Let's Not Forget.

Just because baby Jude is here does not this girl has slowed down one tiny bit.

Her calendar is very busy. 

She has a baby brother to hold.

And Disney on Ice events to attend.

Plus making silly faces for pictures.

Not to mention all her other dolls that must be bounced on the trampoline at least 

eleventy billion times a day.

So the answer to your question is no. She hasn't skipped a beat since her baby brother arrived. 

Hey Jude.

Jude Stephen Martin

was born.

He had us at hello. 

Spring Has Sprung.

It's spring here in Baton Rouge, and we couldn't be happier about it.

Could they look anymore alike? I think not.

Us? Not so much.

happy spring!

Picture This.

just a few of the things we've up to lately.

blake started a dance/gymnastics class. she endures dance only because it means she gets to go to gymnastics.

coloring is a great way to pass a rainy afternoon.

b's sister-in-law got married! and she was nice enough to ask her to be one of the flower girls!

madyson came to visit so a trip to build-a-bear was in order.

easter is just around the corner...

so we've been practicing

hunting eggs.

Just Dance.

Tomorrow B has her very first dance and gymnastics class, or as she calls it, dancing ballet class. Bottom line: any number of things could happen when we get there. She could love it. Or hate it. Or jump right in. Or stand back and watch. Or all of the above.

But for the last 20 minutes she has been dancing her little heart out around the living room to practice. So I'd say whatever happens tomorrow it doesn't matter at all because the last 20 minutes have been totally and completely priceless.

Currently.

This is not a new picture. Not even a little bit. But I love it, and for whatever reason can't quit looking at it. Is it just me or does she not look just like her dad? Love.

Oh Happy Day.

This little nugget is officially 2 years old today. I cannot tell you how that makes me feel.

I wish more than anything I could give him a big ol' birthday hug, but it looks like we're both going to have to wait a few more weeks. In the meantime I'm wishing him the happiest birthday ever from over here in Baton Rouge.

Love you to pieces, Cooper. You've made two years seem like two minutes.

Thanks for being you. You're just what we needed.
