Merry Christmas














We enjoyed our first Christmas at home. Abigail and Ava decorated cookies, put on their new pajamas and loved every minute of it.

Happy Halloween - Toddler Style





Abigail and Ava loved Halloween this year in Pittsburgh. Abigail loved dressing up like Sleeping Beauty and Ava was mostly interested in the candy. She didn't let her bucket out of her sight!

Abby Sings


Abigail loves to sing daddy to sleep. If only his legs would fit in the tent.

Close Encounters


When we were driving along the Firehole River in Yellowstone there were Elk feeding along the side of the road. We could have jumped out and caught one but we didn't.

Trip to Utah





We had a great time visiting family in Utah this last week. We made it out to Yellowstone and saw so many animals! Abigail and Ava also had so much fun playing with their cousins!

Beach Time


Abigail and Ava had so much fun at the beach this year. We went to Topsail, NC with family for a week. The girls love to dig in the sand, play in the waves and the little pool we had out there for them. It was a real tough week with picnics on the beach, long naps, and lots of cousins!

Ava Swinging


Ava loves to swing with Papa in South Carolina. We spent Memorial Day hanging out with family in Columbia and playing around the pool. We found out Abigail is allergic to fire ant bites. She got bit a few times and her eyes were swollen and she was covered in hives. She is a sweet girl and was relatively positive throughout as long as she could cling to Mommy or Nana.

We have had a great Holiday Season. Abigail and Ava have really enjoyed Christmas and all of their new found joys. Rachael and I celebrated the new year by painting our kitchen and getting some things done around the house.
