The loves of my life

I am so fortunate, blessed, and lucky for the family that we have created. I couldn't be more happy in my life right now. I have a partner whose love and dedication shines through everyday to his girls (all of us:). I have an almost two year old who radiates sunshine, curiosity, purity, and love. I have a 7 week old who brings joy to my heart everyday when I hear her squeals and watch her sleep. Here are the loves of my life...

"SNNaackk"

When Harper wants a snack she is clearly referring to fruit snacks and nothing else. This does not mean she wants crackers, cheese, ice cream, etc. When she wants "Snnnaacckk" she means what her idea of a snack is, which is always fruit snacks. She knows where they are and will point to them and say "snack" repeatedly while you are offering her other snack items. I guess a girl knows what she wants and by golly she is going to be persistent until she gets it. (or until we have a melt down when she realizes that we will not let her eat more than one package during snack time:)
Here is a picture of her eating her snack...

Our growing lil peanut...

Wow how things change is such a short amount of time. Livia is growing so fast. She is becoming more aware of her surroundings; smiling and cooing. It's crazy how she looks a lot like Harper did when she was a baby. Liv has become a better sleeper these days with longer stretches at night making for better rested parents. She still spits up often but she is not unhappy like she was the first few weeks. (it seemed as though her tummy was having a hard time adjusting) Lateaf says Harper was the same way. It's crazy how we forget those things and are still worried that "she is lactose intolerant" or something:) I don't think the worrying ever goes away. Here are some shots of our growing little peanut Liv....

Lucky

We are so lucky to have this beautiful woman in our lives..

Aunt Shannon is a giver, a protector, a listener, an advisor, and so much more. She has always been someone that I look up to as my older sister and now my daughters are blessed to have her in their lives. She is a fantastic aunt and I cherish each moment spent with her! I love you to the moon and back sister moon!
