Spring has been good to us! In April we welcomed Kinley Anne to the family followed by sweet Emery in May. Aunt Jess = very happy.

Got to spend some time with these two cuties last weekend right after their new baby sister was born.
Pretty excited about our sweet new Emmy!

Perhaps telling them to paint whatever they wanted wasn't the best thing. But it was fun!

I'm pretty sure baby yawns are one of the cutest things on earth.

Now this was one fun couple! I had to smile during the shoot each time they'd incredulously say "I can't believe we're actually doing engagement pictures!" It didn't take long to see that they just really love being with each other. Which only strengthens my resolve that best friends make for the best couples :)

Yes, I'm sure! I think.

Sayonara chocolate molten lava cake. And raspberry cheesecake. And cookie dough on a spoon. In a little test with ourselves, Anna and I are going off all sweets until the marathon. Actually, it's already happening - I haven't had any treats since Sunday! To some people this is probably called normal eating ... but not this girl. It's not as if I'm eating Reeses and cookies for breakfast, lunch, and dinner but I do have a hard time saying no.

So far this week I've said no thanks to dulce de leche cake (that looked AWESOME, by the way), lemon meltaways, chocolate nuggets, cookie dough & brownie cookies, gingersnap cookies, and a few more things that I won't bother to list because it's making me hungry.

Technically this is only for about 1 1/2 months. And let's be realistic - I'd never be able to cut treats out completely. We just booked a cruise for June and my willpower can only hold out for so long. But maybe I'll have more power to say no to mediocre sweets and only settle for quality stuff. And say yes to all sorts of awesome fruit options. The real test will be this weekend when I have to make a cake without eating any of it. If I can pass that test, I think I'm golden! Wish me and my willpower the best of luck.

Look out - Curlie is ready to pop! I have my fingers crossed for Wednesday night or Thursday ... but I think Curlie has her fingers crossed for ASAP, PLEASE.

The First of Many:

Springtime downtown has got to be one of the most beautiful things. White blossoms everywhere and that crisp spring smell in the air. And Anna and I have this in common: we love to take walks and take pictures. Usually at the same time. So of course we ended up at the Capitol where we hit the tail end of the beautiful blossoms.
