7 month pictures!

Here they are in all their glory!!

7 months old and Dedication!!

Our girls turned 7 months yesterday and
we had a dedication at church this morning
for them!  They were dressed in their fancies!

It was exhausting standing up on that stage.
They passed out right after the service!

Look at my pretty dress everyone!

These little ladies are our pride and joy

Hard to imagine life without them.

Here is the prayer we wrote for our little girls:

God,
We lift up our two beautiful girls to You and recognize
that You are the only reason we are so blessed to have them.
Protect and guide them as they journey through life, and open
their hearts to You.  Let them realize the value in living in truth.
Our desire is that Evelyn and Annabelle be women of character,
that they treat others with kindness and respect and most
importantly, that they love You.  Help us to guide them in these
things, that we might be an example to our daughters.  Give
us wisdom and patience to show this same character that we
desire for them.  We recognize that we can't do this without You.
We take this opportunity to acknowledge Your presence in their
lives.  We ask these things in Jesus' name.

Updated Stats

When I did their 6 month post, the girls

hadn't had their appointment yet, so here are

their updated stats.

Our little Evelyn, who has been ahead of her sister
on weight since right after she was born, just got passed
up.  She weighs 16 lbs and is 26" long.
She's 48% on weight and 51% on height

I never thought I'd say it, but this little preemie
is SO CHUBBY!!!!  Annabelle weighs 16.5 lbs and
is 25 " long.  She is 20% on height and 56% on weight!
She's what some might call short and fat!

Both ladies are very very healthy and the doctor
was thrilled that they were still being breastfed.
I think that might have something to do with how
big they are!

Halloween

The girls first Halloween was a blast!!!
They are getting so so chubby, which made the
costumes even cuter!

The plan was to be Ron Burgundy and
Veronica Corningstone.....it was close!

The whole gang! Everyone dressed up!

The mustache went away very
early into the evening.

My parents may have won the costume
competition of the night!

The original plan was for Evelyn to be the
cow, but Annabelle has recently developed
some serious chub, so this was much more fitting!

Katy Perry and Russell Brand

Aiyana and her guy were Bonnie and Clyde
It was a really fun evening!
