Gracie Mae is 2! + Christmas Mini's

T W O Y E A R S O L D 

Happy Birthday to my darling daughter! You do not know how special you are - but I hope I tell you enough. I cannot explain what you mean to us. You are so smart and silly and special. You have been the biggest blessing to our family and I'm so grateful you are ours 🖤 I told you the first day I met you and I mean every word "Momma loves Gracie Mae". 📷: @kortneyraephotography

 And enjoy these adorable photos from a Christmas Mini we did with Kort. She was bouncing all over the place yet Kort still managed to capture these cute little shots!

(These last few are just some I snapped on my phone that I wanted to document)

Big Announcement!!

SURPRISE!! 

Bumpin with my besties 🖤🖤🖤 This has been one of the hardest secrets to keep! It has been the best thing ever to experience pregnancies right alongside two of the people I'm the closest to. Oh, and of course we couldn't leave the daddies out! I am due January 18th, Shay is due May 24th and Whit is due June 16th! I cannot wait to raise these precious souls to be hopefully as close as I have been with my sisters growing up!

Maternity Session - Baby Girl #2

35 weeks and anxiously awaiting little sister's arrival! All of those first-time momma jitters are flooding back to me, but after celebrating Grace's second birthday last week I am reminded that we have successfully raised a kind little human once and we can do it again 💗 .

Thank you again to my very talented cousin and photographer Kortney @kortneyraephotography  We will cherish these photos for years to come! I especially love that I was able to get Ethan in a few since last time around he was in Georgia at a training with the military. These pictures just get me so excited for our new baby girl to get here!

Austin, Texas

We finally did it! We flew out to Texas to visit some of our best friends, Dillon and Ashtin Barclay and sweet little Ellie Belly! We have been wanting to visit them since they moved out there a couple of years ago and decided this was a perfect time. A babymoon and one more trip before grace turned 2 and we'd have to pay for her flight. It was a perfect weekend with just the right amount of site seeing and relaxing catching up with our dear friends! We ate lots of yummy BBQ and toured some of downtown Austin. I was able to be there for Ashtin's baby shower and Ethan and Dillon got to attend a Texas Longhorns NFL game. Grace and Ellie became little best friends and had a blast together. It's so fun to see your daughter and your best friend's daughter become little best friends! Fun fact, they are only about a month apart. Grace born in December and Ellie born in January. And get this, we are now both due with two more girls due in December ( For Ashtin's baby) and January (for mine). Two new little girls to become best friends as well!
