Portraits by Macie

She is such a ball of creative....She is wanting to sell them at the Dickens festival this year. I think she needs to make a canvas of our whole family

Lovin on the babies

I don't know why but I love doing this with my little...airplane, superman whatever you call it it makes me happy. Just spend time with these babies make me happy.

Mac with his dirty blankey...he loves this thing. Goes everywhere

Kambrie Jo snuggles

 and her crazy toes :)

The Move

It is quite the big deal to pack up and move....This has been the longest home we have lived in and even tho the neighbors were not the friendliest we loved where we were. It is hard to believe that we crammed as much as we did in that house. 4 kids, 3 adults...(no we are not polygamist My sister moved in with us last summer) The photography studio, our frame shop and all of Justin's collectible items...aka his hording. All in less then 1800 sf. , we were so packed ...no over flowing that the neighbors called the association on us monthly.

After a lot of freak out moments on my part we finally found something that would work for our businesses and our family. It is a big house that needs a lot of work. The owners are leasing it to us for cheap as compensation to fix things up. It has worked great...and I feel like we are seriously spoiled right now. We have a year to relax her, then its off to another place and hopefully a separate studio again.

Ill try to get pics of the new house . I don't think I have one single room put together totally :)

Look who is WALKING!

I love how he sits in the W positions. I think it is so cute. Getting up Looking to me for assurance

Watchin his feet to make sure they move

Takin a fall

Hospital Pics

The hospital rules are extremely strict when it is flu season. We had Mack and Kambrie Jo both during that time so the kids don't get to hold the babies till we are home from the hospital. I had I missed them so much and wanted them to at least get to see her when she was just minutes old ....even if it was just through the glass. The first time Mac saw her he was in love. He just laughed and smiled at her, he was so excited...it was torture not letting him hold her. I know they will be good little buddies... and his reaction made me cry. I have worried so much about him and about him feeling like he was being pushed aside with this new baby, he was excited about her...maybe he remembers her from heaven!ummmm I love the new baby smell. Having a baby is so emotional and perfect. I would have 10 million if i didn't have to be preggo and raise them. :)Kambrie and her daddy Her little profile

I love this one of her...it is like she is saying "Mommy they hurt my foot"
