Our little Gracie Cakes! One year pictures!!
Oh how proud I am to be the mommy to this sweet little girl! She has been a joy to have in our family. Its been such a smooth transition going from 1 kid to 2 with this little one. As a baby she hardly ever cried. Slept through the night right from the get go. Shes just so happy all the time. But you know what they say easy baby terrible toddler lol. We shall see....so far so good!
I really love this little outfit with the Owls. I think she looks just like an owl with her big eyes and she hoots like one too lol. Which I have come to learn is quite special. My papa past away exactly a year before she was born in fact my due date was his passing date. Everyone called my papa "Papa Hootie" because of his love for birds! So it only fits that my sweet baby reminds me of him often!
So Ill close this out with one last thing Happy Birthday SWEET Baby Gracie!!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥She fills a place in our hearts........a place we never knew was empty...♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

This photo session just really wore her out lol

Memorial weekend fun!
So this was a fun day of grilling, and swimming! Our big purchase this year was a huge (way bigger than I thought it was gonna be) water slide. But I think its already paid for its self we have had it out just about ever weekend especially in this Texas heat at 100+ everyday, it has been a life saver!! The kids LOVE it of course! Why didn't they have stuff like this when we were younger? I give it another year and little Gracie will be going down that big slide right behind her big sissy. But I will have to say even the adults have a little too much fun on it ;-)






Heres my dear sister being a trooper in the this texas heat at 8 months prego!

And YES I went down it too lol!

Well this was Evas BIG day! She worked so hard all year for this!
Ok so really this day was a proud mommy moment. It brought tears to my eyes to see my baby girl get up on that stage with no fear. I have seen this little baby girl of mine grow so much and mature and become a "kid" so fast this year. I really think the first year of dance is so special for a little girl whether they continue it later in life or not. Its just something that every little girl should experience. And I am so glad we stuck this out because surprisingly shes pretty darn good at it. And we just started summer dance because she just couldn't get enough! Love this girl♥



Signing a card for her teacher Ms Joanna! Thanking her for a great first year!

Definitely a proud daddy moment too!

Dance Dance and more Dance......
So just a quick catch up from this past year...Eva started dance last august in 2010. And honestly by about the end of the second month once the new wore off. I really didn't think this was gonna be "her thing". With the first performance her standing on stage and doing absolutely nothing and the pulling on my leg not wanting to drop her off at dance class. I really just though geeez this is gonna be a long season. But she made some friends and really come out of her shell this year. She performed the rest of her performances with flying colors it was almost as if she was a natural. These pictures were taken at Mayfest where she performed her "Lady Bug Club" performance for many to watch. And she did great! These girls are precious in their cute costumes!



So here we go......
So this is my very first post as a new blogger!! I do have one for my photography but I wanted to try to keep one up to date on my family. I feel like being a photographer I always have so many pictures that I would love to share and yes I do go alittle crazy posting them on facebook. But there are always so many more of just the little things that I would love to share. Lets just see if I have time to keep this thing up to date haha. With two little girls running around there really is not even enough time for me to go the bathroom by myself much less blog but we shall see.....
