Our proofs are here!

Today we got back out proofs from Julie! She did an amazing job as usual but I almost think that these are the best ones to date. She always captures Tristan and Isabelle just perfectly. Here is a slideshow that she put together of her favorite ones.

What a great weekend.

This weekend was very busy but great. Saturday Sean did some work over at the new house and then we headed to our friends Rick and Amy for a little get together. We do these monthly with some of our friends and it is always so much fun. This time the kids played so nice together. Not a lot of hitting, crying or screaming. Thank you Rick and Amy for hosting this month!
On Sunday we had our family pictures taken at Forest Park by our favorite photographer Julie. (www.elizabethannphotography.com) She has been taking our pictures since Tristan was 2 months old. We visit her twice a year and she never fails us. She also took the Frye family picture yesterday so I am excited to see how that turned out. After pictures the Trammel family (except for Brad he was hunting) came up for a visit and the Fryes came over after their picture session. All of the kids got to play which was really exciting because they haven't all been together in months. Tristan loved that everyone came to his house. He is used to all of us being at Grandma's house. Here are a few pictures from our weekend. As soon as Julie has the slideshow up I will post the link for all to see!! Have a great week!

Day at Eckerts Farm!

This Sunday we took Tristan and Isabelle to Eckerts farm with our friends Dave, Crystal and Kaelynn. This is our second annual trip and we had a blast. Tristan and Kaelynn rode the pony's, went down a very large slide, went on little airplane rides, fed goats etc etc etc. We then went over and listened to the band, ate popcorn and funnel cakes and just enjoyed the day. The kids were exhausted but had a blast.

Update on the house

Pictures from the weekend. Roof is on now along with all windows and doors. Heating/Cooling, Plumbing and Eletric are starting today. We should also have a garage floor today. The plan is to start next Monday.

Our little flower!

I just wanted to share a few pics of Isabelle in her first Halloween costume. She is going to be our little flower. I think that we are going to have to pull our hair back so we can get the full effect of the flower.

6 months old!

Our little Isabelle is 6 months old today! OMG where does the time go. She is getting to be so big I just can't get over it. Here is what we know about our little princess peanut so far!

1. She is still taking a bottle about every 4 hours.

2. She has started eating veggies, fruits, oatmeals and some stage 2 foods.

3. She thinks that her big brother Tristan is hilarious....unless she is tired then she just finds him annoying and overwhelming.

4. She loves her Daddy. Wherever Sean is she will have her eyes fixed on him.

5. She will be blessed and cursed with curly hair. We now can truly see the formation of curls. (PS she still loves her bows)

Update on the house!

When I asked Sean if he wanted to add his comments to this section he was to involved in the cubs game....so I guess I will update on the house. As you can see it is moving right a long! We are very excited and can't wait to move in! Please please pray that the rain holds out!

So far this weekend!

It has been a very low key weekend but we have taken some good pictures so I wanted to share. Tristan took his first tools class at home depot. They made a firetruck and he was so excited when he got home to tell me that he hammered and put stickers on the truck. Isabelle and I have just been lounging around the house, cleaning, doing laundry and starting to pack. 6 weeks from today we will be moving out of our first home and I think that the time is going to go really fast. It is not certain if we will have a place to go when it is time to move out but everyone is working around the clock to try and get this house complete so please say a prayer that the rain holds off for another week!!! I hope everyone is having a good weekend!
