...Jessica and her Dog

Not to long ago Samson was intruded into our little family. He has managed to turn our entire life upside-down. But Jessica loves him so very much.  I think he might just turn out to be worth all of the extra work. =)

Fun in the snow

Yay

Awe sweet love

...playing in the snow!

It's finally here! =) We had such a fun summer and loved being with family, but are happy to have things be back to normal and have snow on the ground. Christmas is in the air and just around the corner!

Not quite sure if the snow is fun yet.

Cute little boots

The snow is cold! 

 I like it!

...playing in the leaves

With winter not far away we decided it was a great day to get the leaves cleaned up. GG sent us these awesome bag that look like pumpkins. They were so fun and made the clean up go faster. Here are some fun pictures from our day!

She's growing up so very fast.

....baby buns diapered in cloth

It has been a long road for us on this cloth diaper adventure. With so very many options and differing opinions on the topic it was almost impossible for me to decide. But I'm happy to say that after all of the stress I have found what works best for us. I have been turning my prefolds into contour diapers. I'm so happy with them. They breath so much better than our all-in-one diapers and dont leak like traditional prefolds can. Even the girls are happier. Jessica has even started telling us when she needs changing. =) I'm so grateful for all of the Momma's who encouraged me and didn't let me give up. We are finally happy with our choice and I encourage you to try it out too! =)
