Lori hangin’ with her Marys on Pride Day.

Pictured here are Ben and Ella in their Rude Boy and Rude Girl onesies. They were a gift from Brad and Michelle, long before the babies were would fit them. I remember receiving them and thinking…they’ll never be that big.

Well, they grow. Apparently, that is a fact of life that I must get used to.

Neither of them are particularly rude, but they look so cute in matching outfits.

Thanks guys!

In Ella’s beautiful, blue eyes I see a whole life - of laughter, love and just a little bit of mischief. What do you see?

At 5:12 pm today, Ben was one year old. What can I say. I just lived through the best year of my life. Nothing is better than watching your boy grow from a tiny almost 7 pound morsel into a sweetheart of a little fella. Nothing. We all love you, Ben. More than you’ll ever know.

At 5:14 today, Ella turned one year old. Look at those eyes. I could look at those blue marble eyes forever and never stop seeing her potential to be anything she wants. Ella, with you I have been blessed beyond my wildest dreams. We couldn’t love you more.
