My Little Sunshines

Its been the gloomiest summer I have ever experienced,

lots of cloudy, chilly days down here at the beach. We feel a little cheated out of a summer, but I have my own little doses of sunshine...

Little Miss

Little man

Baby girl is growing so fast, almost 9 weeks and smiling, cooing and being her usual dreamy self.

I love having my little girl..

We have managed to squeeze in our usual summer

activities when the weather is nice.

Owen got a beach day with Gramps...

And we have had lots of picnic dinners on the bluff (even if its freezing).

We headed inland for sunshine and Owen got a

sprinkler fight at Gramps house.

Em threw a birthday party for Mickey at the end of July...

It was quite an eventful evening with friends, bbq, and boxing matches...

...and my sister Jessica going into labor!

Early the next morning, baby Stella arrived tiny and precious...

Love you little Stella.

Little Miss 6 weeks

I finally got around to my first photo shoot with Peyton...

I had about 3 minutes and a combination of baby girl crying, big brother weaseling his way into pictures and Mark trying get us all out the door.

Peyton is 6 weeks, 9 lbs. 7oz. and such a love. She smiles these days and I just love this baby girl so so much. Here she is in one of the first dresses she fits into (and Im trying out the bow thing.. so different than boys.)

Peytee with her doll...

A little big brother love..

(don't be fooled, I didnt add the pictures of him trying to feed her pretzels or literally smothering her with his hug.)

Here is what most of the other pictures looked like!
