Smarty pants

I was just walking down stairs with braylie from working out and with her cast on she has a harder time with stairs so I was going to just hold her hand and help her stabilize a little. But then my sweet little girl pulls her hand back and says, "no I do it myself. Thanks though." I turned around and was like "what!" she is so smart and picks up on the nice things she hears I stead of the bad for the most part ;) she really is a very polite little girl and knows her manners pretty well I think for a two year old!! Or maybe I'm just a proud mama but either way it made my morning! :D

And then...! When we came downstairs just now I put on incredibles for her so I can shower while Traetyn is asleep and when the movie starts she looks at me and says with her finger over her lips, "mom quiet, Traetyn sleeping."
Always looking out for her little brother and of course mimicking what's she's heard me say multiple thousands of time!! <3 I am such a blessed mommy!!!

I'm obsessed....

I am obsessed with two things (well prob more, but two that are relevant to this post)
1. My kids!
2. Getting pictures done

I LOVE to have pictures taken of my kids and to have family pictures taken also. I've always loved the
Power and special memories that s photograph can capture. Especially now being a mom, I feel like my kids and our family changes so quickly that I just want to document every step. :D my poor husband haha, he is not the picture taking type but he is dodo good to me and is *mostly* patient with me and this *obsession* of mine:) do here are some photos we had taken last Saturday for Traetyn's one year old pictures (which his birthday is uthis Sunday! How crazy!!) and then we had family pictures done, spouse photos, and even some grandma and grandpa Harry because they were there helping out with the kids! (thanks mom for making the kids laugh and smile/be distracted haha and thanks to my dad for being the carrier of all things including my diaper bag, the kids bag with changes of clothes and the numbers that the kids held for pictures!) we also got some for braylies three year old pictures even though her birthday isn't until July :)
Thank you Sheri Blaisdell for the orange chair and blue bench and to Robin Golden for the white chair!!

It's kinda photo overload but here they are.... ENJOY!
