Insert attractive children here:

The last picture kind of makes me want to melt.  Her eyes are captivating, her scruffy teddy bear is love worn, and I am smitten with the gap in between her teeth.

Oh babies.

I am starting to think little babes are the best to shoot. I have an addiction to their presh little smiles and giggles, oh my! This little cutie pie was NO exception. I could have taken like 400 snaps of her!

I just wanted to share a sneak peek with her mom, so she could crush on her little one! Thanks for letting me hang out with your doll while the light was perfect. It completed my day!

Gotta love wrestling brothers. My girls have made sure that we don’t lack in the wrestling department at the Porter House.  When my girlies act like that they remind me of puppies.  Come to think of it kids are like puppies in a lot of ways.  They are loud and bite everything, sometimes have an accident on the floor, and eat things they shouldn’t.

A week before we found out we were pregnant with Eden we bought 2 boxer puppies…. What’s that?  We have impeccable timing? Ya I’ve heard that before…. So while I was as sick as a dog (no pun intended) in the early stages of my pregnancy I was dealing with 2 puppies with too much energy and not enough bladder control. Just what I needed.

…….

Enjoy these well dressed boys with plenty of personality :)

My Birthday was last week. I turned 29.  There was no parade, no hot air balloon ride, no spontaneous trip to Disneyland, no dancing bears……

Unfortunately, my amazing mom did me a disservice growing up.  Birthdays were a national holiday: magic, pony rides, birthday parties that were talked about for years, and the cakes…. truly a disservice I tell you.

But, I am 29.  A mother of 3.9 children – and still in the back of my mind on my birthday I hope for a little mermaid cake, or at least a pet giraffe.  When am I going to learn?

I have learned that the BEST days aren’t always birthdays.  It’s the lazy Saturdays where my Lee and girlies snuggle me, jump on the bed, and we make wonderful waffles.  It’s the Fridays that Lee calls in sick to work, we take a ride down Bush Highway when the spring weather is amazing, and then we hit up Tia Rosas and share a pina colada.  Or the spontaneous lunches with my sissies where we all hang out together (Bubs I miss you and I wish you still lived in AZ!!!!!)

I might skip my birthday next year.  Just so I don’t get my hopes up…..  Stupid childhood.

These colorful little guys are brothers that belong to my best friend Cumorah.

and one more for good measure!

Here’s the two responsible for these amazing boys.  The older, tiny Mr.’s favorite movie is Hot Rod. He can seriously pull stunts just as good as Rod… and yes, he likes to party.

ps- I’m kinda embarrassed that I admitted all that about my dumb birthday to the world.  I wasn’t looking for any pity, I had a ROCKIN birthday! (Thanks Lee) Just wanted to share some of my ridiculousness….  I feel closer to you now.
