Merry Christmas Eve!

Just some photos from yesterday and today. The girls got dressed up to see Santa and ended up not seeing him, and then we decorated cookies today. New videos on youtube too!

We miss and love all of our friends and family this Christmas- thinking of you all!
Love,
Dev

iPhone Downloads

It's been awhile since I synced my phone to the computer, and so I was finally able to download some pictures I've taken over the past month. Here is the mish-mash of moments I have captured!

Nap Skipping Abbey, sound asleep on the couch while watching Beauty and the Beast at 4pm:



A picture of the girls side-by-side. I think you get a better feel for how big (and beautiful!) Lilly is at almost 4.5 months, when this photo was taken.


Just a picture of Lilly eyeing her toys on the playmat:


I took these photos on a nice Sunday afternoon out with my girls. I took them to the playground at our subdivision, and after about 30 minutes of playing, took Abbey across the street to pick out an ice cream. She picked out a push pop, and a new love was born:

I thought I only had Lilly in the frame which is why I'm not smiling :)


Abbey loves to play in my closet. She was particularly proud of this top and heels combo she picked out, immediately declaring "Abbey Princess":


Peter and I recently enjoyed a date night out to see the Indigo Girls in Atlanta. I couldn't resist taking one picture to remember the occasion, hopefully next time I will actually get a picture of us together :)


Finally, I braved "Sweet & Sassy" again to get Abbey's hair cut. Last time we barely got her to sit for a bang trim. This time, she skipped her nap but it seemed to work to our advantage: she barely moved the entire time, and rested her head on the chair. She even let the stylist give her a mini blow-out and spray glitter in her hair. She loved it, and I hope our trips to the salon continue to be so event-free.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving family and friends! Wish we could've spent it with all of you, we sure thought about everyone all day. Love and Miss you all!

This turkey was Pete's best ever.

Lilly's One Year Anniversary Photos

t
November 1st, 2009 was the day I took a pregnancy test "just in case" since we were planning to have friends over for dinner, which would mean wine with dinner as well. I figured I should go ahead and take a test in the morning so I would know for sure...and it came up positive! So, I took these photos today to celebrate our one year anniversary with Lilly in our lives! One thing you might notice is I finally took care of her hair by giving her a haircut...those three patches of hair were driving me nuts and I think she looks much better with her little peach fuzz :). Lilly was laughing the entire photo shoot, so that's why she looks so happy!

Happy Halloween!

We celebrated my birthday one last time on Halloween. Peter made an awesome "dinner" at lunchtime that included tenderloin, a homemade mint-feta bread, spinach salad and an herb souffle, and German Chocolate birthday cake. Everything was delicious!








We went out trick or treating at 5:45, early since Abbey didn't nap. She did great for all the walking that we had to do just to take her to 8 houses, half of which weren't home, but she had fn at the 4 houses that were ready for her!

Spokane October 2010

Finally some pictures from our trip...I still need to upload some that Liz gave me on a disc before we left. I feel like I haven't caught up from our two weeks in Spokane! As always, we had a great time seeing everyone but we were exhausted when we finally arrived home. Looking forward to seeing everyone again in July!
