Getting back in the blogging mood!

When we moved into our new house Addilyn got her own room with a big girl bed. Isnt it so cute! Sheldon or "World Traveler" as we call him, went to Germany back in November to his company factory. I was amazed with the pictures that he brought back and thought that I would share some. He is going back there next month and is really excited to visit there again.

Addilyn 2nd Birthday Party

McKarlee's Birth Announcement

Sweetheart Sisters

Addilyn and McKarlee already have a strong bond. They were playing outside together yesterday and I snapped this cute picture. They are so fun and I couldnt be more proud of them.

Finally an Update!

Wow it has been a crazy summer here in the Stanford home. We have had the opportunity to do so many fun things and spend lots of time with family. Here is a little update on what we have been up to.

Addilyn is such a good big sis and is maturing and growing faster everyday. She loves McKarlee and watches out for her. The first thing she ask for in the morning is where Karlee is. She loves running through the sprinkler, playing with friends, swimming, coloring, singing songs, playing with daddy, puppies, talking to grandma on the phone, and of course she my child so she enjoys eating.

McKarlee is such a sweet baby. She is almost 4 months but seem so much older. She is soooooo smiley and loves to scream at the top of her lungs to get your attention. She also loves to swim, play with toys, laugh at Addilyn, and take baths. She sleeps through the night and loves to snuggle with mommy. I couldn't ask for a better baby.

We just got back from a 3 week vacation to visit Sheldons family in Canada. We not only went to visit family but Sheldon's uncle passed away and so it was very important to us to attend his funeral. It was a beautiful funeral full of lots of tears and we will miss him very much. We had so much fun playing with cousins and I still cannot believe how quickly it went by. On our 16 hours drive home we stopped at Fairmont hot springs resort in Montana and enjoyed a few days with just our little family.

We left to Canada in such a hurry that we forgot our camera behind so I have no pictures for this post but I am getting a new camera soon so I will be posting new pictures.

Happy Fathers Day!

Our lives have been blessed by 3 great fathers!

The father of my children and my best friend- Sheldon is a wonderful father. His kids love him and love to be spoiled by him everyday. His family always comes first and he makes sure that they are well taken care of before he even thinks about himself. He likes to have fun and enjoy the outdoors with his family. I love Sheldon more then I could ever imagine and my kids think the world of him. Love ya babe!

My Father- taught me the importnance of saftey and hard work. I find myself using the lesson that he taught me on a daily basis. He is kind and understanding and loves my kids as much as I do.

Sheldon's Father- Gentle and funny! When he talks to his grandchildren it is so cute. I am so greatful for the example that he has been to Sheldon and I know that Sheldon is a good father because Dwight was and is a good father to him.

She is here!
