Mia's first day of preschool and she turned 4!

Wow, poor kid.  I keep forgetting to post an update on our sweet Mia!  I am completely blaming it on the pregnancy brain - I am so forgetful these days!

 

On September 4th Mia started her first day of preschool! 

 I was a little nervous about the start of preschool for her. She has always been our very shy little girl and seems to prefer to be wherever mom, dad, or big sister is.  Thankfully she did amazing! She was so excited to be back with all her little friends and to see her favorite teachers. 

 On September 21, Mia celebrated her 4th birthday!  I know! She's 4 already!!  It truly is hard to believe.  She had a fantastic day and we made sure to make her feel extra special.  We had a very small party (mom isn't up for big bashes these days) with some of our closest friends and family.  She loved every single moment of it. 

 She is such an amazing little girl! I love her so much and feel extremely blessed God chose her to be in our family.  And any day now she'll be a BIG SISTER. She is also so very excited about meeting our little one  and cannot wait!

Summer Family Pictures

We have finally been blessed with some cooler weather after the very hot couple of weeks we have had.  One of the things I wanted to check off the to-do list before "Baby Cinnamon" is born was to get some family pictures taken.  Thankfully we have the equipment to do it ourselves - although they would never be as wonderful as a photographers - so we can take them whenever we want.  And with the girls not wanting to do this for more than 45 minutes - 1 hour, we have to work very fast while keeping it very fun! Not to mention all the distracting grasshoppers - the girls really wanted to chase them and not focus on pictures. {Their fascination with bugs makes me laugh. I love my girls so much!} Here a just a few we want to share.... Enjoy!
