Daddy's Girls

Daddy surprised Bryden and I with breakfast in bed this morning! What a great man and daddy...I think we'll keep him around! We had a yummy spread of french toast, scrambled eggs, grapes and apples! Now THIS is the life! Thanks Daddy!

Pregnancy Pics - 28 weeks

YAY! We finally made it into our thrid trimester! Only 12 more weeks! We are all ready for little Kiwi to be born, especially Bryden. She asks me nearly every day "Mommy, is today the day that Kiwi is coming out?" She is anxious to be a big sister! I am trying to explain to her that we have to make it through Christmas, New Year's and Valentine's before Kiwi is ready, but time is a hard concept for her to understand at this age. She is being very patient though and putting her big sister skills to work by talking to Kiwi and singing to him/her and rubbing my belly! So cute! Here are some pics! Enjoy!

Bryden's Wardrobe Malfunction

Well, according to Bryden, her wardrobe was not in malfunction, but I think to the general public, it is!!! No worries, that is part of the fun of being her age, getting to wear whatever she picks out, and not worrying about what other people think! How many non-coordinating colors can we fit into one outfit?!?!? This outfit could not go without being photographed and shared with family and friends...she makes us so proud!!! (To get the full effect of the outfit, left click on the picture to enlarge it...you can really see all the colors then!)Enjoy!

Christmas Decorating

Time to decorate for Christmas!!! We got our tree up and all of our outside decorations (though they are still being added to!). It is fun because we live three houses down from "The Christmas House" as we call it...you know one of those houses where they go absolutely CRAZY with the amount of lights they put up...yeah, one of those. We love it though, and Bryden enjoys walking down to see the lights each night! Enjoy the pics!

Thanksgiving in Maine

After two LONG weeks without Daddy, we finally got to see him when Bryden and I flew up to Maine for Thanksgiving! Daddy welcomed us at the airport with a big "Daddy-made" sign (thanks Daddy!!!) and we got to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with Daddy's family! Enjoy the pics!

Festival of Trees

Today, Bryden, McKenzie and I went to the hospital where they hosted the Festival of Trees. People decorate trees and wreaths for the Holidays in effort to raise money for a local foundation. They have tons of crafts for kids, which McKenzie and Bryden thoroughly enjoyed! They got to make a reindeer (B made a big one for herself and a little one for Kiwi...too cute!) and a snowman, decorate a cookie, color a picture for Santa, decorate a 1 inch tall wooden tree, make an ornament (which soon turned into a bracelet instead for Bryden!) and...hmmm, well, I think that was about it! Santa and Mrs. Claus were there, but it is the first time this season that Bryden saw them, so she was still to shy to go sit on Santa's lap...she'll be ready in a few weeks! Enjoy the pics!
