364/365: running around

{running around}
We had a busy day. We put away all the Christmas decorations, cleaned out the under-the-stairs closet, made a mall run, and Nick and I went out on a date. Not much time for picking up the camera, so my phone had to do.
We were on our way back to the car from our mall errands, and Nick (wise daddy that he is) knew that Kate needed a little running around time instead of just putting her straight from the stroller to the car seat. We just had a small patch of grass, but that was all she needed to burn off a little steam!

361/365: meeting lucy

Joey and Beth were the best man and matron of honor in our wedding. Needless to say we were super excited to get to spend time with their sweet family while we've been in Austin. We finally got to meet baby Lucy, who is just a couple days younger than Caroline. Isn't she a doll? We spent some time together this afternoon getting some updated shots of them as a family of FIVE now!


Christmas miscellany

Merry Christmas Eve! I have a few random Christmassy things to share...

1. Our card. A big thank you to Jennifer for chasing us Kate when she was nearly nine months pregnant to get us a few family photos! Go see a few more from our little session on Jennifer's blog!



2. Santa picture. I caved and did it, even though I was 95% sure this would be the outcome...



3. Christmas 1984. I'm a little over 2 and wearing the candy cane dress you saw on Kate the other day.


4. Kate says, "Merry Christmas!"


See you later for a 365 pic!
