!

Ok WHO taught him this????

This was a total accidental picture but when I saw it I just knew I had to post it! Isn't it funny when kids unintentionally flip you off??? Or as my friend said maybe it wasn't so unintentional! lol

Crazy Cool

I went to take a picture of Logan today. This is what I got!!! Check out the rainbow IN my house! How cool is that!

He's got Eyes of the Bluest Skies

I'm not sure why but when I think of Logan I think of this song



I think maybe it has to do with the lyrics:
Got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain

My beautiful baby

I remember the first time I heard Creed's song "With Arms Wide Open" I thought WOW that is a beautiful song.



Now that I have two beautiful little babies this song touches me so much more even now!

My sweet little angel girl has been sick :( She's been running a 104.8 temp and I love the fact that I was able to get a nice picture of her today!

Lily Bear

So why is it that my dog gives me better eye contact than my kids???


lol take 2 (I think this one is funny because she blends in to the floor. So you can see the problem with getting up in the middle of the night and tripping over her lol

My Bum Genius Baby Boy

Yesterday my hubby asked me what I wanted to do. We considered many things but decided to start by going out to breakfast :) After breakfast I asked if we could stop off at this store Kissui I had found online. I have been wanting to buy a Mobywrap for my new lil bean as well as start cloth diapering. I knew that the store was on "citrus" so we drove up and down looking for it, I decided to give them a call. HAHAHA NO it is ON Orange/Cajon (same thing. Anyways, so we call and Laura the store owner tells us where to find her. So we park a block away (no parking on the street) and meander on down there. Ok I seriously think this store is adorable! Laura was so nice, and even though I hadn't "planned" on buying anything yesterday I went ahead and bought a bunch of cloth diapers and my mobywrap :) I put the diapers on Logan to try them out today! OMG he looked SOOOO adorable!!!

Disney Tram

Rory asks to go to Disneyland EVERYDAY. Why??? because she loves the tram! lol IT is so funny how much she loves the tram it is her favorite thing, she could care less about any other "ride" she just loves the tram. (I only had my cellphone with me) so excuse the poor quality ;)

Yesterday

Dang now I have the song stuck in my head MUAHAHAHA

anyways! I started another blog for my 365 project. Although my kids will probably be in there quite a bit I am not focusing on JUST my kids, my goal is just to take pics everyday :) for those of you who want to add it to your blog stalker list here ya go Project 365

My Goal

Is to try to blog every week :) I won't go as far to say I will blog every day but I really hope that I can blog EVERY week :) I want to try to start another 365 project but we shall see how that goes, especially since I am prego and will have to take a day or so to give birth/be hospitalized hahaha.
