Our Little Missy is 6 months old

Brooks loves it when his sissy comes in to wake him up from his nap and lays down with him, no he REALLY does.

And she loves to be close to him too. They are so young but you can already tell that they have a strong bond. (The other day when I dropped him off with a babysitter instead of whining for mommy like he usually does, he cried that he wanted his sissy, what a sweetheart)

She's starting to push up on her knees a little, and rolling all over the place.

Love the stink eye, I crack up every time I look at this picture.

We just love our Zoey doll, especially now that she has become a much more calm baby and her fun personality is really starting to show. She loves to laugh at her brother and talk to him, she gives slobbery open mouth kisses, loves to EAT, is a cuddler and loves to be a part of the fun!

Stock Show Parade

I don't know who's doing the job over your city??

The gang's all here!

Sis was all bundled up, it was a chilly day.

We've never seen so many horses of all shapes and sizes in one place at one time-

there are no motorized vehicles in the parade only horse-drawn-buggies.

Our first Texas-sized parade!

Photo Shoot

I had to throw this one in there because that little giraffe was keeping us all smiling, ha!

We didn't manage to get a family photo that day because Brooks was at his finest and we didn't want to document that attitude.

T'was the Night Before Christmas

Zoey's first Christmas, almost 5 months old.

Listening to grandmama tell the story of Jesus' birth and the true meaning of Christmas.

and then Grandpapa reads The Night Before Christmas

Brother and sister with their baby girls in their new Christmas PJ's.

Family Dinner isn't complete without Christmas poppers and party hats!

After we cleaned up and put on our new Christmas shirts.
(luckily there is no evidence of how I really looked on Christmas morning)

Christmas morning.....

Zoey was pooped from all the present opening, she was spoiled at her first Christmas!

Brooks was seriously spoiled....half of his presents are hidden to be re-wrapped for his B-day and he'll never know the difference!

It SNOWED Christmas Day, mom and I just had to build a snow-lady to compete with the neighbors.

Proof of the AZ boy shoveling some white stuff.

She's beautiful.

Church was cancelled due to the snow but we dressed up anyway because it was Brooklynn's special day.

Ryan blessed her in my parents living room in the dress that my mom made for her. It was awesome and I'm glad we got to be a part of this special occasion.

She is such a doll, we're so excited to have our first P cousin!

(and only 3 weeks older than Zoey!)
