Ellie and Raquel

Here are two pictures of Ellie and Raquel. I can't believe how fast time has gone and how big our little babies are! I just love chunkie babies! I hope they always remain friends! We are going to Raquel's birthday party tomorrow! Ellie is so excited! They are both 7yrs old now!

Happy St. Patricks Day

Ellie's masterpiece from school

My Ellie Bellie

A spur of the moment photo shoot...lol
Thank goodness she just goes with the flow and lets me be creative! She is getting so big and has so much personality! She is doing great in school and we are so proud of her!

Jordan playing

Jordan is 9 months old now. He loves going outside and playing on his push car. Ellie and gabe argue over who can push him. Jordan is just laid back and doesn't care as long as he is being pushed. He holds on the steering wheel and the key! It is so stinking cute! He is such a good baby!

Our little cupid

Here are some pictures of Jordan at 8 months old. He has 6 teeth now. He sits up pretty well. A friend of mine let me use her wings and bow and arrow. It was the perfect prop for Valentine's Day! We love him so much and he has filled our home with love and laughter...again! :)

fingerprints...

This is from a tree trunk nearby...I looked down and thought is was really cool!

Our Date Night

Well this month (march 24th) is our 10 year anniversary. We wanted to do something special to celebrate. My friend Lindy came over to watch the kids for us. We went to see George Lopez at the IP Casino and Resort. We wanted to stay the night but it was over priced so we decided to come home after. Our friend Kurt and Marie went with us. We ate at a really nice restaurant before the show and laughed the entire night. I had such a blast!

Danny also sent me flowers earlier in the week. He totally surprised me! He called me and asked me to check the front door for a package and when I opened the door, there were flowers in a box that were delivered. I cried! He wrote a really nice note in it as well. Love is such a beautiful thing!

Jordan and Poppa

Here are some awesome shots I got of Poppa (my dad) and Jordan. Poppa pulled up in the drive way to find Jordan sitting in the grass and me taking pictures of Jordan. My dad walked up and sat in the grass and started talking to him. Jordan smiled so big and then his face turned really serious like he was listening very closely to every word. It was so sweet and awesome. I am so glad I had my camera! It is the greatest gift my wonderful husband could have ever got for me.

Jordan (7 months)

My little guy! He is growing so fast. It is so awesome to see him grow, learn and change but it is also so very sad. My little man is growing up. He says Momma alot and he has 2 bottom teeth and is getting 4 up top all at once right now. He is 20 lbs and in size 9-12 month old outfits. He is so sweet and is so good. He sits up now but is not crawling yet. There is plenty time for that. :)

Danny's christmas party (work)

Here are a couple shots of us at Danny's Christmas party. Poppa came to watch the kids so that I could go. :) The kids had a blast and so did we.
We got home around 11:30pm to find a bird pecking on the window above our front door, almost like it was trying to get dad's attention. It flew away after Danny and I walked in the door. It was so strange. We also stopped on our way home and got some hot mocha from Starbucks. Yummy!
The picture of Ellie and Gabe in the box is...(them pretending to drive their own car). You got to love their imaginations! It is always the simple things they love the most..like a cardboard box! I love it!

Lunch with Whitney!

Whitney was in town for the holidays and we managed to get our schedules together so we could visit. We met at Mc Calisters Deli in Covington. Dad came also with Mimi. We had a blast and the kids really enjoyed one another. It was so nice seeing Whitney. I really wish she lived closer so the kids could play. Ellie and Bailee are close in age and Emil and Gabe are one year apart.

Christmas morning 2010

Here is a picture of the kids on Christmas morning. Keep in mind that it was 3 am when Ellie and Gabe woke us up to tell us that Santa came. They were totally excited. Ellie got an mp3 player that hooks up to a speaker on her bike and she loves it. She listens to it everyday! Gabe loves his new bike and Victoria got a remote control car similar to the one Gabe got for his birthday. They love playing with that together.
