Because I have been ASKED---

Ok I have been asked by several people for a sneak peek-- so I will share a shot of the P....

Please know the pictures are copyright of

www.kassiehicksphotography.com

and the bows are one of a kinds by

www.caryhairbows.com

both these ladies work very hard to create amazing work-- please know they LOVE referrals and both there business depend on word of mouth-- Kassie graciously shares all her work and does NOT want her images recreated or taken off the sites and Shannon pours her heart into her famous bows that P sports and they too are not to be re-created by others but any may be ordered from HER (it is sad that she has to find identical copies of her work out there in stores and other sellers-- she is the most genuine person and will glady recreate any bow you see P sportin') Please USE these ladies and know they are very good at what they do!!

Ok that is my copyright plea-- per many request and so that no issues arise of posting others work since I can only take credit for the babe in the shots!! Plus in my heart I know my friends and family would NEVER do this-- however there are still copyright rules and we too must follow

Have a GREAT Friday!!

SNEAKY PEEK

Ok I could offer you all a peek at P's stunning pictures however--- we will save that debut for the party-- but till then to satisfy you all here is 1 sneaky peek of the dude-- who tried to par-take but wasnt cooperative!!

I would have to say.....

They are spitting images of each other... in fact yesterday I took the princess up to work and my boss said "there daddy marked them well"...lol

Callen 8 days before his birthday

Paisley 14 days before hers... if the earrings didnt give it away it is Paisers

Last night her brother thought it was FUN--to play dress up with one of his hats and boy did they resemble eachother

Our old hang out--

IS BACK

And better then ever because Callen has a partner in crime this time---Hope Callen is ready for round 2 and Paisley for round one....because I see many hours spent here once again (at least they are both a bit older then the last time-- well older then Callen was at the time)

Lets see which of you can guess where that hang out is...lets call it a challenge the winner gets a PRIZE (seriously I will take guesses till Friday 1st one to get it right gets a PRIZE)

maybe those followers that dont post but check the blog out quite a bit will join in on the FUN (heeheheee I know there are several of you out there the computer says so)

Date Night

Friday we arrived in Austin-- and the little dude was chomping at the bit to take Bebe out on date night-- little did he realize that he is the one to get taken out on date night

(Gasp...look how BIG he looks) (A pose for mom)

(they are dancing not punching eachother)

(dancing with sissy)

(out on the lawn dancing)

(watching the band)


(sissy dancing)

There was live music, dancing with the Bebe, yogurt planet with sprinkles and loads of fun and good food

Her name was.....

Lola--- she was a dancing queen

and she enjoyed the crackers and water and party too.....

Eggs

Last week before we started moving dirt we noticed that a bird was mighty protective every-time we got to a certain spot on the dirt pile......little did we know that she had layed eggs. Daddy moved the eggs carefully with a shovel and gave them a new home

A PRINCESSES FEET---

Should never have to touch the dirt-- however since dirt is playing a BIG part in our lives-- I figured we would break the girl in a bit-- not ever did I plan on us being there in our good clothes but there were some priceless pictures so I played (or should I say snapped) along

You can tell she LOVED being outside and watching what was going on

We have a POND---

(This site just made my sweet little boy giddy and secretly it made momma pretty excited)

Oh me oh my me and my sweet babies were soooo excited to pull up yesterday and see that our sweet daddy worked his tail of this weekend moving dirt--- it is official we now have a pond and hopefully the good lord with produce some rain for the crops and at least pretend to fill it up...

Ok seriously I do wish for the rain as bad as I want a house RAIN is much more important!!! And while this pond wont be there long it is the start to the NEW house--- see we have to dig out 2.5 feet and then use a special soil for the foundation--

To these two this is the fun part--- the constructing and figuring and measuring-- they could do it for hours and yesterday they did-- for me and the sister we long for the part that involves paint, and cabinest and flooring and MOVING in-- but till then we will defiantely settle for the beginning stages--

BRING ON THE DIRT-- cant wait to see the dump truck when I come home today and the piles of dirt!!!

