Family pictures





We had these taken in February since our Christmas pictures did not turn out very well. These were a lot better.


I only bought one pose but plan to buy the other three soon.

Vivian's 2nd birthday party

These are some pictures from a birthday party we went to today. Little Vivian is celebrating her second birthday - she was sooo cute!
















Today we went to a birthday party for our friends' little girl Vivian. I (Rachel) have known Greg and Fonda since highschool. Nathanael had such fun playing with their son Isaiah and little girl Vivian as well as their cousin Daphne who's mother I am also good friends with since high school.

Close call...



Thanking God this morning. I know these little things happen all the time - you know what I mean if you have little ones. Random things that usually turn out OK but always leave you thankful realizing "it could have ended differently". Arielle found a piece of paper (probably something her brother gave her) and chewed on it and was gagging on it. I was thinking of what to do if she couldn't get it out on her own and trying to remain calm but I have to admit my heart was racing. I grabbed the wet paper out of her mouth and she stopped gagging and was breathing just fine. Thank God for giving my daughter good gag reflexes! I am glad I realized she was gagging so I could get the paper out of her mouth. After all that "drama" she was happy to nurse and go down for her 11 AM nap - in her crib for the first time.
