Happy Fall Y'all

Happy Fall! This is such a wonderful time of year. The weather changes, kind of, the leaves change, kind of, and we get prepared for the holidays, kind of! Well come on, we do live in So. Cal where it has been hot, cold, hot, cold... etc. I don't know how to dress my girls from day to day, much less myself for work. I usually am so hot in the morning running around trying to get out of the house, I typically dress for warm weather. Some days it is perfect, other days, not so much. I love this picture of Reagan. She is ALWAYS this happy. We were at Disneyland inside of Woody's Roundup. They always do such a great job decorating this area. It really puts you in the mood for all the holidays upcoming!

Pumpkin Patch

On October 19th, the family took their first trip to the Cal Poly Pomona Pumpkin Patch. A friend had suggested that we go and that it was fabulous! She was so right. I have never seen so many pumpkins together (except, of course, on It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown). We had a blast walking through the pumpkins, taking pictures, and playing the dollar games at the booths. Kylee especially liked walking through the corn maze (it took her all of 1 minute to get through). I hope that this will become an annual event for us in the years to come.

loving life

I look at these two girls and can't believe how blessed I am. I can't even remember having as much fun as I do now that I am a mom. Each day brings so much joy amidst the struggles that life throws at you. Whenever life gets you down, look to those in your life that bring you joy and remember that life is so precious. Enjoy each moment!

falling in love

If you are a parent of two, then you will understand what I am about to say. Have you ever been so in love with your child you don't think you could share your love with another? When I had Kylee, I fell in love so hard! Then I was pregnant with Reagan and worried every day, how am I going to share this love between two? When we met Reagan, I don't know how I ever questioned this. These two girls have allowed me to be so in love in such a way that I am so excited to wake up each day and see what new and exciting thing they will do or say.

dedication

On October 4th, we dedicated Reagan to the Lord. I pray everyday that she loves Jesus and lives a full and blessed life. Her grandparents, auntie & uncle, cousin, and wonderful church friends were there to share in the special day.

Her cousin Emily was also dedicated on the same day. It was so sweet to have them spend this special moment together.

priceless

This picture is priceless. Look at my dad's face. He is such a happy Pa with all his girls around him. I think that retirement suits him! This was taken on his birthday. We like to spoil him and surround him with the girls. I secretly think this is his favorite day of the year! :)

a momentous day

This was such a momentous day! Reagan sat up on her own. She was only 5 months in this picture. I was excited to say the least!
