..."popsicles on the porch"...what a great afternoon treat and our favorite way to spend time together! These are simple and precious moments! Princess #1 and Princess #2 along with Little Man #1 and #2 are my inspiration for most of these writings.

Family Christmas Pictures
So Tim just finished shooting our family Christmas portraits to send out to family and friends. It was so much fun doing it in our own house. Good-bye JC Penny's :)
As we narrowed it down to the one we'll actually send out, here are a few that didn't make the cut! :)
It's amazing what you go through for one good picture. I have a new found respect for photographers. :) Good luck Tim!
These are great! Sometimes the out-takes are better, I think. By the way, Cash was so adorable in the nursery on Sunday! I had so much fun playing peek-a-boo with him. What a sweet little boy he is. :)
Hi! My name is Melanie! Thanks for stopping by! I welcome your comments and look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Did you ever say to yourself...I could NEVER be a stay at home mom? I did...and now I'm a stay at home mom and loving it! This blog primarily reflects how God guided me to this decision, the vision he has given me for motherhood and the things that I am learning through this season!
God has blessed me with such a wonderful husband that I've been married to for 10 years. We have two beautiful little girls and two handsome little dudes. They have truly brought so much joy to our hearts that it's kind of hard to remember what life was like before we had them.
Adoption has always been on our hearts and though we don't know where all that fits in just yet, we know that whatever that looks like and whenever that is, God's timing is always perfect.

I love the one of Cash eating the lights. They're all hilarious!
