11 months old!

How sad that my baby will be 1 in 12 days yet I am just now FINALLY posting her 11m pictures!!
Not much going on with her... no more teeth... she still has two! And walks along things all day but still has no any desire to walk away from them. She has taken a few steps but truly would rather crawl than walk haha! With G we would encourage her every chance we got but with this little miss we are letting her take her time and are in no rush for her to grow up and become independent!

She is still my blonde haired blue eyed baby!

She loves loves her sissy!

She gives kisses but they are more like fishy kisses haha!

She loves playing kitchen and is either playing on her little slide or in the kitchen!!

BIG girl is having a BIG birthday soon!

Stay tuned we have a LOT of celebrating coming up! Her actual birthday Daddy has to work all day so we won't get to celebrate with him, but the following day he has off so we will be taking her out for a special birthday lunch as a family. Then of course a week later we will be having her fun Pearls and Pink Lemonade birthday party!

This little miracle will be celebrated a ton!

Christmas in August!

Yes I will admit I am a LITTLE obsessed when it comes to Christmas and since I have a close friend who thankfully shares my same "dedication" we decided we needed a little merry and jolly in our STINKIN' HOT SUMMER!

Even Snowman earrings!!! 

We planned a Christmas in August day! We crazies dressed our children in long sleeved Christmas clothes and jammies, watched The Grinch and had Apple Cide and Hot Chocolate in Christmas cups of course! 

The girls had a lot of fun! I think I may try it do it every year!! 

Nothing like the CHRISTmas spirit to spread some love!

The new me... and the new mini me ;)

Gracelyn is almost 3 and YES we just finally cut her hair for the VERY first time! I thought I would be sad but she looks so cute that I am glad we did it! At first she was excited to be in the chair and wear the fishey smock.. then about 4 min into it she asked to get down haha

So we let her get down for a quick little break... she played with the dogs and then we got to the snipping!

Thank goodness Nana came with us to entertain the girls while Mommy got her haircut too!

 

8 inches chopped off....

TADA! We love our new do's!

Saylor Wedding Reception!

The beautiful reception was held at the Wrigley Mansion! The views from the house were gorgeous and watching the sun set over the valley with flashes of lightening in the horizon were breathtaking!

David loved dancing with his girls!!

Lots of dancing!

Introducing the GORGEOUS Mrs. and Mrs. Saylor!!

They were SO happy and looked so in love as they shared their first dance.

After a delish meal I changed the girls into their jammies and Ella started to fade as G hit the dance floor again!

 She passed out and spent the rest of the evening sleeping in her stroller as David and G continued to dance and dance and dance!

Then the happy couple cut the cake!

Then the kiddos started to fade... so we said our goodbyes and headed home!

Congratulations to the Saylors!! We are so blessed to call you family :)
