Fall Festival

Happy Monday! Hope you all had a good weekend.
Now that its fall that means Fall Festivals! Thankfully I am fully recovered from my
C-Section so nothing was holding us back from getting the girls out to enjoy
the beautiful weather we are currently having.

Our first Fall Festival this year was a great one. Originally we were going somewhere else
but they didn't really have any kid activities for Morgan so when I found this one online
we all hopped in the car and changed locations. I'm so happy we found this one because
Morgan had a blast! 


Steve and I were looking at all the pictures last night and we were dying over this one because
look identical. They are both giving the 'eyebrow look".


Waiting in line to ride a pony! 


Well, she actually ended up riding the donkey! Steve and I thought she was going to freak out, have you seen her picture with the Easter Bunny and Santa? But she loved it! She said "wee" the whole time and when Steve took her of she said "Oh no!"


It's funny how different of a new mom I am the second time around. I would have never thought of having Morgan outside the house before she was six weeks old and here's Quinn 2 1/2 weeks old at a festival. I even nursed her in public, I would have never {ever} done that with Morgan!
But anyways...look how boo-tiful she is!! 






Morgan loved every activity they had but the slide was definitely her favorite. She went down at least 15 times and had the biggest smile on her face. 


Hope you all have a great week.

Quinn Marie :: Two Weeks

Well, two weeks down and two days of being home alone with these two girls. 
Morgan was amazing yesterday but today is a little different.

Quinn is changing all the time. The big difference is she is starting to stay awake longer. 
She is a great sleeper at night, the most she wakes up is twice but she will sleep for at least 4 hours at a time. She is so different than Morgan in so many ways. She is so calm and relaxed and Morgan never stopped moving and wanted to party all night. 

She's a great eater and her cheeks are starting to get big and chunky! :) 


Oh how things are different this time around for weekly pictures. haha...



A few favorites from this week...

How funny is Quinn in this picture and how cute and sweet is Morgan? Since Quinn was born Morgan is obsessed with giving kisses. 


Such a thinker like her daddy and big sister.


It's officially time for Halloween pajamas!! 


Flash back to Morgan...



Happy first day of Fall!!!

Quinn's Newborn Photos

Happy Friday!!
I'm so excited to share a few of my favorite pictures from Quinn's newborn photos that I took last weekend. I wish I could share them all but there are so many and I don't want to bore you with the same pose 20 times just with different headbands. 














I tried for at least an hour today to get a picture of the girls together with their Big Sister and Little Sister shirt on. I managed to get a few of them alone but the ones of them together are just crazy! Morgan wouldn't sit still at all so I will attempt that another day but I at least have this. 


Hope you all have a great weekend! We are heading back home and Monday will my first day alone with the girls. Wish me luck!!

Welcome To The World, Quinn Marie!!

We are so excited to announce the arrival of our baby girl, Quinn Marie, born September 9th at 8:22am, weighing in at 8 pounds and 20 inches long with beautiful dark brown hair. She is so incredibly sweet and cuddly. She loves to be held and I love it because I can't seem to let her go. 
My heart is bursting with love over our incredible two princesses. 


My c-section went really well. I think going through it once before it helped me calm my nerves. 
Don't get me wrong I was still freaking out but not like I was with Morgan. Our hospital stay was great and Morgan was able to come visit every day. It was really hard being away from her and not being apart of her nightly routine but she was in wonderful hands with Mimi and Pop-Pop. 

First picture as a family of four! 


Morgan has been an amazing big sister since the second she saw Quinn. When she sees her she points at her and calls her baby. She loves to hold her and kisses her all day long. When Quinn is crying Morgan will run up to her and say 'Oh No!' and give her her pacifier. It's seriously the sweetest seeing Morgan be a big sister. 


I can't thank my parents enough for taking care of Morgan!! I don't know what we do without them.  



Are they not the cutest??
They were watching the helicopter land on the roof next to us. 


We are now home and all recovering from a busy week. Thank you all for your sweet comments and well wishes on Instagram and Facebook!
More pictures are coming this week (or today) of Quinn's newborn photos that I took yesterday.

Hope you all have a great day!
