Alex's Photo Shoot

Well, I finally got my new lights that Jason got me for Christmas set up (and experimented with my camera settings) so I could take some pictures of our super cutie friends!!! It is Alex's first birthday this week, so this "photo session" was for him, but I also got some adorable pictures of Miss Holly too!!! I was actually really pleased with how they turned out (I hope you like them too Katie!)

Whitney's Baby Shower

We had Whitney's baby shower on Sunday. It was a tea party celebrating baby Mckenna! Whitney got lots of cute clothes, toys, equipment, and books! I can't believe how few pictures I had a chance to take! It was such a busy day! Here is a glimpse at the day:

This was one of the cute room decorations I made using Mckenna's bedding theme.

As part of the tea party theme, the table centerpieces were scones and cookies, and everyone could choose various flavors of loose-leaf teas to try!

The diaper cake. The real cake (while we still ate it) was kind of squished because a cat jumped on the top of the cake box!!!

First REAL Play in the Snow

This was the girls first real playing in the snow; last year I took them out to take pictures, but they couldn't even stand up in their gear at the time!!! Makenzie absolutely loved the snow, while Kendall was kind of unsure what she thought! I always joke that my parents had to force me to play outside in the snow (I hated it!) - and I pretty much had to do that with Kendall to get her dressed - but she was fine once she got outside. The girls helped Daddy build a snowman (which only lasted about 3 hours, because it got so warm out in the afternoon!!!) I had a great time experimenting with my camera with great natural light! Actually, I'd been waiting to post these pictures until I could have time to do some editing, but finally decided just to post anyways.

Bedtime!

Here's a little peek into our bedtime routine! The girls love it when Daddy reads to them!! I will say that the hug captured between Kenzi and Kendall is normal, but typically not on command - but it was tonight!

Mommy's T-shirts

I was folding laundry one day this week...well, actually I'm pretty much folding laundry everyday of the week, but it was one particular day...when Makenzie held up one of my t-shirts and wanted to put it on. And therefore, so did Kendall. So here is Kendall sporting the intellectual look with a shirt from National Mole Day (if you don't know what that is, shame on you for not paying attention in chemistry class...hee, hee...just kidding), while Makenzie is playing the athelete in my Grove City College alumni game soccer shirt. Oh, they are too silly sometimes.
