Maggie's birth

 I was lucky enough to be at Maggie Jae's birth-- Callan came for a little while to eat and cheer Aunt Brandi on.

 Brandi was a trooper!

 and she is here!!

Amazing job guys!-- so happy to have this new, beautiful, perfect little girl as a part of our family!

Abi's #1 bday!

 just a few pics of this little dolly ;)

 Stari and I made these-- and by that-- I mean I made one and left-- they're the cutest thing ever right?!

 cutest boy!

 we sure love our uncle Dave.

Ryan with the BIG papa toad!

the Beach is the best backdrop ever.

 sandy toes

 little man boobies ;)

 crazy smile

 loved eating the sand-- loved it.

 I mean- really, really loved it

 Emmy is so darling.

 she came up with these poses on her own- waaaay cuter than what I would have come up with.

 we love our Uncle Josh!!

 little best friends ;)

 Elles was a bit of a pill today-- the only pic of a smile-- LOTS of nasty ones...

 dancing in the waves

 Ellie-doing the shell dance...or her impression of Gollum (I can almost hear the "my precious")

 I love this.

 World's best Papa
