Marine Corps Ball!

*NOTICE*!
NOT SURE IF YOU SLIGHTLY BLIND FOLKS OUT THERE (papa) KNOW ABOUT THIS BUT I JUST DISCOVERED IT MYSELF, YOU CAN ACTUALLY *CLICK* ON THE PICTURES & THEY MAKE THEM HUGE!!

The ball was fun, but Vegas is of those places where once is enough. And I had that "once" last year when My friends came out. I was sick to my stomach all weekend worrying about my two babies and just ITCHING to get home!! So finally, WE ARE HOME!!

Mugs we got, says Happy (234th) Birthday Marine Corps

If you're like me, and can't spell, especially big words such as "Reconnaissance" then you wouldn't notice on the cake that it's spelled wrong.

After the Ball!

Obviously, these pics aren't in order.

Always trying to be a photographer & get "different" types of pictures! His dress blues are AWESOME right!?

He likes to pretend to be a photographer, too so he secretly took this one of me.

He just looks sooo handsome, doesn't he!

Thanksgiving

Greetings!!
Hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving with the ones they love.. I know I did! Josh's brother & sister came here Wednesday night and left on Sunday morning. Josh really enjoyed getting to spend time with his siblings! :) Kinsley was excited to have company again, bless her heart she's going crazy without her cousins! Part of me wishes time would hurry so Abrielle would be big enough to play with Kinsley but the bigger part of me doesn't wish that at all!! As I was feeding Abrielle last night/early morning I thanked God for not giving me twins, I couldnt imagine how hard that would have been, feeding TWO babies in the middle of the night, TWO diapers, getting TWO babies back to sleep?!!! It made me think of our cousin Joanna & how hard the first few months must have been on her! I'm so thankful for my ONE little healthy baby! :) Of course Kinsley decides to sleep past 9am on the morning I get up at 6 with her sister... I need energy, anyone have suggestions??

Here's pictures from Thanksgiving & the past week!

sucking her thumb! sooo cute...

Josh got up with her in the middle of the night cause she was crying & he wanted me to get sleep, isnt he sweet!

Ga-Ga's last day in California

We're sad to see "Ga Ga" leave us tomorrow!! Kinsley has especially enjoyed her stay. I'm not looking forward to 'ga ga withdrawls' whatsoever!!! Today she curled Kinsleys hair and here's the results....

PRECIOUS right!!!!!?

Playing with the webcam! We have Skype if you ever wanna "see" us! :)

Don't worry she just let out a little cry & stopped..

This is what I LOVE about newborns, their squishyness.. They're so needy, I love it.


That's all for now, I've been up basically for 24 hours and I'm super duper TIRED! Happy early Thanksgiving! Jessica & Jacob (josh's siblings) will be joining us on Wednesday night-Saturday for some Thanksgiving festivities!

XOXO

One Week Old

This is her today..



Today Abrielle is one week old! No, I can't believe it!! She is still such a good baby, sleeps & eats, that's about it. We've been able to keep her awake a little more lately which is nice to actually see her eyes! At night she lets us sleep for 4 hours at a time, during the day she eats about every 2 and a half, 3 hours. Kinsley's an awesome big sis! No jealousy at all.. Yet at least :) She always says "Ohh She's so cute!!"

Here's some pictures from her first week of life :)

Wild big sis!

Believe it or not she's been smiling since day one!!

She's hereee!

Sorry But I am soooooo tired all of a sudden so I can't type everything.. Born 11.11.09 6:36am 7lbs 2oz 20 inches long!! Beautiful, HEALTHY, and PRECIOUS baby!!!!! All thanks to our Heavenly Father! :)

XOXO ME
