.: Chubby Babies :.

This is Hallie with her best friend Aubrey.

We took their pants off to compare their chubby legs.

Aubrey is a little more aggressive than Hallie as you can see.

Love the rolls girls! Keep up the good work!

.: Girls:.

Just some cute pics I found on Randy & Toni's computer that they took of the girls.

Whitnie took these ones on Valentines Day

She looks a little disheveled here, she had just woken up from her nap.

She also has an obsession with bandaids.

.:Kenzie's Games:.

We've been to a couple of Kenzie's basketball games lately and it has been so much fun to watch her play. It brings back a lot of memories from when I used to play in Jr. High and my freshman year.

The Team & The Coach (My Dad)

Sometimes, I just like taking pictures for no good reason. The End.

.: Haircut :.

So for the past 3 years I have always just trimmed Brynlie's hair. You know, just to even things out. About every 6 months I would give her just a little trim. I decided it was time for a real haircut. So I made her an appointment with Brittany, our cousin, who also does my hair. Here are some pics.

Cute little A-line bob

She looks like a little lady. I love her new 'do.

.:Aquarium:.

Here are some pictures from our adventure at The Living Planet Aquarium

Bryn & Me on the giant frog

These little sting rays were so cute. It amazes me how they are black with white polka dots. Crazy

Meagan & Kian

.: Shop Till Ya Drop :.

She's my little shopping buddy.

She has an obsession with mannequins

More here

Loves the Old Navy Pup

And another one

Loves hanging out with Kian

And literally shopped till she dropped. Shopping is hard work!

.: ❤ Valentine's Day ❤ :.

Valentine's Day was great this year! Jeff decided at the last minute to take a half day off of work and he took me out to lunch to Texas Roadhouse. Then we went to the movies to see "Just Go With It" It was such a funny movie! At one point I was laughing uncontrollably with tears running down my face! It was so nice not having to wait or fight the crowds of people. We decided we will do a lunch date every year from here on out. He also surprised me with roses and some cute clothes.

I made these cute gumball necklaces for the girls to give their cousins (and Whitnie and Kenzie) and found some cute puppy suckers for the boys. Thanks Meagan for showing me the cute website where these necklaces can be found!

Here is Bryn wearing her necklace! She also got a shirt and a lollipop from us and that cute beanie baby bear from her Great Grandpa and Grandma Pearson.

Hallie with her shirt. Sorry little one, you will be able to eat more treats next year.

.: 9 Months :.

(Photo taken by Meagan)

This little girlie is 9 months old today

Here are a few little tidbits about Hallie:

She knows how to wave hello and goodbye

She even says "Ba-ba" for bye

She recently learned how to clap and it is so adorable

She says "Mama" and "Dada"

She still doesn't have any teeth

She is sleeping all night, averaging 11 hours a night. (about 9pm-8am)

She loves being on her tummy and is trying to get up on her knees all the time.

She hasn't started to crawl yet and I'm glad she's not in a hurry because neither am I.

She gets so excited when Bryn plays with her.

She is definitely a Mommy's girl.

We love Hallie so much, she is the sweetest little girl.

I often think back on the weeks just following her birth.

How she was struggling and how we were always so worried about her.

I vividly remember the night when I followed her and Jeff in the ambulance

and honestly not knowing if we were going to lose her that night. How could I forget?

I remember just praying over and over again and pleading with Heavenly Father

to please let her be okay, and please let her get through this.

I am so thankful that my prayers were answered and that she is healthy now and she is learning and growing. I always notice how she has always been so attentive and alert.

She just takes everything in. My mom noticed the same thing and said "she is wise beyond her years." She is definitely a special little girl,

and we love her so much.

More than words could ever say.

.: 3 :.

On Saturday this little girl turned three~ how did this happen? I am still wondering! Of course I will be posting all about it in the near future. Just wanted to jot this down so I don't forget it!

Last night she put her arms around my neck and kissed me on my cheek and said to me, "You are my favorite girl" I just about tipped over because it was the cutest thing ever.

(Pics taken by Meagan, I will post more of them soon! Thanks girl)

.:Dancing Girl:.

A few weeks ago Bryn started a little dance class and she loves it. It is so entertaining to watch her as she learns and does everything her teacher tells her. Her teacher calls her "Miss Bryn" and Brynlie loves her, and all of the cute girls in her class!

Here she is all dressed up and ready to go

First position

She even got to dress up in a tutu and wear a princess crown, lucky girl!

Bryn keeps telling Hallie that someday she will be big and they will be able to dance together, it is the cutest thing.

.:Be Mine:.

Meagan and I got together and made these cute Valentine Banners.

They were super easy and turned out pretty cute!

Good thing I was paying attention when I glued on the letters... Backwards!

I can't believe I really did that... oops!
