Maternity Photos

Back at the beginning of April, Jenny did a quick maternity photo shoot and here are some of the pics I have so far! We were quick and despite some drizzle we got what we needed and Jenny did amazing with her prego tummy too. Thanks so much Jenny!
I absolutely love this one of Vienna, she was always so cute with giving my tummy loves and asking about "baby Lincoln"
This is the classic prego pose and it turned out really well. I love that I have pretty much the exact same one with Vienna.

This one is another one I want to do with all of my pregnancies, but with different shoes each time. It turned our perfect! I can't wait to put it up on my wall!
We have some of the whole family and can't wait to see how they turned out :)

The Daily Grind

First of all I have to say...Look at me with my Patriotic background, now that I am officially American and stuff! Too bad my cousin can't make a Canadian background for Canada day on July 1 then I could change it to this one after that for July 4th.
This is Vienna's potty chart! It is completely full and yes she is potty trained!!! Yeah! It is still a bit stressful and outings make me nervous, but she sure is doing a great job!
Playing at the Splash park will be often this summer
more splash playing
Vienna loving to be as close as possible to her baby brother. Literally as close as possible...
Vienna and one of her best friends Evie at the park. They have so much fun together!
Look at this little boy looking up at his sister. So sweet!
Aww!!!

Vienna with another one of her best friends, Milo!!!
Mike playing basball with his interfaith league. I know you can't tell but his Jersey has a picture of Angel Moroni with a baseball bat and they are called the "Latter Day Sluggers"
This is what Vienna and Evie spend the whole game doing...playing and dumping the dirt by the bench on each other. Oh its so gross to wash her hair afterward. At least they are having fun!
Lincoln looking so peaceful at nap time!
Life has been fun with 2. I am so glad I have 12 weeks off of work. We have been spending lots of time outdoors enjoying the weather. Up next...Picking up Lanae in Niagara Falls and having her visit for a while. Canada Day, Fourth of July and much much more!!!

Lincoln's Blessing Day

Our little Lincoln was blessed on May 20th (3 weeks old, instead of 11 days old like Vienna)
It was a very special blessing given to a very special little boy. His father is such a great example of an honorable priesthood holder and was able to be inspired. Lincoln has lots of important things to accomplish in his life, we are so grateful to call him ours.
 The 2 studly men in my life (love the pose Mikey)
 What a cute little boy in a cute little outfit on a comfy crocheted blanket made just for you (Thanks Auntie Cindy)
 Vienna seriously can't get enough of her little brother. It is literally non-stop all day long, every day. I really thought that would change, but he is almost 6 weeks old now and it is still the exact same. So precious!
 Our family of 4, that is so weird to say...
Our kiddos with their Grandma and Grandpa!  PS- thank you for the adorable blessing outfit, what a stud with that vest and bowtie.

The Davis side visit...




We had such a great visit with Mike's parents as well. We did some similar trips with both families, but on Peg and Alan's visit Cedar Point was open so we did that and we also went to Amish country which is something Mike and I haven't had the chance to do yet. (Peg has way more pics but here are a few)
Lincoln hanging out with his Grandpa!
In the gazebo in Chagrin Falls on our way to get Jenni's Icecream and play in the water!
Down by the falls...Mike was up with Lincoln this time.
Grandpa put my feet in the cold water and I LOVED it!!! I kept saying, "Again" over and over
swinging with Grandpa at the park, after our intense game of Bocce ball, which we played quite a bit and have no idea why we didn't do that with the McAllister side more??? So much fun!!! I don't remember who won overall but it was some pretty good competition.
Daddy with the kiddo's in the little play house in the chocolate factory in Amish county.

We had such a nice visit and got very spoiled (as we always do) when Grandma and Grandpa visit. We got to eat out more than we ever do, which is always nice.
Thanks so much for the great visit!
