Baby Bump

It's amazing how easy it is to not keep track of your second pregnancy when you are so easily distracted by the other wonderful child in your life but I finally got some pictures of this growing belly and the joy that goes with our growing family- thank you so much, Aunt Becca! Capturing a few moments of little Miss Reese before she joins our family on the outside : )

Chistmas with the Fields

So, these pictures were all supposed to go in reverse order but oh well! still adorable. Caroline- loving her new chair, chilling with a good read. Now that's the life!

All of the cousins in their favorite jammies- Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!

My little princess with her new dressup clothes and her princess backpack- love it!

Both Leah and Caroline got new chairs for Christmas- they loved them! A great place to rock your baby dolls and read them stories.

First Chistmas Present- home for the holidays!

Singing "Happy Birthday" to Jesus and blowing out his candles. My mom did a fantastic job this year of stressing that we were celebrating Jesus' birthday- and all Caroline could do was talk about that she was going to get to open Jesus' presents for Him on His birthday! How amazing to watch the development of a knowledge of our Savior that we can trust will develop into a deep love relationship with Him.

Decorating our edible Christmas trees....delicious!

Papaw, Mamaw, Caroline, Norah, and Reagan- this picture was taken at 8pm, EVERYONE was ready for bed!

Here comes Santa Claus

Though we don't actually plan on keeping up with the tradition of Santa Claus (this is Brandon's idea- he is very anti-Santa), we did decide to go visit Santa this year. And it was more than we bargained for: free carousel, free games and activites and a ofcourse- your very own picture with Santa.

Caroline's request from Santa?

1. a backpack

2. a purse

3. a frog

Who knew? Merry Christmas!

Fun at the Beach

Following her idol- Natalie. Its so sweet to watch Caroline follow Natalie and Natalie be so kind to her. She would be a great mentor!

Daddy getting buried in the sand- he needed a few kisses to keep him there!

We had a BLAST this summer hanging out at the beach with our good friends: Nate, Becky, Natalie, and Sutton. What a wonderful time of rest and the true definition of "vacation". God has been so good to

Happy Halloween from your little duckling....

Cousin Leah...Friends for Life

Recently started watching Caroline's cousin, Leah every Monday. Its been amazing! Its so fun to watch Leah and Caroline play together, such smiles!

Happy Birthday!

Leading up to Caroline's birthday, I began asking her what she wanted: what kind of cake? What presents? She narrowed it down to a butterfly birthday cake- wonderful time with our awesome family!

New Kitchen!

Caroline's birthday present this year was a new play kitchen. She was so excited to show everyone who came over, and would proudly tell them "Daddy put this together for me!" So thankful for this daddy whom I love soooo much! What a good man.

"Cooking" beans, beans, more beans!

One of our new favorite past times- playing with dried beans! They make a great toy when combined with muffin tins, spoons, and tongs.

Park it.

We've had tons of fun visiting every park Springfield has to offer- Caroline loves being outside, just like me. Her independence grows by the day and its so fun to watch her get older. I feel so blessed that God gave me the privilige of raising this sweet girl!
