Mmm Mmm

You know it's a good day when this is what you see in your trash. :)

Get yo'self into that frame!

So I have come up with a resolution to get into my family pictures. If you're a mom and are like me then most of you're probably not in hardly any of the photos. This is why I have come up with a goal to take self portraits---especially with my kids. My tripod has become my best friend. (Side note: if you want to join me in my quest to take better pictures please join me in my 365project. I would seriously love some company.)

Another side note: These pictures are almost a direct copycat of the amazing Brooke Snow. Love her.

How ya doin!?

Gifts from Grandma

Grandma Joslin has given us lots of goodies this year. 

Here is Sabrina's new blanket. I especially love the little heart stitching around the edges. There was a lot of thought put into the details! (Side note: I tried taking a better picture but this was the best one that came out. I will have to try again later).


Here is Sophie with her blanket from Grandma. (She is 9 months old here).

In this photo you can see the girls with their new adorable owls that they got for Christmas. Grandma even stitched in their names on each one!


Thank you, Grandma!

Like Daddy like Daughter

There are a lot of similarities between Sabrina and her Daddy. As we have gotten to know Sabrina these past 5 months, we have realized that she had inherited a lot of her Daddy's traits.

1. Tongue Tie

I already went into details about that one here.

2. Other Deformities

Dave has a "gnarled" finger. Sabrina has a flat head.

When we went shopping for Christmas gifts we were looking at some cute owl puppets at Ikea to get for Sabrina. Dave picked up one and said smiling "We should get this one." I looked at it. The owl's head was crushed in on one side. Just like Sabrina's. I said no, and got an owl with a perfectly shaped head instead.

Her flat head has gotten significantly better the past couple of months.

3. Head Rubs

When I was dating Dave, I quickly learned that Dave purrs like kitten when his head massaged. Sabrina as well loves head rubs.

So it looks like it's just deformities and head rubs that these two have in common. That's okay. They're both pretty cute.
