Joy

Man oh man!  Kids are a ton of work but they are soooooo worth it! The JOY they bring us far out weighs the frustration and tears :) haha! For reals, we love these precious, funny little ones!

 Eve is 4 months old now

Ethan, Ethan Bo Bethan!

 Love the forced smile and pose.
The owl Ethan is holding (upside down) is his favorite and brings him along on a lot of outings.

Awwwww, baby and Daddy...so adorable!

My little sister put these eyelash extensions on me and I love them!
They are my new found JOY :)

 My little sister and my step mom are going to eye lash extension school and so I
get hooked up with free lashes and fills.  It is so fun!

Totally blog worthy!

I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooo flipping excited!!!  Bill just let me know that my favorite show ever is back for a 5th season on Netflix!!!  See below :)  Oh happy day!  David Tutera rocks!!!  Love him!

Ethan and Eve 6.18.13

Emma has been loving on Eve like crazy from the moment she met her, Ethan on the other hand had very little interest in holding or touching Eve when he came to the hospital.  We let him take his time and come around to check her out when he was good and ready...so 8 days after she was born he decided he wanted to hold her :)  Better late than never. Aren't they cute?!

Dallas Zoo rocks!

I took both kids to the zoo yesterday since Emma had off of school.  Also, I knew there would be NO way I would be going to the zoo in the heat of the summer and with a new born in that nasty summer heat so I figured we'd better go now.  My due date is coming up soon...1 month 18 days!!  And yes, what made the zoo trip possible was the fabulous electric scooter/wheelchair thing I rented.  Too much pain right now :(  Kids loved riding on it with me.  It was really such a pleasant zoo experience.
