Pictures

I just can't believe that my babies are 2+ years old! Where has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday Todd and I were struggling to get pregnant and now I have two beautiful children who continue to change and grow every single day. Nathan is in love with anything that has wheels including trucks, cars (police cars are his favorite!), fire engines and trains. He follows Todd around and wants to be right by his side and he loves to help him in the yard. He is so cuddly and is still very much attached to his binkie and blankie. Audrey is Miss Chatter Box and has to give us a recap of the day every night before bed. She loves to dress up and has been caught more than once in my make up bag applying eye shadow, powder and lotion. She is a little bit more independent and wants to do things on her own. Nathan wants to know where we are at all times and doesn't like it if we are out of sight. Both kids love music (they get that from Todd) and books (they get that from me). We often joke that if both kids are into sports, we will definitely be out of our comfort zone - so for now, it's dancing, music, costumes and funny singing voices. Oh, and endless trips to the park!

Over the last several months, we have been lucky enough to have friends offer to take photos of the kids as well as some family shots. We did not hesistate to take them ALL up on their offers! It's not easy to get decent pictures of both kids and forget Todd and I trying to get in a picture. One of us is holding the camera, while the other one is chasing down the kid that won't stay still. We were in desperate need of some current photos and now we have so many wonderful pictures that I'm having a hard time deciding which ones to frame! Thank you to all of our fabulously creative and talented friends!

Good friends and neighbors of ours (who happen to have 2 year old twins!) recently took pictures of Audrey and Nathan at Vasona Park in Los Gatos. These pictures were a suprise Father's Day gift for Todd. They turned out so beautiful! I love them all!! Thank you Crozier Family!

Fellow twin mom, Linda, is working on starting a photography business and asked if she could take photos of us at our house. Ummm, a free photo session?? Yes, please! She did a beautiful job and we felt so grateful to have some family photos - which are hard to come by these days. These are just a few of my favorites (way too many to post!) I love the bubble pictures!

Earlier in the year our friend Kurt took photos of us. We loved these pictures so much we had them blown up and framed and they are hanging on our wall in the living room. We couldn't help but put the kids' picture on mugs for both grandmas for Mother's Day. You can see more of Kurt's photos on his website.
