More Pictures of the Twins

I wasn't very happy with the pictures of Drew in the twins' first photo shoot so I took more yesterday during the big kids' nap time. It was so quiet and peaceful so I was able to take my time and get some great shots! Drew and Ben are now 2 weeks old. Both are healthy and are gaining weight. Drew is now 7.2 and Ben is 5.11. Time flies and we sure are having fun with our 2 sweet little bundles!

Introducing the Bailey Twins!

The twins are finally here! Drew Richards and Benjamin Wallace Bailey were born Wednesday, November 11, 11 minutes apart. Drew entered the world at 10:59am and Ben arrived at 11:10am. Notice all the 11's! We got a kick out of that! I had an amazing delivery and the boys were healthy. We were able to go home 2 days later. The transition has been smooth and everyone is adjusting well.

With the help of my best friend (and 3 of her little elves) I recently took pictures of the twins. I can't believe they are almost 2 weeks old. These past two weeks have been a blur, but I have so much to be thankful for. They are healthy and well loved. The kids, even my youngest now, love them so much. I am one blessed woman!


Mr. Ben: Little body, loud voice!


Gentle Drew: Must have his little brother by his side to be happy.

Cuddly little teddy bears.



Sweet peas.

Encouragement

I love this! I'm thinking about printing it out and hanging it somewhere in my house. I need this as a daily reminder that God is always with me and all I'll ever need.

Another fun shoot from the Fall Promotion

Here's Mr. C again at 6 months. He's always so much fun because he poses so well. He kept me laughing as he flipped, turned and smiled to give me different angels to shoot. Thanks Mom and Dad! You have a precious little guy!

The Lollipop Kids

I had lots of fun taking pictures of my kids this weekend and editing them. It's been nice having time to get some of them since I'm not working right now. Anyway, the kids and I went to Cracker Barrel on Saturday and I treated the kids to 1 big lollipop each (Oh yes...I had pictures in mind!). After nap time we went out back and I shot away as they enjoyed their sweet treat. Jonathan wasn't really into it because he just wanted to sit in my lap.

Photo Art

I was going to buy pictures of letters of the boys' names for $5 each online, but felt like I should save the money and do it myself. At 36+ weeks pregnant with twins, I can't get out and go on a letter hunt right now, so I had the idea to get some blocks we had and let the kids be apart of it. I like the sepia better than the black and white for what I need. I'm very, very happy with how it turned out!
