Little Layla's 3rd birthday party. It was quite the "Pinkalicious" event! Huge kudos to her mommy and daddy for such an adorable party.

would love to know what she is thinking here.

Happy Birthday little Layla!

cousins.

juicy cheeks, heart-shaped face, button nose...

from the time Quinn was born we have always noticed a little resemblance to her older cousin Aidan. some people point it out to us as well. love that you can tell they are family.


I chuckle a little that these were the comparison pics I picked out, because Quinn is usually so smiley and Aidan was always so serious. :)

not to leave our little Liam out, because you can definitely tell that they are all family. one of our favorite pics
Quinn's 3rd cousin is on it's way and due this November. can't wait to see what this little one will look like.

making up for lost time.

something that we have thought a lot about over the last 24 hours. the time you take, the memories created, its all so very worth it.

Date nights are so important. Todd and I enjoyed a delicious night out at the Cheesecake Factory, redeeming some gift cards we had been holding onto for a while. Delightfully yummy. Highly recommend the sweet corn tamale cakes as an appetizer, you won't be disappointed! ~ So important to take a little time for the two of you, and to remember what it's like to be two people in love. (paying your babysitter (aka. grandma ginny) with cheesecake is pretty nice too)

Because experiences are so much more valuable than materials, I sent Todd to a ballgame with his dad for his birthday. They had a day I know they will always remember. (perfect for a father's day weekend)
Ron's first time to Wrigley.
great seats behind homeplate.

Cubbies Win!

And finally, naps have been a little on and off lately for our little girl (ever since she started sleeping so much at night 7pm-7am, takes a bottle and goes back down till at least 9:00). No fussing, just not getting as many long naps. While the boys were away, she made up for that lost time and took a 4 and a half hour sound afternoon nap!

...making up for lost time.

happy weekend.

live. love. enjoy every second.
have this kind of fun.

(even the cozy outfits are the cutest, I am so in love with her 0-3 month wardrobe right now)
