One Blessed Momma

These are the cute faces SJ makes at me every day.  I feel so blessed to be this little girl's momma. 

Thanksgiving 2010

We had a great Thanksgiving with my parents and the Costellos.  It was just a relaxing time.  It was the first time for me to host a Thanksgiving and thanks to my mom it all went smoothly.  The only bummer is that Sadie Jane got her first cold on Thanksgiving and is still recovering.  I think we are through the worst of it though.  Will decided it was time for Andrew to have a snuggie and bought one for Annette too.  We cracked each other up in these but I have to say they are quite warm! 

Early Morning Daddy Time

Working on a Picture for our Christmas Card

She's giving me a lot to work with.  SJ is my favorite little person to take pictures of:)

5 Months

This last one is my favorite.  This is her newest face when she is about to be fussy about something.  I just can't take that seriously!  It makes me laugh every time.

Happy Birthday Auntie Ang

Happy Birthday Auntie Ang!  SJ did this special picture just for you.  We are so glad we got to spend some time with you last weekend to celebrate your birthday.  You are such a blessing to us and I am so thankful that SJ has an auntie like you!!!  Enjoy your special day.

This is what the birthday sign looked like at the end of the photo shoot.  We took it away just as Sadie got it in her mouth. 

Perfect Timing

SJ is 5 months old today!!!  I can't believe it how quick it is going.  She is no longer a newborn and it is already hard to remember her as a newborn.  She makes lots of noises, smiles often, and likes sitting in her bumbo seat.  I tried to capture a good photo of her today and this is what I got-SJ doing what she does best!  Talk about perfect timing:)

Birthday Weekend 2010

 Here we are starting off our birthday weekend opening gifts-why wait!  These are aprons that our Aunt Gail gave us.

Emmie getting ready for her photo shoot with Sadie Jane

 We tried being "crafty" and made these pumpkins

 Sadie Jane loved having Emmie around to entertain her.  I was hoping I could hire Emmie to stay with us for a while but she didn't like that idea.

 Nana and her girls

Overall it was a great birthday weekend.  We shopped, ate good food, did our craft, and watched a PBR documentary (for my mom).  I love being a part of this family and getting special time with them!
