Dance Recital

Ella had her first dance recital on June 4th, her 4th birthday! She was soooo excited. Her dance was to "Blue Bird" and she loved her blue costume. So cute!

5 Months Old!

I am behind on my blog! Eli is almost 6 months old, so I thought I should hurry up and put up his 5 month photos. He is my super sweet love. I adore him!! He and I have the same philosophy on sleep.... we both love it... so we get along well. He is a drooly mess right now and just got his two bottom teeth. He is also a rolling machine and rolls all over the house. It's amazing how in just a few weeks I went from being able to lay him down and not worry about what he's doing, to now when I can't take my eyes off him for fear that he will roll under a table or find some random Legos or ponytail holders and put them in his mouth. He loves rides in his stroller and we have been going on lots of walks and jogs after we get Noah and Ella in bed. I still can't believe how big he's getting and how fast he's growing.

Jeff and Lacey's wedding

My "little" brother got married on May 28th, 2011 to a wonderful person, Lacey. Ella was the flower girl and Noah was the ring bearer. They were so excited to be in the wedding! I was nervous about how they would do walking down the aisle and standing up near the altar, but they did amazing! It was a beautiful wedding, Lacey was a beautiful bride, and it was a super fun day. Noah had so much fun dancing at the reception. He never stopped smiling the entire day. We are so happy for Jeff and Lacey and so glad to have Lacey in our family.

thanks a latte

I got my little latte projects finished for the kids' teachers. They turned out super cute and were a big hit.

3 days left....... GULP!!!!

Double Gulp! I only have three days of work left and TONS of work to do! I would not recommend coming back from maternity leave in March if you work in a school. Not that I'm complaining.... I'm so glad I was lucky enough to be able to take 12 weeks off. I will get through the next three days just like I do every year. And then........ a nice relaxing summer.

Or not. Every single day in June except for 5 is filled on the calendar already. Between photo shoots, baseball, summer classes for Noah, tennis lessons, Ella's dance recital, Vacation Bible School, etc., etc., we are going to be BUSY! Good thing poor Eli is used to hanging out in his car seat all day.

Miscellaneous

I just wanted to see if I could spell miscellaneous... I think I did it.

The school year is wrapping up quickly! It is overwhelmingly stressful right now at work with evaluations, behavior issues, teachers on the brink of nervous break downs...... a few more days left!!!

Speaking of end of the school year, this is my new favorite blog. Eighteen25- they have the cutest ideas. I am definitely going to be doing the latte gift for the kids' teachers.

I had a couple photo shoots with the kiddos recently. I wanted to get their photos done before I got too busy with clients' photos.... my schedule is filling up quickly.

Random photos

4 months old already!
Is it bad that I think Eli's thumb sucking is adorable? I won't when he's older, but right now I think it's so sweet.
