Mackenzie and Chloe = BFF

The beginning of something special.

Chloe loved Mackenzie's fluffy dance costume!

Mackenzie and Chloe also = trouble!
(Can you tell that Chloe was trying to get out of the picture?!)

You can't really see, but Chloe is in the basket of the baby doll stroller. She loves it!




Kenzie drew a picture of Chloe!

Our Kitten, Chloe

This sweet little kitty likes to play while I'm trying to get work done.









Oh, the life of a cat...

Mackenzie's 2 Year Old Potraits

I am so behind on blogging and I promise to catch up soon but for now I just had to share these pictures of Mackenzie taken by Kristin Hollensworth a few weeks ago.

I saw Kristin's work on the Berry family's blog (thanks for the referral Rachel!) and called her ASAP to schedule an appointment. Matt and I decided (aka I used my southern charm to convince him) that having Mackenzie's portraits done each year was really important. Thanks to my persuasiveness (ha!), we have newborn portraits, 1 year portraits and now 2 year portraits. Thanks for seeing the light babe!! :)








I love this one with one of her wall letters in her room!












My FAVORITE!!!





Kristin was so great with Mackenzie and I love that she was able to capture her personality on film! We couldn't be happier with the way they turned out. 

Click here to see more of her work. Thanks again Kristin - the portraits are perfect!

"The Words I Would Say"

I am a new K-LOVE listener (for all of you who don't know what I'm talking about, click HERE and listen for a while) and have absolutely fallen in love.  I listen to this station as much as I can (it's 96.9 in Little Rock) and I can say that it really makes my day better.

Anyway, I am listening at work right now and just heard the most amazing song.  It's called "The Words I Would Say" by Sidewalk Prophets.  I think it's about a year old, but it's new to me and it made me think of Mackenzie. I can't wait to share it with her later when I pick her up from daycare, but I also wanted to share it on here for our memories.  This is the best video I could find on Youtube.  Enjoy!



Mackenzie, these are the words I want to say to you...I love you so much! -Mommy

Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
Thank God for each day,
His love will find a way
