girlies photographed by yours truly.
oh, my mama heart.
i could stare at their lil' faces all day.
still.

there's pleeeenty more sister pix where these came from.
my computer's hard drive is begging for mercy.

did i ever tell you that we secretly wanted a {girl} with our second miracle pregnancy?
simply so that sisters would be living under our roof.
so close in age.

and no, granny, i didn't wear the tutus this year. 
tempting.
maybe next time. ;)

  4. What great pictures of your girls! (And I really liked the sister quotes too!) Do you have a secret for how much they like each other? The two sisters in my house are struggling with that! : )

  5. What GORGEOUS pictures of your girls. I love the sister quotes too!

    Did you make the tutus? Were they hard. Kei has been wanting one, the ones she has she has outgrown. We saw tons at a festival we went to last weekend but they were all for 5 and under. :)

  11. Love it!!

    So, who is the watcher and who is the dancer? Is your older one the watcher--or do I just think that because that is the case with my girls?

    Do you tell them how to pose? Or is that just their personalities?

    I adore all of the facial expressions! I am over the moon about those tutus! The quotes made me tear up!

    Awesome post!

    Happy Easter to you and your family!