20 days and COUNTING---

Till the Princess turns 1....it is hard to believe that she went from this

( I know for many of you this is a hard picture to look at but it is one of my favorites-- it reminds me where we have come from with my sweet girl and it was our reality for a trickle in time so pardon the harsh picture and know this was the beginning and the beginning of falling sooo in love with our sweet little girl-- she was just as precious them as she is now all 4 lbs of her)

to this.......

(a girl with more character then you could ever imagine-- a smile to melt your soul. She loves attention and is always this happy all 16 lbs of her)

boy what a difference a year makes my little itty bitty, teeny weeny girl is blossoming although she still has many baby qualities I can seem them slowly trickling away and I have to be honest I am just not ready--not yet sweet sweet girl

She is UP

and crawling on all 4's.... goodbye army crawl hello to movin on up...tomorrow I am going to post a video of the little dears new crawling style!

And Dont think

That this little boy doesnt LOVE LOVE LOVE his new cousin!!!

See him bitting his tonque--that is how you know he loves her very much-- in fact he does that quite often when he wants to love Paisley sooo hard but then realizes she is little and he cant squeeze her that hard

A Grandmothers Love

Is multiplied by what I could only imagine to be millions when they have grandkids in their lives--

Can you tell---

These boys LOVE there sisters

I am so greatful Paisley will have an older brother who will hopefully one day watch after her, protect her and help her!

I think the sisters are pretty fond of there brothers too--

Madilyn Comes HOME--

We were so excited we could be there to greet Madilyn when she arrived home....I know we are NOT the perfect house guest and my family of 4 can be a BIG handful at times but it ment the world to us to be there to welcome her home!! I think everyone was ready to be home!! Paisley was in for some trickery for Aunt Kim and Uncle David making them think Madilyn was waking up when in reality it was my girl starving YET again!! Sorry for making you both JUMP!! It was so sweet as I mentioned before to capture Paisley wanting to love Madilyn so much-- I think Paisley knows kisses as she has gotten lots of them form day 1 and we havent stopped yet-- she is definately my kissable child!! Not that Callen doesnt get them but what boy really wants kisses-- so as I mentioned she wanted to love Madilyn all day and all night and years from now these will be priceless--

She realizes there is a sweet baby---see that face (watch out baby Madi lotso f love is headed your way)

She tries to get her attention with a little squeal of JOY

She makes sure it is ok and checks the entire situation out--

She finds the nearest person aka SUCKER-- who will get her a little closer--thanks again Aunt Kim for letting her love that sweet baby

She touches her ever so gently-- by now mommy is worried that she may attack the baby with a little too much LOVE

She just cant stand it any longer--so she decides it is time to give the little sweet a BIG ol' Paisley Sugar

Mommy reminds her to be easy-- while Aunt Kim helps her be gentle

And then is is SUgar time-- as we all know new baby sugars are the sweetest!!

Then Paisley decides she should LOVE the one who helped her succeed in her task of kissing baby Madilyn

And she shares a kiss with Aunt Kim-- telling her thank you

And during all of this-- Madilyn never awoke-- sweet baby

Girl Time--

For the 1st time in a LONG LONG TIME the girl got some good girl time-- as you can tell she doesnt have a problem showing off (I think in several years I will be eating those words). She likes to charm anyone and EVERYONE who will give her attention. And I know I am a bit bias but sometimes I could eat her up--- now if she continues these crazy nights we have been having I may eat her up and spit her out to the 1st taker-- JUST KIDDING!!

Anyway we got some girl time--- mommy was on the hunt for a dresser for brothers room NO luck but we did get out and about and I got some cute birthday ideas for table decor and I should have picked them up however I forsee a internet search in the near future for something similar. Although I better get a move on it because it is coming FAST!!

This weekend I decided Paisley loves babies anything that resembles a baby she was ALL over-- and Madi was NO exception-- thanks Aunt Kim for letting her love on that baby, years from now the moments will be priceless although mommy had to hold her hands back several times because I was a bit concerned about her loving a little tooo HARD or MUCH!!!

And for those of you wondering Madi is NOT the doll she is our new sweet cousin a post soon will follow on how much the girl loved Madi--

See kissing the baby--oh she loved the dolls funny the difference between boys and girls-- Callen would have never blinked twice at a doll yet give him a tractor or truck and it is a whole other story--

And at the end of the day she was tired out--- gotta love good girl time
