Post 263

Where does the weekend go? It was pretty crazy this weekend, had some good friends over friday for grilling hot dogs and reorganizing the guest room which is in the process of being converted into "thesis central". Thats another story though... We took our girls to Bandera for some Easter/birthday pictures and three hours and countless changes of clothes later it looks like we have some great shots. Our photographer was great, patient, fun and just had a great time overall. Kallison got pretty tired at the end and didn't want to smile, however she did manage to pee everywhere LOL. Aida was a trooper through the whole thing and had fun. They both got to play with cake and it was wild, Kristi and I were covered in cake by the end and the girls needed a bath in the sink, it was awesome.

It was tough because the girls woke up at about 5a because of the thunderstorms that moved in so they were exhausted by lunchtime and so were we. We had lunch next door and Kallison and Aida both got to try refried beans, Kallison gave it a 10 Aida not so much. But this place had some Awesome Horchata!! It was a great day. One thing about it everything we do with these girls is an experience, our love for them grows everyday, with every Ba Ba, Ma Ma, Da Da, laugh, cry, stand up, fall down, new food, smile, and 1000 other things they do or say we are blessed to be there through it all.

Having kids really has shown me what God must feel about us, that he sees us through all of these milestones, challenges, mistakes, rejection and He is our biggest fan. He won't give up on us no matter how far we stray, I never really understood why until having kids of my own. I know our girls will be faced with a lot of challenges in their life, but I know that Kristi and I will always love them and be there through all of them.

Well it is past my bedtime so I am out. Will post pictures soon when we get them :).
