A Little Girl's First Ashes

The Babies are waking up, so this is going to be QUICK!

Here are a few shots we took as Aunt Tina was leaving:

And here are a few shots from Ash Wednesday!

Love you all,

Playing in the Snow with Aunt Tina

We were lucky enough to have Aunt Tina with us for a long weekend.  The kids loved having their Auntie here to play with and to read them stories.

We also had a big storm...which just turned into some fun in the snow!

Diapers Only Photo Shoot

I'm sorry--I know it has been a long time since I posted here...but to make it up to you all I have some really good shots to share today.

Billy is gone again for work--this time just for a few days to Iowa.  His sister is coming in on Friday, so we are home today getting ready.  I gave the kids a bath this morning and then we did a diapers only photo shoot on mommy and daddy's bed.

Saying hi to Jesus!

Dreamy, right.  Awwww, life is good!

We love you all,

Nancy, Gus and Bernadette

Brother/Sister Photo Shoot

So it is cold here, very cold.  Since we don't have any pressing engagements, that means that I am really a stay-at-home mom.  Therefore, to pass the time at home we are doing all sorts of things, like brother-sister photo shoots!  Here are some shots I took yesterday and this morning.

The chubby little girl is starting to find her hand--we are hoping she finds her thumb soon and becomes a thumb sucker, since she refuses to take a nuk!

I made her this little hair piece this morning.  The little blue bow in her hair yesterday lasted for one a few minutes, since her hair is still very short and very thin.

I hope you are all staying warm!  Today I am very thankful that I am able to stay home, and that we have a nice warm house.
Love you all,
Nancy, Gus and Bernadette

2 months old!

Bernadette turned 2 months on Sunday, so we took some family pictures.  Despite a full-scale melt down from Gus, we got some good shots.

Check out that smile!

And here is what the kids have been doing while I'm on the computer--They're playing together!

We love you all!

Christmas Through Baptism

Sorry for the delay...but we have been BUSY!  Happy New Year to everyone.  Thankfully we are having a quiet day at home.  Right now everyone is napping, including Bill, so I decided to take advantage of the quiet and get some pictures onto the blog!  Enjoy!
