Too Cute!

This is a sweet moment between Talia and Niko in which she wanted him to sleep in her bed at nap time. He thinks everything to do with Talia is super cool and loved being included. Luckily I got some great shots of this sweet sibling moment!

Swim Lessons

Talia had her first big-girl swim lessons this summer! The class was geared towards getting the children comfortable in the water, and since Talia already dunks herself and "swims" underwater, it was a little bit redundant at times, but she had fun. She passed with flying colors but was told that she needed to listen a little better. Big surprise!!

Happy 1st Birthday Baby Jimmy

Niko's big cousin, Baby Jimmy, turned 1 at the end of May. He seemed to enjoy his party but the big kids certainly enjoyed making the day fun for him by showing him how everything was done! Happy Birthday!

New Game

Talia and Niko discovered a new game that they can both enjoy! Talia runs head on at Niko through the hall and he goes into hysterics watching her descend upon him. Having an older sister around the house does have its perks as I don't think I could entertain him as well as she does!

6th Anniversary

Christ and I celebrated our 6th anniversary on May 24th, and of course, Talia took full advantage of Grandma and Grandpa being over to do as she pleased and bust out the sprinkler! They got some great shots and she braved the not so hot weather for a while at least.

Good Times With Dad

Talia knows Christ is always the one to go to when discovering new sweet treats and fun times. Here is a campfire they enjoyed in late May (complete with smores, of course) and Talia's first slurpy!

So Many Looks, So Little Time

As most of you know, Talia tries out new looks about 17 times a day on average. I especially love the best of both worlds with the basketball princess! The pigtails were a first upon request and they lasted about 2 seconds after the picture documentation was taken. She loves wearing a swimsuit, no matter what the weather and the tutu completes any outfit!

Happy 5 Months, Niko

Our baby boy turned 5 months at the end of April and we are loving the changes in him every day. He is such a laid back and loving addition to our family!

What's a party without sugar?

Talia loved sharing pizza and sweets with her friends after all of that vigorous jumping and climbing. As you can see, she remembered all of her etiquette lessons and ate her cupcake like a lady, just as we taught her!

Talia's Birthday Bash

Talia's 3rd birthday was May 2nd (yes, I know we are behind, but then again, does one really ever catch up with life) and she had a fun party at Pump It Up! Anything to do with bouncing and climbing (not to mention cake and presents) is Talia's cup of tea!
