About Us

My photo
We are a family of 5 that moved from California to Arizona about 8 years ago. We love it here! We love to watch movies, enjoy the great outdoors when it's not blazing hot, play sports, hike, ride bikes and spend time together! Life is awesome and we wish the same to all of you!

Damara

Our little Demi is growing up so fast (and we are not kidding). We went to the Dr. yesterday for her 2 month check-up. She is now a healthy 15 pounds (she is almost to Aisy's weight of 20 pounds) and 23 3/4 inches long. She has almost grown out of her 3-6 month clothes. She is doing great! She is smiling like crazy, is holding her head up superbly and is moving her arms and legs like crazy! Damara is so calm and is sleeping through the night (well most nights anyway). Here are a few updated pictures of our sweet cheeks!

Sunshine & Smiles

Our sunshine girl, Demi, has been smiling since she hit the 3 week mark. We were having a terrible time trying to catch the moment. Auntie captured it quite nicely! Thanks again Audra, we love it!





Aislinn's Two Year Pictures

Little Aisy girl just turned 2 a few weeks back. Here are her pictures too! The second session went much better. We had tried a week earlier, but she was so sick. She was running a fever so all of her pictures looked like she was drugged up. These turned out much better!


Such a cherub face, but boy can the mouth part scream!





Damara's One Month Pictures

Damara is 2 months now, but here are her 1 month pictures. Things got a bit crazy and Jenna fell down on the job when it came to updating the blog last month. Sorry everyone! Here is our little munchkin! Thanks Auntie Audra for another awesome session! More updated pictures coming soon!



This one is our favorite, love that tongue!

Happy Birthday Aisy!

Our Aisy girl turned 2! We celebrated with family (Auntie Sashy and Papa Phil) were out visiting. Jenna made Aislinn a butterfly cake to go with our fairy girl's Tinkerbell themed party. A great time was had by all!

Our birthday girl sporting her pony tails. (It is only recently that she is allowing her hair to get done. They last for about 15 minutes though)


Aislinn opening her new Bell Bell sheets and comforter. We are making the transition to a big girl bed and are sure these will help!

Not sure who enjoyed the Tinkerbell dress more?


Aunt Sashy (the biggest kid of all) snuggling in with the kids and the new comforter.


Make a wish!

Happy Birthday Baby girl!


Baby Bean's Announcement Photos

We hope you have all received Damara's announcement by now! If not, it should be there any day. Auntie Audra was on the job again to help us get the pictures. It was pretty comical behind the scenes. Damara started to get scrunchy and fussy, so Mommy had to feed her in the tree so she would fall back asleep. There was a picture of that, but we will spare you all the details! For those of you that were asking, Yep, Demi was hanging in the tree. We started to sing the lullaby "Rock-a-bye baby" when she got squirmy and then got to the last line of the song and promptly stopped realizing that it ends badly! With a little photo enhancing here and there we got a great finished product and love it! Thanks again Auntie, this is one of our favorites to date!







Monkey See, Monkey Do

Jenna went to the Dr. yesterday to get a check up. When her turn came up, Aislinn refused to stay in the waiting room with Bryan and threw a royal tantrum. So in she went with Jenna. When the time came time for Jenna to strip down, Aislinn decided it was a good idea to do the same. She took off her shirt like Mommy. Needless to say we were all cracking up and the Dr. was such a good sport that she checked Aisy's belly too!

Mommy and Aisy happy to report a clean bill of health!
