Twinsies — Finally!!

Posted in Personal, Portraits by Holly

Most of you know that we just had twins!  It has been the most amazing thing and we love them to death!  The adjustment has been huge, but manageable.  We have been working like crazy to be able to keep up with everything and still be able to enjoy just how precious and tiny they are.  We feel incredibly blessed that God has given us these little gifts!  The pregnancy was rough and we appreciate all the prayers that went up on our behalf.  I was able to carry them to full term!  Amazing!

Many of you have been waiting to see pictures for a long time and we are so excited to finally have a chance to breathe and show off our little angels!

Probably my fave shot of the two of them.

Another cuddly shot.. You know it’s kind of funny. When we look at them now we can see all their little differences.  However when we were at the hospital, we could barely tell them apart!  We had to get pink & blue blankets so that we knew who was who!   There were several times where we thought we had one baby and come to find out it was the other one!  Now they look completely different!!  I can’t figure out how they could grow inside me for 9 months and come out looking the same but then change so drastically in just a few short weeks! … or we can simply blame it on complete sleep deprivation!!!

Well, we hope you have been enjoying that we have been blogging  a bunch again!  The pregnancy was really hard on me and our blog kind of went by the wayside.  However, we have so much to show you!!!!  Keep checking in!

Well, make that TWO storks!  Our two little bundles of joy arrived on Friday night!  We just got home from the hospital and can’t wait to share some images of our new family additions — which will be done as soon as we have a chance to sleep!!!  :)  – Just fyi, feeding 2 newborns every 2 hours is crazy!!   We will be quite busy this upcoming week, so please be patient if there is a delay in our returning phone calls or emails.  Feel free to follow our status on Facebook as well.

Babies on the way?!?!?

Posted in Personal by Donny

As you all know, we are expecting a couple additions to our family…. it seems as though they may be coming early.  We had quite a scare on Friday and Saturday where Holly went into pre-term labor and an emergency c-section seemed imminent…  but, as of this writing (11 pm Sunday night) its looking more hopeful that we can let them bake for a day or two more (and hopefully much longer).  Thank you to everyone who has been praying for us and checking in with us.   We apologize ahead of time for taking a little longer to follow up with phone calls and e-mails.   We are definitely going to be at the hospital all week this week without internet service.   We’ll check back in with you as we can.  Thank you for your understanding.

lots of wishes for all of you!!!!!

Holly, Ever present is His watchful eye, and if ever there were a family deserving of the blessings He bestows it is yours. I will keep you and yours in my prayers! It was a pleasure meeting you and your family and you’ll always be one of my favorite memories when I think of RightStart Rancho Cucamonga!

Big Announcement!!

Posted in Personal, Portraits by Holly

Well, from the picture below, it may not be that big of a surprise what our announcement is!  We are pregnant!!  However, the bigger surprise is that our family will be growing this summer by not just one baby, but two!  Thats right– twinsies!!  We are incredibly grateful and excited!  The past months have been such a whirlwind of trying to get things ready for the kiddos and adjusting to a twin pregnancy (fyi: very different from a singleton pregnancy)!  The picture below was taken about a month ago at only 24 weeks!!  Crazy, huh.  My belly wasn’t even that big when I delivered our daughter!  LOL.  Donny and I have been having fun recently and have done a couple photo shoots of my big belly.  Here is just one photo from one of the shoots. Hope to post more soon!

Funny story behind this shot.  We were on a somewhat major street and had pulled aside to get shots in the yellow flowers/weeds.  Donny wasn’t really liking the shirt I was wearing and suggested I take it off…. I kinda laugh now, because I normally am pretty conservative on these matters, but… when it comes to cool pictures… the picture wins, right?  — Cars definitely started slowing down!!  LOL…   So moral of the story is that I know we ask a lot of our clients to do funny things and ask that they trust us — we even have to take our own advise sometimes! (Disclaimer:  We generally do not ask clients to take their clothes off :) )

We can’t wait to share more with all of you as our family grows!  Thanks for being a part of our lives!

Cousins

Posted in Personal by Holly

I had such an awesome time visiting my new little niece!  She is adorable.  Being an auntie is so great.  Little Hadyn is such a good baby.  I was there for several days and I never even heard her cry!  I found myself missing the cute little sounds that babies make — my favorite is the little humming sound they make when they are nursing.  Ohhh… so precious…

Anyway, our little one was so excited to see her brand new cousin.  I can’t even explain the look of complete adoration that she had in her eyes for Hadyn.  She held her so well and would pat her kindly.  Her first comment was “cute mouth!”  What made her think that, I have no idea.  Then she would move the baby’s face by pushing her cheek softly and turning it toward her saying, “Wook (look) at me.”  

Her sweet smile is precious!

I agree…the smile in the second picture melts my heart! It’s easy to see the love in her eyes and smile.
The stories about her patting Hadyn, saying she has a cute mouth, and telling her to “wook” at her are wonderful. You have a very cute, intelligent, and mature (can I say that about a 1 year-old?) daughter.
