Camera phone unload!

Well, I wanted to type a caption under each photo, but I guess I am still figuring out blogging from my phone!....at this point, it's way less frustrating then the computer! So, get creative with your own caption ideas...I'm sure I was thinking the same thing;)

didn't make the cut!

some favorites that did not make the cut!

up next..christmas card outtakes:)

Goodness this kid is beautiful..and rotten all at the same time!!

Harper's birth announcement

So, I was worried that I was not going to get a birth announcement that I liked, but it turned out to be my favorite!  I started calling photographers when we got home from Abilene and the three that I called were booked since it was so close to Christmas..bummer:(  But my friend Tylene stepped in to save me!!  She wasn't loving theses pictures as much as me..something about lighting not being great, but I think she ROCKED it! 

I found a lady on ETSY to design her announcement (district 9 design) since I looked EVERYWHERE and couldn't find anything I loved.  I cost me $15 for her to design it, it was done in 24 hours and I loved it!  She sent it to me in a JPG and I sent that to Sam's and got 125 photos for 30 dollars..not bad!  Totally recommend this to all my pregnant friends!  Also, love that Sam's does 6x8 size..bigger is better, right!

Love that sweet girl and her sweet face..even if it is currently covered in acne:(

My daddies are cool

Charlie got the coolest gift in the mail from Mark..and he loved it!  Mark is currently deployed again in Afghanistan and he has sent Charlie a few things this time, but this book tops them all!  It's green eggs and ham..with a DVD so they can read it together.  Charlie had no idea that when Mark would ask a question about the book.. that Mark couldn't hear Charlies response!  To cute!!

I could blame blogger, but I was to lazy to turn this picture!

Look closely..Mark sat down with his gun on his chest and then took it off.  So Charlie got to see it..and thought that was the coolest thing EVER!!!  That was what he talked about all night!

Taking a video to send to Mark to tell him thank you..I should have put that on here..totally entertaining!

Mark reading to him.  Mark is soooo good with Charlie..always has been..he is just a natural.  He has a son also now that is 1 1/2 and I think both boys are lucky to have him.

The best part..the part that had me crying..not even just misting..full on crying (behind charlies back) was Mark talking to Charlie at the beginning.  He said all kinds of sweet stuff and then told him they were going to pray before they read the book.  Then he said a prayer that had me saying a praying thanking God that Mark was Charlie's other daddy.  We really are so blessed!

So many captions, so little time!

Again..why did no one mention I looked like this..that's besides the point I guess..

Looking through these pictures made me laugh..see for yourself:)

Okay picture..minus the whole drowned rat look..

Then Amber told him to kiss me..

His look says "ya, that's never going to happen"

Me: "Kiss me..you know you want to" 

 Him: "No, in public I really don't want to"..if I avoid eye contact then maybe she'll get the hint..

"DO IT"

"Goodness she is persistent..how could I have forgotten that with the whole "stalk me for 8 yrs till I agreed to marry her"..

"Sucker..doesn't matter if he caves and kisses me..he caved 8 yrs ago and that's all that matters!!!"

My favorite florida pictures!

My sister in law snapped theses while we were in Florida and I loved them!!  They turned out so good!  Someone asked why we did not use them for a birth announcement, and the only reason that we did not was because I had something else in mind!  Her birth announcements turned out so cute and as soon as I get them all mailed out then I will post it!  Till then, enjoy these beauties!!

I put this one on because it makes me laugh..check out my nails!  I did a super fun pinterest inspired nail painting/newspaper thing with the oldest three nieces and it was fun and turned out cute!  But the white nail polish...not cute on this pale girl!

this never quite went as planned!

One more Florida post and then I am done..and can move on to the 6 pictures that I have taken in December!
