catching up before the wkend.

aaackkk!! i am gonna be busy this wkend with shoots and the party so here goes.

yesterday aidan had her "show" for VBS. can you find her? lol


after nap - she had, um, made a mess with her bazillion blankets.




we went downstairs to change diapers and have tummy time for reese.






"hmmm what should i do?"


"oh! hit sawyer!"


today was sawyer's bday obviously ;) and here are pics when she got up. i can honestly say i have no idea whats on her shirt. i mean, i asked her. she said she burped. lol so it was obviously juicy. how gross is that? she's been fine all day so... anyway.

"are you suuure its my bday?"


bye bye.




(and for giggles - here was aidan on HER 2nd bday. for comparison lol)




they had a bath this morning. aidan had fun with empty soap lol




sisterly love. swoon.

happy 2nd birthday, sawyer.

i love you so much.

you are an amazing talker. you have a word for everything and i understand 90% of what you say. you are a tormentor ;) nothing gives you more joy than frustrating aidan or making us hop out of our chairs in fear you will do something crazy. you are a love. you love to cuddle, kiss, hug, and just overall be my snuggly little toddler. you are funny. i predict you will be the trouble making class clown ;) doing anything to get us to laugh is your main goal sometimes. you are a great sister. you share everything with aidan (even when she doesn't share with you), you insist people say hello and goodbye to a sleeping reese.

you have walked around all morning saying "HAPPY 'DAAAAY!!!!" lol you love birthdays like me ;)

sawyer's teeth hurt so we gave her a popscicle. annnnd then she put it in her hair.


aidan was in a MOOOOOD and all she wanted to do was sit in stella's cage LOL sawyer proceeded to torture her ;)


this morning we had to wake up early bc aidan has VBS this week :) she was excited!


she has had a bandaid on her head bc she bumped it like 3 days ago haha it seems as if she might be allergic to whatever is on the adhesive.


reese had a cute outfit on today ;)
