My little Buttercup has the cutest smile...










Annie aka Buttercup has blessed our family for the last 33 months or so. She is one sweet girl. There are so many things I love about her. She is dog-loyal to Gracie. When Gracie gets in a tight spot, Annie is the first to back her up, like a few days ago when Jackson took her toy and wouldn't give it back, here comes Annie, 35 pounds of spit and fire, telling Jackson where he can hang his hat if you know what I mean.
I love all her little phrases, like "I pinky promise..." or "I want my sister GRACIE" or "This is saalmoon (salmon) and it's nummy! Try it Grace." She says words like "actually" and "I cryin". She is very expressive especially concerning potty training. "It's very, very hard mommy."
I also love so much her big, blue, beautiful eyes but I suppose my favorite thing about her is that lovely smile. Big, bright and all teeth! She is a sweetheart and we love her!

Olivia's big day!



























We blessed Olivia on June 7th. What a beautiful day. We had friends and family there to see our sweet baby recieve a wonderful blessing. Her dress was lovingly made by Grandma Hill and she had gorgeous blanket crocheted by Grandma Jackson. We have recieved so many blessing in our family and Olivia is the cherry on the top! It is so fun to watch how the other kids love and protect her. She brings such a calming and loving spirit to our home and helps us realize how blessed we are. Thanks Livy! We love you!
