Twins

When you are looking at a picture and realize your son is a mini version of your younger brother!  A few people have told me thru the years that Zennon looks like me.  And as much as I wanted to take credit and have that little stud look like me.  I just couldn't see it.  Connor is an exact replica ( looks wise, not personality) of his daddy so, I guess I always figured Zennon would be as well.  
With all that being said, looking back at old pictures, I came across this little number of my brother and it was like total deja vu.  Don't mind the crazy colic Uncle Tom has  - Zennon does not have as bad of one.  But total twins.. From the stocky build, to those ears and even that Duris nose, to that side profile even down to the birthmarks ( when their hair is short you can see it) on the side of the head they both have. 
On a total side note:  Connor may have all of his daddy's looks - but, he is my son inside - he is shy, sensitive, quiet and even timid at time.  
Where Zennon is all his daddy inside - our little troublemaker, full of confidence, not scared of anything.  Always keeping us on ours toes - is really a thing!!!!

Three little cuties

I swear Zennon and Rylinn may loves babies more than their momma. 
Is that even possible??
Every time they have a chance they are in full baby swing.  
When Brook is here - I'm pretty sure they ( Zennon & Rylinn ) fight over who plays with her more, who helps her more, who does anything and everything with her more..



Eric's Grandmother

Today we said goodbye to another amazing women.  Eric's grandmother.  
Only 4 short months after we lost our Gigi - another Grandma gone.. 
I think its safe to say it has not been the easiest of years. 
We are so busy in our everyday lives keeping up with our kids, their school. sports, our sports, that we don't always make time to spend with those we need too.  I'm glad my kids got close to their Great Grandma lately as she has been living a little closer to us these past couple years.




My boys understand what is going on and that is she is in a better place, doesn't mean they wont miss her.  I just wish Rylinn was old enough to get to know some of these wonderful ladies in her life.  Good thing will have lots of pictures & memories to share with her.

Matching & Chocolate

Mommy & Rylinn were matching outfits today! 

Funny thing was Daddy got Rylinn dressed without knowing what I was wearing.  
Clearly Rylinn and I need to work on our selfie skills since her face is covered in Chocolate.

Feeding her baby

This girl is just crazy about babies..
Doesn't matter if it is a baby doll or a real life baby, she is obsessed.
I have a feeling we are going to have a lot of baby dolls in our future.
Feeding her baby...

Sometimes Christmas gifts need to be kid tested and approved before they are wrapped and delivered to our baby cousin Brook.
And yes.. its after Christmas but, we didn't celebrate with her until almost the end of January
