Fall Family Pictures 2011















While in San Antonio last week we had family pictures made courtesy of our friends, Kenneth and Rachel Rogers and their FrameWorthy Photography business. They turned out great! Here are a few of the best shots of our little pumpkins :).

16 Weeks-Vacation, Vera, and a VERY Pretty Girl




































We had a busy week full of lots of fun and smiles. Bella Joy took her first road trip to San Antonio (4 hours away). She hates the car seat so we were a bit concerned, but overall she did okay. She got to experience her first trip to a Vera Bradley Store where she talked, smiled, and was mesmerized (it's in her blood :-)). She enjoyed time with her big brother at Sea World and we had family Fall pictures made. Earlier in the week she sat up in her Bumbo for the first time and absolutely loved it! She has been talking so much-we call it her "squacking". She loves Praise Baby music and we really think she is trying to sing along. Our precious Bella may have a music career in her future :-). We think that Bella thinks her name is "Pretty Girl" because we say it to her so much that now when others tell her she is a "pretty girl" , she breaks into a big grin :). How Blessed we continue to be by our sweet Joy!!

15 Weeks-Our Pretty Sunflower


















































Our precious Bella had a busy week full of smiles, giggles, Fall Festival parties, holding her own binky, and celebrating her sister, Savannah's, Heaven Day. Jaythan's school had a Fall Festival on Wednesday and he dressed as Buzz Lightyear, and Bella was the prettiest Sunflower ever! She especially loved chewing on her tutu :). She loves to chew on her entire hand, and we are wondering if she is beginning to teeth. On Friday, we celebrated Savannah's Heaven day, and Bella wore a pretty outfit with Butterflies on it to honor her sister. She gave me so many smiles that day-a true gift of joy and healing she has been to our hearts!! On Saturday, Bella was mesmerized at Elmo Super Heroes Live, and we think she enjoyed it as much as her big brother!
