Life Milestones Captured

It's amazing how one person has captured the biggest moments in my life. I can't exactly put my finger on what it is about her pictures, but I will say that Jodi takes the best pictures I've ever seen!

Like I said, Jodi has captured all our family milestones and I can't wait to see what's next! She was amazing with my strong-willed momma's girl at our most recent session. K was a bit shy at first so Jodi would snap a picture and show K the screen and K thought that was the coolest thing ever! By the end of the session Jodi even got a hug, which of course is K's stamp of approval :)

I'm obsessed with her pictures, so if you're looking for another blog to follow... I'd highly recommend www.jodischlosserblog.com!!!

Man we've been busy!

I cannot believe I haven't posted in like a month! Shame on me! I often think about posting, only to find that I have a million other things that I should be doing but tonight I'm taking a break!

So for the month of July we haven't had a single free weekend so here's a recap:
1st weekend - 4th of July - The Friday before the 4th we went out and bought Pat a car. His poor mustang has no a/c and we were sick of only having one vehicle to tote Kimber around in. Other than that we had dinner at my Aunt's house, no biggie. We just enjoyed our time off and 3 day weekend.

Pat's new car... 08 Mercury Mariner

2nd weekend - MY BIG BROTHER GOT MARRIED!!!! I was pretty nervous to see my dad's side of the family but luckily they didn't really talk to me... talk about dodging a bullet :)

Cutest flower girl EVER!!!

My new SISTER IN LAW!

3rd weekend - Trip to the lake!!! - A friend of mine at work invited us to her MIL's condo at the lake and I was all to excited to have a mini vacation and just get away from STL to do nothing! We drove down Friday night and sometime in the middle of the night the a/c went out! By the time the guy came to fix it Saturday morning it was almost 90 degrees in there so we decided it was time to go for a swim. After that we went out to dinner and then my friend and I went shopping at the outlet mall. They have a son that's 2 months younger than Kimber and we've already decided they are going to prom together :) We're talking about dressing up as the Flintstones for Halloween!

The 2 cutest kids ever made!

4th weekend - We had a 1st birthday party to attend. Mommy fail because I didn't take any pictures :(

5th weekend - This coming weekend Jon will be in town!!! I can't wait to see him, and Kimber has told me several times that she misses her Uncle Jon!

Sooo that's where I've been. On top of trying to figure out what I want to do career wise, planning a first birthday party (in less than 2 months!!!), figuring out our next house renovation, and all the things that mother-hood entails! Whew, it makes me tired just thinking about it!

my little flower girl

Miss Kimber is going to be a flower girl in my brother's wedding in July. I found this super cute tutu dress on Ebay but the sizing was weird... I realized the lady was in Australia so I messaged her to let me know what size I would need to order for a 9-12 month old. (Kimber will be 9 1/2 months at the wedding), the lady replied and I placed my order.

Her dress showed up yesterday:

In case you can't tell, it barely fit's my (not even) 7 month old!!! I'm in big trouble! 

The good news is that if I can find the white netting part somewhere I can just cut and add more and then sew tulle on because she's going to have an apple green sash on so it will cover all the horrible sewing I'm going to have to do. I'm super bummed but there's not much I can do. I might order another one, just depends on if I have another $80 (AU bucks) to spare in the next couple months.

Only one day late...

Happy anniversary baby! It's been an amazing two years and I hope for many more to come!

You and mini are my whole world and I'm so lucky to have you both in my life. I can't wait to see what the future has in store for our amazing little family!
