Oh my kiddos

The kids have been driving Dan and I crazy lately. Period. But... they are still absolutely adorable and sometimes, just sometimes, when you want to cry because they are so frustrating, they do something so adorable, you just can't help but laugh. Here are a few photos of my crazy frustratingly adorable children. We tried to do a little photo shoot with Reggie so we could include pictures with his first birthday invitations. And this little monkey does not sit still so this is about what every picture looked like. But still cute, right?
And mister Reg loves to put his head on the floor and stand like this. So silly.
And missy moo Mya is definitely my silly sweet girl who is really into making funny faces right now.
And bonus, she has just started really doing sweet smiles for the camera... it only took almost three years!
And last, this is our new development: Mya rides her tricycle and Reggie sits on the back where the storage is. He holds on tight and she can't pedal very fast due to the extra weight, so it works out perfectly. It's really cute. And I love how they like to play together right now.

So that's all for now.

Life

I've been absent for a little while because life got in the way. I'm not sure who all reads this thing anymore but for those of you who do, here's a little photo update on the Barnes family. Things have been... well, I don't really know how things have been lately... difficult, wonderful, stressful, lovely... a little bit of everything all rolled into one.
