Happy half birthday!!

Look who is 6 months new today!!

 

Amalynn has brought so much happiness to her daddy and me the past 6 months! She is truly one of the happiest little ones I have ever come across!

She is already practicing that look of pure innocence with those gorgeous big blue eyes!  Daddy is in TROUBLE!!!! 

 

Her pictures this month would not be complete if there wasn't one with Sophie!!

 

 

Miss Amalynn is sitting up so well now!  She really only enjoys sitting and standing, the whole laying down thing just isn't for her most days (unless she can roll - and roll and roll and roll!)!!!  She also is quite the talker now.....Grandpa Tom says she comes by it honestly with me as her mom!  Having conversations with this girl around has become a challenge :)

 

Amalynn Hazel - your daddy and I love you through and through to infinity!!!

 

We haven't had to do her shots yet this month so we will have to update her stats later this month!

Catch up time!

I haven't been good about keeping this up the last couple months so prepare for a whole bunch of cuteness over the next couple weeks!! :)

5 months new!!!

Coming soon!!!

4 month new!!

Coming soon!!!!!

Because everyone needs a reason to smile

 

 

I know it's a dark picture but one of my favorites from about 1.5 months ago!

Mother's Day

I know it's out of order and late to be posted but I couldn't be happier to celebrate having this girl in my life. 

 

So blessed to call her my daughter :)

Just her size...

Already has Boug behaving better than he does for us!

 

Doubly Important Day...

John's first Father's Day was also the day we chose to have our angel dedicated.  We were so excited to see all the family that was able to attend the church service with us for this very special occasion!

Daddy and his very special girl!

 

Our very blessed, happy family

 

 

Graduation

Riley is done with high school and off to UW for college.  As much as I will always be a Coug, we couldn't be happier and prouder of him!  Plus Stevie needed at least one family member on his side ;)

All the kids in the same place and the same time for the first time in a long time!!!!

John has this same picture with Rex when he graduated...Alex- you're next!!

Easter Weekend 2013

Meeting the Family...

 

Our first trip over the mountain as a family was a busy one.  It started with a day of driving on Thursday, interviews for John and I in Tri-Cities on Friday, Saturday with the Lyle's for a birthday and then to the Roth's and Sunday with the Freeman's for Easter and Grandpa's birthday.

 

John and I were so excited to introduce our girl to so many family members.  It was a full but very fun weekend.

 

Amalynn got to meet a lot of people including 3 out of 5 of her Great Grandpas!

 

And thanks to Aunt Havila we had an impromptu photo session and were able to get some great shots!

This moment was one of the happiest in our lives!

We finally welcomed our sweet little miracle into this world.  We were blessed to be joined by so many family members that made the trip over the mountain.
