Easter 2009

Check out my basket! Last year I could fit in it and this year I'm going hunting!!!

FOUND ONE

There has to be another egg around here somewhere...

Got it! Thanks Mommy! Hey who took a picture of my booty?

Sunday Easter Dress

This poofy stuff sure makes stairs interesting.

It's hard to be this beautiful!!!

We had such a great time hunting for Easter eggs. I got to wear make-up that day because I had spots all over my face. Some kid bit me at daycare and I got hand foot mouth disease.

FUN STUFF!

I was a trooper though and smiled through it all.

Pics From My 1st Birthday!!!

My Gramma Jo did a great job on the cake! Ladybugs made with strawberry's for a body, blueberry's for a head and mini chocolate kisses for the spots! Way to go Gramma Jo!!!

OH SO COOL!

Fashionista!!!

Whoa that is SWEET!

This is what sugar shock looks like. :)

We had Spagettio's today...

AND SO DID OUR HAIR

OMG!!!

Why do I love thee? Let me count the ways...

He makes me laugh!
He makes me cry!

He's a great kisser!

And a cook...that's why

...he's my BFF!

"I wish I may... I wish I might... have the wish I wish tonight"

Only the Lord knows what is in store for us but up to now....if I had my say... he's definently THE ONE!!!

Cool and the Gang

Presli 18 months & Audrey 9 months
Laney 3yrs old and Audrey 3 months old

Danielle 8yrs old, Dylan 5yrs old and Audrey 1 month old

Naomi 8yrs old and Audrey 13 months old

It is so cute to watch Audrey interact with her closest pals. It is amazing how her eyes light up when she plays with other kids. Presli is teaching Audrey everything she knows about smiling for the camera. Boy can that girl cheese! Laney sings on cue and captivates Audrey's attention with her rendition of "Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone...". This was a rare still moment for Laney! We love her and Gavin to peices! Danielle is a great "big sister" and is always aware of AJ's whereabouts. Dillon plays with her every chance he gets. Well, when he's not runnin around with Titus. That Titus is a whole other story. We'll get to him shortly. First we have to share a bit about our Nomi. She is very special to us. We don't get to see her often but when we do it's a barrel of laughs.

Random Moments From AJ's Last 16 Months...

WOW! We're bloggin now...

We thought this would be the easiest way to share a piece of our life with all of you! So many of our family and friends ask me to email pics of Audrey. I am terrible about that! She's now 16 months old and full of energy!!! Oh My Goodness! I love taking pictures of her and I have a bazillion to share but they never seem to make it to the email. I am sorry. We'll dash through her last 16 months and blog every major event from here on out! That may mean you get an update everyday as there is always something new and exciting with her.

She is our MIRACLE child! Josh and I tried for 5 years to start a family but God kept saying ...not yet. His timing is always perfect! We found out that we were pregnant on our 9 year Anniversary. We were overjoyed and have made Jeremiah 29:11-13 our family motto. Even when we don't understand why things are not going our way we lean on this scripture for confirmation of the bigger picture. GOD delivers everytime! We had Audrey March 20, 2008 and our life has never been the same. She is an absolute joy!
