Oregon Ducks!







Gabe loves the ducks, it is his team all the way. He grow up in just about the same town as the college and so it is a family thing too. Gabes sister Courtney got these outfits for the girls. I think they look pretty cute! Thanks Aunt Courtney:)

GO DUCKS!!!

Adeleah...

About a week ago we put Adeleah to bed and were still down watching tv. We knew she had been out of bed and had gotten after her but we hadn't heard anything out of her and so we thought she went to bed. Well when I went to put Caylee down I all but walked on Adeleah.

Man is two not my favorite age! But at times I love the things she does and it just makes us laugh. Adeleah loves to dance, loves music, reading/being read to and (right now anyway) scooby doo. She has a mind of her own and will let you know it. She seems to like to push us to our limits on just about everything. Thankfully she can still be our sweet little girl giving lots of hugs and kisses. She loves her little sister and they are best friends. And I am still amazed at how much I love her even when she is being crazy and driving me crazy. I love you Adeleah and am so thankful to be your mom everyday!





Caylee 8 Months...







I can't believe my baby is going to be a year in just a few months! How did she get to be 8 months already. She is doing so good and I just can't get over how much I love my girls. Caylee is so great and has the best smile in the world, just like her daddy. Oh and she looks so much like Gabe, well to me she does. Caylee now has 6 teeth, she can walk holding on the things, stand alone, and (not happy about this one) can climb the stairs. If we don't put the gate up she will be up them in no time. She loves to eat and doesn't really want baby food but I still make her eat it. With all the food she eats you would think she would be bigger, she is a nice small little girl. Oh and she is still very much a mommas girl. Shes so bad that she doesn't even want daddy to feed her dinner and will start crying half way through her food and then I have to finish feeding her. But other then that she is a great baby and we are so thankful to have Caylee in our family!

Our New Ride







Someday when the girls are out of car seats I know this is how they are going to want to ride all the time.



So we finally got a 2nd car! Our plan was to just wait until we moved again back mainland but because of Gabes new calling we knew it was needed. We first were looking at a midsize suv but they just don't have a lot of room when all the seats were up and we didn't want to get a big suv. The reason we didn't go with something small like a car was because we didn't want to have to get a different one in a few years when we have another baby and lose money in doing it. So we went with something that will last our family for years to come. Now I have never liked vans but I must say I love my new Sienna! It has lots of room for everything and is so easy to put the girls in and out. It drives really well and is so nice inside. But best of all it works for our family now and for years to come:) Thanks Gabe for getting me to drive a van and thinking outside of suvs. I love you honey, thanks for all your hard work:)
