First video

My new cell phone has a video camera so I thought I would try it out. One of these days Chad and I will get around to buying a real one.

Bath Time

The girls love their bath time. Never a tear, always a smile.

I love this picture of Emma. It captures her playful smile perfectly.

Tummy Time

The girls are getting stronger and stronger by the day.

The Perfect December 1st

The perfect way to start the month of December, Christmas tree hunting and snow. Can't get better than that.

We decided today was the day to go get our frst real Christmas tree. We packed up the girls, Papi and Auntie Kendra and started driving North. We weren't sure where we were going we just knew we wanted to cut it down ourselves. We ended up finding a great little tree farm in Standwood, WA about an hour North of Seattle.

On the hunt for the perfect tree.

Daddy and Madi

Mommy and Emma watching daddy cut down the tree.

The tree was perfect, we found a lucky bird's nest hidden inside. Here is Emma with the lucky nest on her head.

As we got closer and closer to home the snow started falling harder and harder. Here is our house in the first snow.

Still snowing!

Almost done.

Thumbs Up

Miss Madeline found her thumb! At first I thought it was just by chance but she has been sticking it in her mouth and sucking on it all morning. Even when I put her down for her nap the thumb went straight in her mouth. She never has been a big fan of the binky. I know it's cute now, let's just hope the habit isn't around when she hits kindegarten.


A moment of peace. All three babies happy and content on the floor. Madi on the mat, Emma in the swing, and Papi snoozing along side his sisters.

Play Time

The girls are still a little small, but they are getting strong enough to play in the exersaucer for a little while. They LOVE it!

Thanksgiving

I am really bad at keeping this up to date.

For Thanksgiving this year Chad and I took the girls to spend the holiday with Chad's family and friends in Duxbury, Mass. We had a wonderful time catching up with Grandma BB, Great Grammy, Uncle Jake, Grandpa Rick, Grandma Jeffie and the rest of the family. The girls loved meeting all their new friends too.

We had a wonderful visit with Great Gram.

Uncle Jake is so good with the girls. They love playing with him.

On Friday, we went to Westport to see Grandpa Rick and Grandma Jeffie. We had a wonderful dinner and were able to spend time with Rick's side of the family.

Chad's cousin Ted has two beautiful little girls Meredith and Amanda. They were so good with Madeline and Emma, I think we found our perfect little babysitters.
