A Word in Pictures :: Messy

This month's theme is "Messy". Messy can be many things, so here is what I experience in my life of messiness.

Messy is...

    Frustrating.

    A reminder to be thankful.  

    A normal part of everyday life.

    Beautiful.

    Fun.

    Special.

Now head over to Jody's blog to see her "Messy"!!

Another Week Gone By...

This week at our house was another week of just enjoying being home and out of the cold. :) We continue to get more used to life with two boys, and I already can't believe how fast it's gone. Some highlights have been...

• I got to go to Target all by myself and Dan took me out to dinner, just us. :)
• We got to spend Saturday with our good friends, Tim & Arlee, and got some amazing family photos done. You can check out their website here.
• Gavin's umbilical cord finally fell off. Probably not a big deal to you, but it is SO much easier to change his diaper without that thing and I am looking forward to giving him a real bath. :)
• Aiden got to get out of the house a couple times and spend time with some of his favorite people!

 God has blessed us and we continue to thank Him!

New Socks

Aiden's newest obsession is socks. He wants to change them at least twice a day, sometimes more. He doesn't like plain 'ol white ones, but any other one with color! His absolute favorite are his "Elmo socks". :) I have no idea how this love for new socks came about, but it's really funny to see what captures his attention and so I spent a couple days photographing a few of his favorites.
