Shutterfly Christmas Cards

I know it's crazy early to be thinking about Christmas, but if you're like me you've already taken that perfect family photo, so why not get a jump on addressing all those Christmas cards!  For the last few years we have bought our Christmas cards at Shutterfly.  They have great quality products with unique designs and we have loved our Christmas Photo Cards.  They have some beautiful new cards available for this Christmas and I am already trying to decide which cards we'll be using.  Check out their new styles here: Christmas Cards  Whether you want a folded or flat, whimsical or more traditional design, one or many photos Shutterfly has the perfect card for you.  Take a minute to look and friends and family, you'll be seeing our family photos on one of these precious designs in your mailbox in less than 2 months!

Kids Portraits

I am not ashamed to say I'm a blogging slacker. BUT you've gotta give me some credit. I was doing well catching up until we had an influx of visitors and took a trip in March before David broke his leg at the beginning of April. Since then life has been completely upside down, but thankfully the kids were well enough while Nanny & Papa were her to get their portraits taken. I couldn't have done it by myself, so I was glad they were here to help and our resident photographer, Key at Picture People, did a stellar job as always. These were Tim's 9 month portraits and Grace's 2.5 year portraits.  I'll try to get caught up on the blog, but I may just post a picture reel from the last 6 months and call it a day!

6 Months Old

Our sweet boy is now almost 7 months old!  I can't believe it, time never goes faster than when you have a new baby.  These pictures were taken on his 6 month half birthday.  He is such a happy boy, I am so in love!!



He laughs with his entire face, I could eat him up!
And because we can't have a post without my sweet girl, here's a few pictures of her from the same day.
She loves to get in the laundry baskets.

LOVE this face!

Grace Turns 2!

The weekend Grace's party was supposed to happen none of the guests could come because of the stomach bug that our sweet girl ended up with the night before. Thankfully we had already canceled the party and at the last minute were able to get a few friends together the following Saturday for a celebration of our precious Grace.

We headed up to the park she loves so much and rented a pavilion where we had pizza, fruit, snacks and of course, cake. The theme this year was Mickey as when her Mimi was here while Tim was being born she was introduced to Mickey Mouse's Clubhouse and she LOVES Mickey. We had a great time despite it being one of the colder days and Grace had a blast! Here are a few pictures from her 2nd birthday!

So excited about her cupcake!

While we were at Lake Lanier we had a second party for her on her actual birthday (which this year was Thanksgiving).  We always said we'd make a big deal out of birthdays having parties on holidays if necessary.  She felt very loved and celebrated and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the cake.


Cupcake cake a'la Mickey
