Monumental occasion!

For anyone who has kids in diapers knows that the day your house becomes 100% diaper free is a day like no other... it truly deserves it's own national holiday. However, in my family's case I'll settle for a little underwear dance party. Oh yeah, that's how we roll. Only it's not so pretty with the big guy and me so we'll just leave that to the cute buns trio.

Seriously though, when we threw away the last and final wadded up diaper that happen to have found itself a nice quiet home behind the twiners bedroom door - don't worry, the diaper was bone dry just like all the other ones for about the last month - I decided (in my head) it would be an awesome thing to light a match and watch it burn, baby burn! But, thankfully that convo only happened in my head and so our neighbors were spared of any trash can fire that might have erupted in front of our house.

So, there you have it folks... my so called "babies" are turning 4 in just a couple of months and I'm diaper free... WOW! Next thing you know these kiddos are gonna want to go to something called a 'preschool'... ummmm, yeah, I don't think so... when you are the last baby/kid in this house I refuse to let you grow up. Sorry B+B, but even when you turn 14 I will most likely still be referring to you as "the babies"... sad, but true!

And just for the record, the answer to your internal question/comment is that we have been blessed with 3 lovely, beautiful little stinkers that nearly ripped my heart out trying to get here and we are not in a place now (or in the near future) to "pay" to get more here again... if you know what I mean. So, at this point I'm banking on a miracle if we were to be blessed with any more. There you have... your personal access to my world of TMI! Enjoy your stay!

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Wee little princess...

Oh man, where does one begin to describe our little peanut. For starters I still get a kick out of the random folks that ask me almost weekly what the age difference is between the B's... then the genuine look of shock and awe when I tell the unsuspecting person that they are in fact twins. Let's see...what else about Brooke... -She bounces EVERY where she goes...she can never just walk places she has to twirl, bounce, you name it -She is the most amazing UNtrained dancer EVER...at least that's what her Grandma Herrick would say! -She has the most loving heart I have ever witnessed...loves and cares so unconditionally -Wants to be just like her big sister in the worst way -Has my chin...and it's soooo cute! -Her prayers will melt your heart...no joke! -Still prays everyday that her Grandma will be strong and healthy and we don't dare correct her -Always wants to be on the go and constantly asks to go to the mall -Has the sweetest bond with her bro and I...

Random photos...

Whenever I have a photo shoot planned at my house in my little “studio” I always beg and plead with the kiddos to sit for just a second so that I can get the lights and set up just right before the actual shoot. Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]
