Christmas Family Photos

It was so incredibly special to have our very first family photo shoot for Christmas and something I always dreamed of (if you know me well you know I am obsessed with pictures so any excuse for a photo shoot and I am in). So here are the rest of my favorites from our Christmas Family pictures by our friend and wonderful photographer Tonya Mae Photography

Truly Blessed

It is so incredible to look at these pictures above and see how truly blessed we are. It's so hard to believe that two Christmas's ago we were having our first miscarriage. Then last year at Christmas we were pregnant with twins in our first trimester but still scared/nervous as can be. Now this Christmas we have these two precious little girls to love, cherish, and spoil. It may not always happen according to our plans, but it always happens according to HIS plans. God is so good and we are truly thankful for our many blessings!





Wishing you all a blessed and Merry Christmas!

What's been going on

Here is a recap of life lately for us in pictures and in no particular order...

We celebrated our very first Thanksgiving together as a family of four and what a great day it was. We have so much to be thankful for and praise God for especially this year.

It was a day full of family, fellowship, great food, full belly's, cute kids, a family softball game, football, relaxing, and most importantly giving thanks! 

We had our first official playdate with the sweetest baby and friend in the world, and what a precious time it was! I could go on forever about how much I love this girl and her family, but lets just say I have been dying to see them. Plus I now know why all of you love playdates so much...the babies have fun and are completely worn out afterwards and the moms get real adult social time! I can't wait to be brave enough for the next playdate!

The girls turned 5 months old (too bad they are almost 6 months in like 12 days and that is how far behind I am)!!! The girls are growing, changing, and learning daily. Both are trying to crawl although they still cannot sit on their own 100%. They are still tiny little peanuts and in 0-3 months clothes, but getting closer to moving up very soon.

We enjoyed the annual Turner Bake Day. Always a great time of family, decorating, and yummy food and the girls just added to the day and made it that much more special this year!

Look at all those cookies!!!

The girls and Carl attended their first Apex Christmas parade to see the best Santa Clause in the world ;)

As you can see from this pathetic pouty face Makayla was not a fan of the loud noises, but did enjoy the lights.

Makenzie sat with our Aunt T and loved it and was even waving :)

Makenzie hung her first ornaments

Makayla hung her first ornaments as well

We took a road trip to Wilmington to spend time with our best friends, celebrate a birthday at a fun (much needed) girls night out fondue dinner, and to celebrate a baby shower for the newest addition on his way Cayden who we cannot wait to meet!

So that is some of what's been going on in our lives lately. Hope that everyone is enjoying the holiday season and doing well!

**Please keep my mom in your thoughts and prayers as she just had a partial knee replacement surgery this week and is on the road to recovery...thank you friends!!!

MIA

I know I have not been blogging lately and have been a bit MIA, but I assure you we are here and ok. The truth is I don't have time to go into detail, but I am just Exhausted and even a bit overwhelmed and stressed. When I am not feeding or holding/consoling one baby than I am feeding or holding the other. Sleep is non-existent for me and if when I do have a free few moments to myself there is other things that take priority. On one hand I am disappointed that I don't have more time to blog because a huge part of doing a blog for me is documenting the memories...this has been my online scrapbook that I look forward to sharing with the girls one day, but at the same time me giving all of my attention to the girls is way more important than any online scrapbook of memories. The good news for me is that I take a bazillion pictures and videos so I will always have those to share the memories and look back on.  

So for now I will be blogging occasionally and randomly, but not stressing if I cannot. In the meantime I will try and at least share some pictures and videos so you can continue to see our cuties and know that we are ok. 

And so it begins...

It's official Makayla Faith through her first little temper tantrum throwing her paci and all. If she is already doing this at 5 months old I can only imagine what is to come. Love you my sassy little girl!

Who me?!
