WHO said!?

Who said that she could turn ONE!???
Here is my attempt at some ONE year pictures for Jada! 
I admire you photographers for doing this. 
I end up so frustrated, stressed and sweaty! 
;)

OH Jades... I felt the same way! :) Notice the goldfish in her mouth...my bribery! :) 
Wish I knew more what I was doing! :) 
Oh well.. made for some great memories anyway! 

Easter and more!!

There really isn't any rhyme or reason to this post... just trying to get pics on! :) 
Enjoy!

 Love this picture of them watching a movie together! Especially love Jada's little face in the 1st one! :)

 Braylie was outside working with Brandon and they came in for lunch. Brandon went upstairs for just a second and Braylie fell right asleep. This is a first! :) Must have worked her a little too hard! LOL! 
Image
 Jada and her dang blankets. She loves to have them right up on her face and sticks them in her mouth. Give her a blanket and everything will be just fine! :)  She will be in the middle of playing and see her blanket and go dive right into it and snuggle!

 Brays eating her peanut butter in the corner! :) 

Easter egg Hunt  at the church. 
She was so fast I couldn't get pictures of her!

Braylie loved peeling the eggs and then would take about two bites and then she was done. 
All kinds of concentration for 2 bites! :) 

Easter morning.
They loved the mini M&M's the most!

 ADORABLE girls in their easter dresses!

 our own easter egg hunt after church. 
I could have hid them empty. 
Braylie was more concerned with how many she got and tried taking them out of Jada's basket! LOL! 
She never even tried to open them. 
Jada did great and loved throwing the eggs into the basket.

 WE love our new swingset... who needs a stinkin' INFANT swing!?? :) 

ImageImage

 Jada started pushing a stool around to get around! :) Braylie decided to copy her. Now they chase each other around with the stools and just giggle! I love that it keeps them entertained and that they are starting to play with each other.

 Watching the random stray cat out the back window. That is how I prefer animals too! haha!

I decided I really need to keep this up to date! 
I stink at taking pictures of my cute girls and our everyday happenings, so hopefullly this will help me. I don't even know if anyone reads this anymore, but I love being able to look back at the blog and I know I will be sad I missed so long, so here I am starting again. 
I have debated "CATCHING UP" but I think that is what has pushed me away for so long and seems way to overwhelming, so this is where I am starting. ;) Maybe later I will find the motivation to do some catching up, but not for now we'll start with March! :)
excuse the messy post untill I get used to this new blogger! 
It really has been way too long! 
The beginning of  March I had a gum graft done. SERIOUSLY NOT RECOMMENDED! If the dentist tells you you need one... RUN AWAY! They told me it wasn't bad, but I was in more pain for a week than I was when I had C-sections! :)   Jada was having some teething issues of her own. We were still workin' on getting her 1st tooth! 

Image
I also turned the big 30!! Brandon put together a cute little surprise party for friends and family. He did a great job. Thanks to everyone who helped. How super lame that we don't have any pics! BOO! What were we thinking!!??  I wasn't really excited about being 30. IT just sounds so much older than 29! I have accepted it now and it is great!  

Jada turned 1!! Where in the world does the time go!? Cant believe it was a year ago that we added her to our family.  She is so much fun and we love her to pieces! She is TINY and is not even on the charts! :) She is quite mellow and calm, loves to be snuggled, loves her MOM and being held (which makes it so hard to get anything DONE). I just can't seem to get enough of her tiny little self! :)

 Braylie was outside playing and fell over the top of the ball and

Braylie, of course caused all kinds of trouble. 
When we thought she was sleeping, she was doing this. 
Yep.. you guessed it.... BABY POWDER!! 
Not really my idea of Fun to clean it up late at night! 
Little stink!
