i backing up my computer (which consists mostly of photos) and came across some that i just had to post. i missed posting these on wednesday for wordless wednesday but i figured no one would really care :)

i'm excited for the impromptu photo-shoots in Jackson and Riggs' near future, especially now that they are both expert sitters

gift wrapping and giving (part one)

one of my favorite parts of christmas is wrapping gifts. i love that my mom boxes up all of our gifts, labels them with post-its and then leaves them for me to wrap. this year each person in my family has a different wrapping paper that their gifts will be wrapped in. 
i also love shopping for different people and coming up with fun gifts for everyone! i'm not going to blog about any gifts yet because i'm not exactly sure who might read about them here. but i will write about two little babies that were super fun to shop for this year. since it was the twins' first christmas and everything, i figured that i might should get them a gift. okay so honestly their gifts were some of the funnest to put together. i forgot to take pictures of their gifts before i wrapped them...a hazard of putting the packages together during nap time and then trying to keep Riggs away from scissors and extra paper when she woke up in the middle of my wrapping time. since i'm not with the twins right now, i can't take a picture of them with their gifts. don't worry, i'll totally be staging a picture (or 72) once i'm back. but for now, i'll just post a few cell phone pictures that cindy uploaded already.

wordless wednesday (cellphone dump) + a video

(the above two pictures...i almost can't believe Riggs was ever this little...but then i think about that first friday we spent together and yup it's totally possible)

and a video too (that hopefully works)
