We survived...at least the first week!

We survived the first week and as Ron's mom says "We look pretty darn good!"
I agree...Ron's parents were a huge help and we will miss them terribly when they leave!!!\
We had a lot of fun doing a photo shoot with the twins. Enjoy!



Proud parents


Our first picture with all SEVEN of us!


Who can fill in the blanks for this picture? We can't stop laughing at this one!


These are the moments when living away from family is hard...


I think JCPenny would hire us on the spot for our photography talents :)


This is a favorite


This makes it all worth it!


"He ain't heavy, he's my brother"


Don't they look excited to get their pictures taken?

Conner has the white hat, Brayden has blue

We cut off their hospital bands today and Brayden wears a blue bracelet

My sleep deprived brain can't think of anything witty to tie this up, so good night!

Oh my goooooshhhh!!!! My boys!!! I need a fix... Rachelle, they are amazing! And that pic of you with them is so precious I want to print it and frame it and hang it in my front entry way. You're the rockinest mom ever!

I think you are plenty witty...I laughed out loud at "he ain't heavy, he's my brother." haha. They are so adorable and we can't wait to meet them! Happy sleeping! (Mindy)

The boys have Pres. Hinckley hairdos...little hair up top, more in the back. I think you'll have plenty of help with those kids. How fun!

Oh man, I didn't think I'd be baby hungry again for awhile, but these pictures are killing me. They are darling!

My goodness, those are some tiny, beautiful boys! I'm SO glad you took all these pictures because I've been checking for them several times, daily. The one with the babies and the stuffed animal should be taken monthly so you can see how they grow. The silly one of the children makes my cheeks hurt from laughing, especially how the twins fit right in! The ones of Rachelle look beautiful. Sorry Mom and Dad are leaving--you will miss them, fo sho. Love you lots. Keep the pics coming.

Rachelle, I am so happy for you, they are so handsome. The picture of the whole family is precious. Love their little bird legs, Lucy has them too.

Janessa said...

Oh, they are so cute! You are making me want twins. You got some really great shots. I think that picture of you holding both of them in the chair is one of my favorites too. So sweet! You look amazing!!!

I had to look at these again today even though I was just there with you yesterday. I am so proud of "all ya'all" and I miss you tons.

Congratulations!! What a beautiful family! good job, photographer. I can't believe you have a family of 7 now. Good luck with 5 kids, including twins! You survived one week, you can do another. Then you can keep telling yourself that week after week. I'm sure you have lots of people praying for you, too. take care.

Rachel said...

Love these pictures! Your favorite one is mine, as well. You look awake, alert, and attentive. The grandparents looks so proud! Your older three look bigger, now. Perhaps because they have to.
