Mother's Day Pics for Mom

During our visit to DC, Trina and I decided to have portraits taken of us and our girls for my Mom. The photographer was fantastic and she spent the morning with us photographing Hannah at the park playing and then some shots in Trina's front yard. Hannah was such a trooper being she had a 103 fever that morning. It was so hard to keep from sharing the photos with my Mom until Mother's Day. Trina and i picked our three favorites and had them framed for Mom. I helped hang them in her entry way after our nice Mother's Day afternoon and dinner. Here are the three photos that we chose:

DC Vacation to visit the Hawkins

We just returned from a fabulous trip visiting cousin Hannah, Auntie Trina, and Uncle Monte. The first few nights we had girl time while Daddy and Uncle Monte cruised to Philly for a mancation. They competed in a sports leisure event where their team participated in hot dog eating contests, darts, beer drinking, etc...Daddy said it was so fun because he drank beer and ate food all day. Their team took 5th place:)
I am so lucky because my Uncle Monte gave us a private tour of the west wing of the White House. I slept through the first half of the tour and woke up just in time for pictures. Daddy got to go back the next day and see the NY Yankees along with President Obama. I'm starting to wonder who this vacation was for...
The rest of our trip we played a lot outside with Hannah and we we went to the numerous parks that Falls Church had to offer. Hannah loves being outside playing and it was so fun to watch her. We came home after 8 days and we were so sad to say goodbye. Counting down the months until July when they come visit us.
As for my big milestones...well i still have no teeth, I am trying to crawl, and I love to talk. Life is Good!
