Savannah is turning 5!














I cannot believe my sweet Savannah is 5 years old! These past 5 years seem to have flown by and she is growing up so fast. Savannah is such a sweet little girl. I love her personality of loving girl things like wearing pretty dresses and the color pink, but she's outside in an instant catching bugs and playing in the dirt. She is always asking me, "What can I do to help you , mama?" She loves to read books and tell stories and sing songs that she has made up. She loves to play with Gavin and now her new baby sister. She is a wonderful big sis! She LOVES to have a one on one "date" with daddy or mama or nana or just about anyone! I am really enjoying this age where she has moved into being able to have some good talks and discussions and is becoming such a big girl! I treasure my time with her! Happy 5th birthday Savannah Mary! This year she wanted to have a Kitty party for her birthday. She helped paint kitty faces and we make cat ears for everyone. They had lots of fun. After she opened all her presents, we surprised her with kitten of her own, which she has been wanting for over a year! So, this little kitty will be and outdoor cat. She was thrilled and loves her new kitten. Ma came down for her birthday too, which was the icing on the cake!

Maliyah's photo shoot!

So my mom and I played photo shoot with Maliyah and had such a great time posing her and trying on all these cute little hats. She slept through the whole thing and never seemed to care how we positioned her! We loved how they turned out! Here are a few of my favorites....

Fourth of July

Here is Savannah and Gavin in their 4th of July attire. They were so excited this year to go to the fire works tent to get fireworks. We had a great time watching a few different local firework shows and then setting off all the basics of our own. Maliyah slept right through it all! Today was her actual due date, but she is now 11 days old!

Maliyah's first bath

Well, Maliyah seemed to really enjoy her first bath. She did not cry at all! As you can see, we had a lot of help!

One week old!

Sweet little Maliyah is one week old already! I am so thankful for all the help. My wonderful mom is here with me and I am so enjoying her being here. I am so very blessed to have to have such an incredible mom! Savannah is also a great helper. She adores her little sis and loves to hold her. She actually is really asleep next to her on the couch while holding her in this picture. So sweet. Maliyah looks bigger than she really is in all of the pictures we have taken. She is actually a teeny little thing!

I know I'm a bit biased, but what a cutie Maliyah is in her polka dots! She is such a sweet baby...so layed back and easy going with this cute little face and wrinkly forehead. She seems to only cry to tell us she is hungry and that she does not like cold wipies. If she does cry, she instantly stops when when someone picks her up. Oh, how I pray she continues to be this easy!
