winnie...

this girl loves her "winnie"... a treat from grammie at her first trip to disneyland. he stays in her bed, but occasionally, he makes his way into our world :) we can't resist when the mention of his name gets this much excitement! simply precious...

thanksgiving day... the perfect fall day!

lover her lil' scrunchie face! .......................... just swingin with my dad...

does the teeter totter ever get old??? nope! not for grammie and granddad!

there's something uniquely fun about being a sister... you just can't explain it AND you have spontaneous photo shoots like this and don't even think twice about it! ha! LOVE it!

atlantic station...

the goal was to keep me on my feet and movin.... trying to get miss hollis (who was predicted to come early... alas decided she was choosing her day of arrival) to come for her aunts, cousins, grandad, and grammie... a tour day at the bodies exhibit... and no hollis.....

the world of a fish...

you never realize how teeny tiny your little ones are until you catch a photo like these... our little miss phoebe and her granddad :)

simply awed by the jellyfish!

does she realize she's about to be eaten by a shark???

a sea-dragon??? what a magnificent creature!

just a dot in a world of wonder :)

showing her cousin miss maybeline what's out there...

"and this is how it is maybeline..."

the only photo i caught of my sister at the aquarium with us... a hair shot :)

can you find miss phoebe???

waiting for hollis to come! a day at the park!

 my sister lisa came for hollis's arrival..... she never showed until AFTER her guests left.  in the mean time, we had a good time! 

poor miss maybeline was fighting a cold and double ear ache we had no idea about... poor thing did her best to enjoy the fresh air too :)

37 weeks pregnant...

11.11.11 and she decided this wasn't going to be her birthday... which i'm told by the nurses ended up being a VERY busy delivery day! good choice miss hollis... we don't like crowds :)

miss hollis is a cookin!
