First Ever Pigtails!
First piggies need to be documented, right? I've been waiting for this day! I mean, it only took us 2 years, 11 months, and 10 days. But who's counting? I've been so patiently waiting to style her pretty hair! She was so proud of her pigtails and kept asking to look at herself in the mirror. They lasted about five minutes before she pulled ...

When we had just one child we thought it was hard to eat out....but add two more in to the mix and it's pretty much a circus. We are outnumbered. And they know it. So today I thought I'd ...

Wedding Weekend
In March, the kids were in Jon's sister's wedding and were just about the cutest little flower girls and ring bearer I've ever seen. Am I right?
