Best friends

Well its finally happened. Nyah and Ezra are the best of buds, and I just think its the cutest thing in the world. Ever since Ezra turned about 9 months they have played together all the time. Ezra thinks Nyah is his second mommy, and Nyah loves to think she can control him. :) Honestly she is so good with him, always hugging and kissing him, sharing her toys for the most part, and getting so excited to get him from his naps. This morning they played together for like an hour and nobody fussed at me....I was in complete shock and actually broke up the independent play because I missed them!


I've decided I'm going to start matching the kiddos for church - I figure if I don't have 2 girls and can't buy matching dresses, why not buy matching colors at the very least?


Happy New Year in Georgia

Nyah learns how to use a gun; her second cousins graciously educated her in all things "boy". :)

I love this pic!




Christmas at our place
















Apparently Nyah makes it snow in Houston

Nyah and her best bud, Lilly. I was in heaven getting to play in the snow like a little toddler. We'll see what next year brings....


Drew gets to come home for lunch most days - we are soo incredibly blessed.

Our blended Thanksgiving
















Glamour shots

These are Drew's shots he so graciously took for me after our very sad (yes, there were frowns) Christmas pics. I don't know what I was thinking trying to get both the kiddos to smile in the same shot, but I ended up paying an arm & a leg for a picture of both my kids semi-frowning. That's when I decided we were going to start taking our own pics from home and saving our $ for better things. I think these pics came out amazing & truly captured those natural poses that only mommy and daddy get to see on a daily basis.

Our little girl turns 2!

Wow I can't believe Nyah is already 2. She is looking so much like a little girl and less like a baby. Since Drew had to go out of town for a week, we celebrated Nyah's bday at both her grandparents' houses (her fave people in the world - Pita & Popo and Me-ma & Paw Paw).
Somehow my mom's name (Abuelita) got mixed up with the "arepitas" she always makes her...so Nyah associated the two and named her "Pita". She also just started calling Grandma (Smith) "Me-ma", which is really funny since none of us really like the term. Lisa doesn't mind though...we are just going to keep referring to her as grandma & hope she changes it on her own.

We went to this awesome playground at Tombass park. My mom has a blast drumming and entertaining Ezra, and I had fun re-living my childhood with Nyah.

This is one of the many b-day cakes she has eated in November. I think we have sang happy bday about 6 times. Two Nyah bdays, Philip, Lisa, Madison, and a Happy Bday Jesus bday at our church. Nyah seriously thinks there is a bday twice a week now.
