Christmas with Shutterfly

Christmas is coming soon! It will be here before we know it. Shutterfly is great website for pictures! We plan to get AK's Christmas cards printed through them this year. Shutterfly offers so many things: prints, calendars, photo books, home decor, etc. The website is very easy to navigate and is a great way for out of town family to view and order pictures. I am really excited to put together a photo book for Anna Kate's 1st year. I may have to break it down and do smaller books because we have so many pictures!! I also love the calendars where you can include family pictures for each month of the year. To me, they are a lot better than any store bought calendar!! Shutterfly.com is offering 50 free cards to any blogger who writes a post about their Christmas cards. I should only have to order a few more after this offer! Go to shutterfly.com to learn more!! I think this is the card I want to use for our family Christmas card

I love how we will be able to get some many pictures on one card!!!

Happy Thanksgiving

This was Anna Kate's 1st Thanksgiving. We had both of our families over to our house to celebrate! We were responsible for cooking the turkey and Bryant did a great job! I can't take any credit (I really just stood and watched). Here are a few pictures from our weekend.
AK helping daddy season the turkey. She loves to sit in the bumbo chair and watch!


With her tutu and turkey on ready for all of her visitors to arrive!


Very tired after a long day!


Look who can wear a bow now!!!!


She has officially found her feet!


I like the bigger bow on her

We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We sure did!

Last Few Days...

Just wanted to include this picture I took this morning :)

I go back to work on Friday :( I know AK will be absolutely fine because she is such a good baby. I am doing my best to think about this in a positive way. I know I will be fine once I get back into the swing of things. I just can't seem to wrap my mind around teaching again after being out for 3 months. I know that once I get back to work, I will be happy to be there. I love my job and all of my co-workers! And of course the kids too! I really have peace about leaving her because the ones who I am leaving her with love her just about as much as I do! Just say a little prayer for me on Friday :)

3 months old


Anna Kate is 3 months old today! She is getting to be so much fun! Her personality has really begun to develop and she is a very active little girl. She loves to people watch and has become very observant. She smiles just about every time she sees our faces and loves to watch Sophie. Just this week I have seen her first "real" tears and heard her laugh out loud. She is beginning to out grow size 1 diapers and 3 month clothes. Compared to her 2 month picture, she looks so big! She is rolling over both ways now and prefers to sleep on her tummy. I always lay her down on her back but as soon as I walk out of the room, she has rolled over and put her bottom in the air. It is so cute! AK we love every minute with you!!!
