Anna Kayt's Dedication

On September 3rd we had Anna Kayt dedicated at our church. It was such a small but sweet meaningful service. They came around and prayed over each child and we felt so blessed to have family and friends there to reach their hands out and pray over our sweet little girl as well. My prayer that I continually pray over Anna Kayt is that she will be a light to others in this world and that she will come to know Christ at a young age. I pray that she will turn into a mighty woman of God who will move her city in ways that no one has ever seen. I pray that many people will come to know Christ through this little girls life! I pray for safety, security, and that she will live life and live it abundantly! We thank God everyday for the blessing of being entrusted to be her earthly parents. We love you Anna Kaytlin!!



My side of the family
The Millingtons

We celebrated with lunch afterwards at our new house :) This was the delicious cake from Olexas....yumm!

BFF

There are Olivia's new favorite friends! She loves her Buzz, Woody, and Jessie! Our church is doing an at the movies series and so they have all kinds of children's movie characters spread around. The first week Olivia was so excited because her absolute favorite character, Jessie, was there! Someone had dressed up as Jessie and I didn't think Olivia would ever leave her side! I so wish I had gotten a picture but it was the week of Anna Kayt's baby dedication so my mind was in a million different places. So we had to settle with these pictures the next week at church. :) Oh well, Olivia still loved to see them!!

War Eagle Hey!!

If I let Olivia pick out anything in her closet, she would quickly go get her 'Aubun cheerleda' outfit. She loves it!! We also have to always have on our Auburn bow, because what outfit is complete without a bow :)
This little one was just excited to be outside on a pretty day!

And this is usually how most of our photo shoots end up, Olivia trying to love all over Anna Kayt! Poor baby! At least she has a big sister who sure does love her :)

Baking with B

Olivia was soo excited that she was going to get to bake with her B. When B let her hold the mixer and stir you would have thought that it was raining m&m's!! She was so excited!! I have a feeling that there will be many more baking days with B in the future :)

Food...Yumm!

For some reason with my second child, I have just not wanted her to grow up as fast as Olivia did. I used to get so excited when Olivia would do new things like eat cereal but with Anna Kayt I just get so sad that she is getting too big. I guess with your second child you really understand how quickly they grow up! A few weeks ago (sorry for being so far behind..ha) we decided to let Anna Kayt try a few bites of rice cereal. Like most babies, she was not a big fan of it all and just spit most of it back out. I thought for a while that she just wasn't ready for it, even though she was 5 months old, but the more I stuck with it the better she got at eating. She now Loves her rice cereal and we have started oatmeal too which she is still a little unsure of. :) Oh how I love those cute faces she makes when something just doesn't taste quite right. :)

Happy Birthday 'A Big John'

I know that I am VERY far behind on blogging here lately!! Moving was a much bigger deal than I ever thought that it would be, especially with two little ones! We are finally in our new house now though, but more to come on that later. :)
During our month long spend the night party :) at the Millingtons 'A Big John' had his birthday party. Or as Olivia would say 'Happy Day A Big John'. She sure does love her Big John! You know you are special when Livi offers to share her lovey tag with you....yummm!!!


Happy girl when she gets her Happy Day Cake!



Happy Birthday Big John, we love you!!
