Trip to Southwest Harbor, Maine

Mom, Ashley, Thomas, me and Kinley made a trip up to my grandmother's house in Maine. Ashley and I left the 2 year olds at home with the dads! We had a nice time - the weather was great and the kids behaved! We visited Thunder Hole, Jordon Pond for lunch, hiked up a mountain (Kinley in tow on my back), Thomas played on the rocks and Kinley learned to crawl! Things have been going well. I am back to work and we are enjoying the summer. Kinley is getting big so fast and Hallie keeps us busy too! She has quite a personality and is becoming "daddy's girl" for sure! Reed is now gone to Alaska for a "guys" trip so we'll be entertaining ourselves this weekend! More soon!

Mikey's Graduation from Vanderbilt

We made a family trip for one more Vanderbilt graduation. We took both the girls and had a nice time. The weather held off so I was glad we didn't have graduation inside. The picture is one Reed took of Hallie in time-out - what for I can't remember. She likes to declare her independence often so I imagine it was probably for not listening to her daddy.

Happy Easter and Kinley's Baptism

Hallie had a blast sitting on the Easter bunny's lap, finding eggs and eating chocolate! We also had Kinley baptized over Easter weekend. Her godparents are my brother Michael and my sister Ashley.

Update

I have been enjoying my time home with my two babies as Hallie likes to remind me. Kinley is such a great baby compared to my colicky little Hallie. I had some photos taken of us for our Christmas card/birth announcement and I have posted here. I will be starting back to work in March. I can't believe how quickly time has flown!

Christmas 2009

Santa was good to Hallie this year! She got a bouncehouse from Santa that she and her cousins, Thomas and Lawson, jumped in all day long! I already received my Christmas present (Kinley) in November. Mom was able to force the annual Christmas card picture on us and here are a few pics from that day. I am working on having a photographer come to take pictures of my girls for my Christmas card/birth announcement which will of course will be late.
