Family Pictures 2013

I wasn't sure how our family pictures would turn out since the day didn't go real well. We went up to the peach orchard and it was really windy. It was not only really windy, but Reese was not in a good mood. She was throwing a tantrum from the very beginning. I even brought marshmallows, but they didn't seem to help at all. Luckily, Reese is the most ticklish and photogenic two year old I know. I was excited when I saw that the pictures turned out so well.  I love my beautiful family and our beautiful pictures. 

May and 2 month check up

    I am trying to catch up on my blog and it is a little difficult with two little ones. They change everyday and it seems like there is even more to update. On May 14, 2013, Nora turned 2 months old and it was also my birthday. A lot of people hate birthdays because it means that they are getting older, but I love getting older because every couple of years I have been able to celebrate my birthday with another beautiful child. Both Reese and Nora were born in March and so a brand new baby for my birthday is more than I could ever ask for. I love to snuggle with my little family on our bed and watch " The Robisons" ( one of our favorites) or just watch Reese and Nora play together. They were truly meant to be sisters. They may not look alike, but I am constantly amazed at how connected they are. I remember when we adopted Reese, I felt it such a blessing that I was not only a mother, but I was meant to be Reese's mother. I have felt that same way about Nora and now I am seeing this same thing with the girls. Reese has specific qualities that make her the perfect big sister for Nora and vice versa. They are so cute together!  Nora is growing so quickly and just keeps getting cuter and cuter. Her expressions are the best and she is just a happy baby. She loves being held, but likes to play on the ground by herself. She eats well and sleeps well and is just a 

little piece of heaven in our home. Here were her 2 month check up stats.....
