Trying to catch up here!

I need to back track here and say "Happy New Year!" We brought in the new year with our friends at Mike and Cristina Smith's home. All the kids had a great time playing together and we had a lot of fun catching up with our good friends. Cristina had gone all out with some awesome food, fun hats, and good times... Here are a few pictures of the girls.


This is Haylee with Madelyn. Madelyn is a few months older than Haylee, but they've always looked the same size :) Don't they look so cute?!

All the kiddos. Haylee, Mady, Gracie, Rylee, and Natalee

Happy? New Year...lol too funny!!

Rylee made it til midnight and enjoyed the countdown with us. We all got our New Year kisses and toasted to a new year... no worries, she didn't have any champagne

Haylee passed out early :)

Ok, next we enjoyed some time at Gatorland with Mimi and Poppop, and Cousin Mason and aunt Jojo and Uncle Mike. Rylee loved all the animals and had a total blast. We even enjoyed a little train ride where I snapped a few pictures of Haylee, She was soo happy and smiling!


This one is a fav of mine, as you can probably tell



My nephew Mason, he is way too cute!

Then a friend of mine, Sarah, got a new camera, a new lens, and new backdrop seamless paper.... so of course we had to get together and try it all out. Here is a picture of Rylee from the fun we had!


Also went out with my friend Kristin to a favorite photo spot here in town, just a few of the girls that I got... its nearly impossible for me to get any pictures of the girls together, let alone apart too without an assistant or partner with me. Its impossible to keep both eyes on both kids and hold a camera at the same time.... needless to say, its been hard to keep up on taking pictures! :)




I also attempted a V-day shoot, although the girls weren't too cooperative, I got two favorites from the attempt, and hope to try again before Vday gets here!




and this is probably the funniest outtake picture I have to date... Rylee is such a hoot! I love her to death!! Hope this brings a smile to your face!


and lastly, two snapshots from bath time... It's the girls favorite night time event, and mommy and daddy help eachother together to get both the girls ready for bed and baths. I'd love to try to do a more formal bathtime, bubble bath picture session, that would be soo fun!




And for the latest news, we've moved! We are back with Grandma and Grandpa for a little bit. Rylee has been doing pretty well with her potty training, no where near fully trained. Haylee is super close to rolling over, any day now. She is very strong and has great balance, I hope to see her sitting up soon as well. She is very smiley and super happy. She still spits up quite a bit and that concerns me... the Dr brushes it off and says its normal, I digress... Rylee is speaking more and more words everyday! She doesn't like to sleep in anymore, thats a drag.... at 6:50 in the morning on weekends, Rylee says "All done bed" haha
Anyhow, I will update more, lots to tell and share about the girls!!!
