Where to start?

This blog post is so long overdue that I don't even know where to begin. The girls and I just returned from our two week stay in Birmingham and it was lovely to see all of our friends and family, but it's so great to be back home. I've decided that I'll mostly let the pictures do the talking and I'll fill in the gaps.

The morning of our departure, Aurora decided she needed a sausage biscuit,
so she found one and {almost} ate it.

On Friday, Daddy, Mimi, Big Daddy and Tristan took off to the McWane Center where Tristan laid on a bed of nails {for real}.

The little big room...too cool.

The girls slept in the crib I used when I was a baby.


We went to Gus Mayer to visit Grandmother's friends...Aurora did some flirting with Drew.

Lily came to play with Aurora and Bettye Katheryne


Who would have ever predicted this....?


Barrett was too cute!


The girls took their first trip to the lake


Cathy and Ashleigh came to play


Aurora was ready to come back home

Things we learned over the last two weeks...

Aurora will always find something to crawl under

Given the opportunity, Bailey will lick you right in the nose

Mommy can put your diaper on you from any angle

Mrs. Denise is really good with the nighttime routine

Teething babies don't care how badly you want a photo taken

My mother's camera flash makes Bettye Katheryne do this...


No matter how large the space, they will end up like this

Aurora can fall asleep in the stroller

And last but not least...I have the cutest kids in the world!

  1. Such sweet pictures! I wish I still lived in Birmingham, so I could have seen all of you! You do have the cutest girls in the world (second only to my baby, of course)! I'm sure you are glad to be home again, what a fun two weeks though!
