Memorial Day


Rebecca! So pretty!



And Laura! I know every picture I take of her is in the bath but they are all so cute! And you can really see her new snagle tooth.


Besides getting a new tooth Laura started crawling this week! I am so excited!!


We had another great weekend! We took the girls to the park for a picnic.


And to Costco. I told Rebecca our plans for the day and she said, "Costco! I love Costco!"


Laura and Michelle! This weekend we also went to Virginia! We really just went for the day on Sunday. We work up at 4 in the morning to get on the road on Sunday and Monday so the girls could sleep in the car and it was awesome! I also slept in the car and feel like we traveled through time.


The weather was so beautiful!! I can not believe I forgot to get a picture with Grandma and Harry! We stayed with them and also go to see Walt, Lloydine, Lindy, Michelle, Josh and Josh. So fun!


Rebecca and the Joshes! Little Charmer. She LOVED all the attention this weekend and especially enjoyed telling us all what to do. At one point she had us all full on holding hands and singing ring around the rosies.


Today we had Matt's mama, grannies and Maria, Joseph and Riley over for super. Here is Rebecca showing off the necklace Oma brought her from Hawaii. Movie star!

9 Months


Baby Laura! She had her 9 month check up on Thursday and she's doing great. She's 50% for weight and 85% for height.


She's enjoyed all the table foods I've given her so far (black beans, sweet potatoes, carrots) and she's getting better and better with her sippy cup.



Fun in the bath! This crazy girl has also started saying mama and dada. She's really just babbling but it's still exciting.


Cute Rebecca! She is really into wearing my flip flops and calls them her flippy floppies. If she ever asked to be picked up while I was holding Laura I'd say I couldn't pick her up while I was holding the baby. The other night Matt held Rebecca and Laura at the same time and Rebecca though it was the greatest thing ever. She said, "My dad is super strong! He can hold two girls!" Several times since then, out of no where, she has told me her daddy is super strong. :)


Rebecca is still into taking pictures with my phone. Artistic.


We had a really fun weekend! Just playing and running errands. The highlight was Ariel's dance recital. It was so much fun!! She invited us for the dress rehearsal which was such a good idea because we got to see all of the costumes and dancing but people were coming and going and taking pictures so we didn't have to stay in our seats and be totally quite the entire time. Rebecca loved it! She was sad that she didn't get to be on stage but really enjoyed watching all the dancers and lasted a lot longer than I thought she would.


Sweet, sweet girls

Mother's Day


Rebecca! So much fun at the park!! We've had the best weekend! On Friday Matt and I took the girls to Hanes park and Bob's Big Gas for super. 


On Saturday we went to Elkin and got to visit with the Yarboros. So much fun. They have so many toys.


Sweet Justin. They call him Rooster... because he's cocky. 


Happy Mother's Day!! We spent the night in Elkin and all went to church this morning and got to have lunch with Granny Marie and Granny Foda. We are so lucky to be so close to our family. When Rebecca saw Matt taking some of our luggage out to the car she said, "Daddy, I'll just say here." She loves staying with her Oma!


Laura is 9 months old today! She got her first taste of table foods...cheerios! She loved them! I hope I'm going to have another good eater. 


Such a doll! She is doing better and better on her tummy but still will not roll over and doesn't try to crawl, just slides around on her tummy like a lizard. 


Good morning, daddy! The last two weeks Matt's been out of town a few days for work. We definitely miss him while he's gone!


Rebecca at Biscuitville- our favorite place! As soon as she gets done with gymnastics on Saturdays she says, "Let's get biscuits!"


Ariel! This is our most awesome babysitter. She lives right across the street and she is so good with our girls. We love Ariel!!


Ready for bed!
