this is isie.

she's my niece's sweet 7 yr. old.

 

she's been such a blessing

to our whole family. she is a 

soft spoken, petite little honey

and she's beautiful isn't she? 

 

i've been wishing we could do a photo shoot

for way too long as she is growing up

way too fast.

 

a couple weeks ago we got our chance- (i think she

was as excited as i was) so

these are for you little isabelle lydia!

 

 

love you little peanut girl~

 

 

 

*it is with great joy that our family welcomed another

little pumpkin this morning as well.

 

barrett nyland sommers

i cannot wait to meet you and comb

your thick gorgeous black hair!

 

congratulations to my niece ashley and her

hubbie matt! this little boy is very lucky to

have been born to the two of you.

p.s.  (your pregnancy was the longest one EVER for me
ash. next time please don't tell me till you're at
least 2 weeks pregnant k.?  lol   i've just
been sooo excited to have a baby in the fam again!)

 

my little brother was so darned cute when

he called to tell me about his first grandchild.

 

i said "who do you think he looks like?"

and he replied in a soft voice,

"you know, I really think he looks like me.

he has a head of thick black hair and

dark skin".

 

it made me cry.

tears of happiness, of course.

 

* my three kiddos are joining their papa

up north for the big deer hunt this weekend.

good luck and be safe dear ones!!!
