And One More Makes...

...Four!

Johnny, Elle, and I are pleased to announce that we are adding a new addition to our little family. Today was my first appointment, and I was excited to get the first ultrasound. I am thirteen weeks along, and due around September 24th. We couldn’t be more pleased or excited; this truly is a blessing in our lives.

Princess Bike

Elle is quite enamored with her new princess bike. Grandma Dalin (aka Yaya) gave her the beloved bike for her birthday. Today was her first day riding it, and she couldn’t have been happier. She is doing pretty well riding it, despite the frustration of the brakes. Thank you, Yaya, for the wonderful birthday present. Elle couldn’t be more pleased.

One Year Older

Where does time go? And why is it going so fast? Today was my twenty-sixth birthday, and I have to say, I no longer enjoy keeping track of my age. As a child growing up, a birthday was such an exciting time. I looked forward to it; I counted down days; I was excited to be one year older. Now, it seems that a birthday only signifies how fast time goes. However, despite my pessimism for the quickness of time, I wouldn’t change one moment. I have enjoyed, learned, and grown in so many ways. I have gained, achieved, and acquired beyond my expectations. Although I am one year older, I am also one year more blessed. So, here is to birthdays and the passage of time.

Twins

Elle really enjoys dressing hers dolls in the same clothes as she, herself, is wearing.

It's Raining, It's Pouring

My Little Girl

We love warm, sunny days.

Nobody Likes Being Sick

Unfortunately, Elle gave both Johnny and I the sickly germs she obtained at Disneyland. It is definitely never fun to have the flu; but worse than that, is having both parents with the flu at the same time. Thank goodness we survived that.
