HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY EVAN

Today daddy's little helper turns 2!! Where did the time go?? Happy Birthday Evan....mommy and daddy love you.

Madison Ringwald

Congratulations Matt & Karen on little Madison. She's a cutie. I added yet another link to Matt and Karen's website to follow Madison's progress. She was born with a heart murmur that they have to operate to correct. Please visit the site and keep the family in your prayers.

Another Link

So I added another link. Check out Cyle & Bri Wilkinson's website to see their adorable little guy. He was born with club foot and he's going through procedures to correct it. I check it often, and find it's easier to link to it from here. He's adorable guys! Congratulations!!

Mindy Lauf Golf Outing

For those of you involved....and even those who aren't...you can check out the blog that Trina has put together for the golf outing coming up this Saturday. It's on the side under Mindy Lauf Golf Outing. Trina did a great job describing the purpose of the outing and giving everyone some insite into Mindy's life.

Sounds like the outing is already a big success....and hopefully it will be in years to come as well. And the individuals benefiting from this sound genuinely thankful.

Good Luck to everyone on the course....just watch out for my balls!! I have no control over them! I'm sure Trina will get some good pictures and she'll post them after the outing for everyone to view.

Corbin & Evan

So Shana and I took Corbin and Evan to the school on sunday to get some pictures on the playground! It was lots of fun.....but extremely hot! Hence some red faces in these. Corbin had lots of fun and his pictures turned out really good....Evan wasn't quite sure, but he had lots of fun anyway.

Adorable

Breakfast of champs!! Covered in Oreo's he's trying to attack the camera.

Check out our little doll baby! :) She's sitting up like she's been doing it all along, and she's basically crawling now. She hasn't quite figured out it would be easier on her hands....so she's pulling herself around. But she gets where she wants to go....and she gets there fast.

Swim Fun

We've been enjoying the pond lately. It's soo nice when it's hot outside. Evan has been putting his swimming skills from class to use....kicking and blowing bubbles!

Happy 6 Months Ella

Well it snuck up on us....Ella is turning 6 months old already! Of course I put her through the usual picture session...by the end she was ready to be done. She's now got her second tooth, so trying to keep her fingers out of her mouth was fun too. Enjoy the pictures.

Misc. Pictures

Too many pictures not enough time/space!!! Kids really do grow too fast. Ella just got her first tooth yesterday and Evan's getting really good about using the potty. Of course mom and dad are the same...just a little older and grumpier!!

Fireworks!!

Too much fun!! We went to Joe's aunt and uncle's this weekend and watched Spencerville's fireworks display. At first Evan wasn't too sure about all the noise....but he eventually warmed up to them and was ohhhing and ahhhing. Ella even enjoyed them so much that she yelled when they were over.

We're Still Here!!

Oh what fun we've been having!! Evan is such a great big brother....I know I say that all the time, but I just can't get over how great he is with Ella. He's been taking swim lessons and loving them. I think he'll be a natural like mommy and daddy. We busted out the bubbles last week and Brutus was having as much fun as Evan!! It was too funny.

Is anybody in there??

Please Evan, just one bite? :)
He's quite the acrobat!!

Progressive Children!! :)

Well it's been a very eventful last few days....weeks....Ella's now rolling over and spinning in circles when she's on her belly!! How exciting. And Evan has began telling us when he's got to go potty!! He's always been good about going on the toilet when we sit him there....but he's now telling us when he's got to go!! How wonderful.

GO FISH!!

Is this not the most adorable poker face you've ever seen???

Hadley 3 Months

Here a few pictures of miss Hadley that I did this weekend for Mark and Jac....she said she was posting some on her blog...but I have yet to see them. Hopefully she'll have more for everyone soon. I hope you guys like these!

Test Subject

Does this lens make my head look big?? :) I sure am enjoying playing with my new lens....just need to refine it a bit and then I'll be able to put it to good use. But for now here's a funny picture.

Holden James Price

Here's the little guy!! Well little is relative....he was 9lbs 20z 21in. Megan had him last night right before midnight, so his birthday is May 19th. Landon was pretty excited and I'm sure Ashlyn will be a big help once mommy comes home with Holden.

Congrats Guys!! He's adorable.

Macayla 3 Months

I had the pleasure of doing Macayla's 3 month pictures this past weekend....and I hope that Jess and Doug like these. I've posted a few of my favorites...you'll have to check their blog for more once they decide which ones to post. She's such an adorable little girl and she was very easy to work with!! Even though mom thought she would be cranky. :)

Check out those bright eyes!


I just loved this chair! I really wanted Doug to move it...but he wasn't really into re-decorating their place. Maybe next time.

Sweet Child of God

This past weekend we had Ella Baptised at St. John's....everything went really well and she was baptised with her cousin Macayla. We could have asked for better weather....but we can't get everything we want!! Check out Jess and Doug's website for more pictures of the day.

And for Mother's Day my wonderful husband let me buy a new lens for my camera!! Stay tuned for some exciting pictures.... :) Thanks Honey!! I Love You

Outside Fun

Well it's been a busy few last weeks....but we've finally got our grass planted!! Yeah.....we owe a big thanks to John and Kay for helping outside and with the kids.....Thank You so much! Here are a few fun pictures we took outside last night.

And a little note to Cooper....we need you to come out and give Brutus some swimming lessons! :) Joe threw him off the dock and he wasn't quite sure.....he made it back to shore but it wasn't pretty. Hopefully he'll get the hang of it and swim with ease by the end of the summer.

Just try to make me go inside..... :)

Strutting his stuff like daddy
