Chandler's First Birthday/Smash Cake Photo Shoot

We did the whole smash cake photo shoot with Brayden and Sterling so naturally we had to let Chandler dig in too!  She really hadn't had many sweets before this first taste of cake so she was incredibly serious about her cake exploration and tasting!  Our sweet friend and photographer Kim with Modern Bebe did her magic as usual and the pictures turned out perfect!  I am IN LOVE, Hope you enjoy as much as I did!

We got a few great shots pre-cake:

Love this smile, this picture truly shows off her personality!

Cake Time!

Seriously, after her first taste she went straight in with the face!  Hilarious!

Seconds later, face in again!!!

OK now this was pretty hilarious too...Check out these pouts!!!!  This is a picture of their cake dreams literally being crumbled in Chandler's tiny hands!  They were waiting (sort of patiently) for their promised taste of cake too!!!

Utter.Perfection...

I have NEVER seen a cake be demolished like this in my life!

And finally a smile!

Did all the damage she could do..and done!

This sweet child gets to eat cake again tomorrow she'll be ONE!!!  (How I feel about that on a whole other blog post!)

September 2015

We spent the first weekend of our month down in Port A, everyone loved it when PaPa took us on his boat over to our very own private beach!

I'm not sure who was more excited, Brian or Brayden but Brayden is finally old enough to play t-ball!    He started his first season this month and is playing for the Phillies!  We all just love going to watch him play!

Doesn't get much cuter than a little boy in a baseball uniform!

Definitely his biggest cheerleader!

Here are a few more pics from this September:

We had a little paranoid call to 911 this month but all was ok and we definitely did not have a gas leak :)  

Brayden loved getting to explore the fire truck though!

Chandler is really starting to want to play with the big kids and Sterling is starting to tolerate it a little better!

This girl loves walks in the wagon and the stroller!

We have been eating as many meals as we can outside lately with the nicer weather

Sibling love :)

Chandler is trying to take some steps!

We love baby Faith!

Diaper Babes!

Breaking news....Sterlings teachers actually got her to take a nap at school today!  Sweet girl!

We had a fun time at Cibolo Nature center with friends and luckily did not see the alligator that is supposively  roaming!

Brayden and Demi had had the best time exploring together

Bring on October, Cooler Weather, and the holidays!

Chandler at 11 months old!

Seriously, I don't care how cheesy I sound....How is my baby almost a year old?!  It just does.not seem possible!  But time just keeps on going and our sweet Chandler Rose is eleven months old :)  Here is what our precious girl is up to at 11 months:

*Likes walks in general but especially in the wagon

Loves to swing!

*It doesn't take anything to get this girl to smile.  She always responds to a smile with a smile and any time you just say her name.  She currently has six teeth, four on top and two on bottom.

*When she gets tired, she'll start getting a little crabby and will crawl around until she finds me and will want to be picked up.  If I am already sitting on the floor, she will crawl over to me and lay her head in my lap and just suck away on her thumb.  

This particular time she just crawled over and curled up on my shoulder, my heart almost burst open!  Glad Brian was there to snap a quick pic!

Here are a few more of my faves from this month:

This time next month we will be celebrating our 1 YEAR OLD!!!
