Our New Favorite "Poses"

Here is my precious baby girl sucking her thumb! while sleeping. Yes, she loves her thumb - I've now officialy tried FOUR different brands of pacifiers indluding Avent, Soothie, Mam, and Nuk and she will not take any of them. She takes mommy's milk from an Avent bottle just fine but will NOT take a pacifier so I give up. I figure that we'll just approach weaning her from this when the time comes. She soothes herself and is so happy! She's not so much a snuggly girl when it comes to bedtime. I just put her in her crib and she sticks that thumb in and is asleep within five minutes. Sweet dreams, sweetie!


This is one of my favorite pictures ever. Briley loves to hang out on a quilt and hold on to her feet! My mom calls her "Happy Feet" and it fits her perfectly. She's not so much a feet kicking/dancing kind of penguin but her feet sure do make her happy! This picture says it all! Look at that chubby smile!

School days

Here is my Paityn heading off to kindergarten. She is such a grown up girl. She enjoyed her first week and has fallen right into the every day school routines. She picks out her own clothes and dresses herself in the morning. It is sometimes hard for her to wake up but once she is up she is fine. She has been taking two hour naps each evening though. I guess her brain gets a little tired and needs some rest!
