Two Terrific Two Year Olds!

I stole this post from Molly's site.....So forgive the doubles on some of these pictures! :)

Landon and Nehemiah are only nine days apart, and have been together since they were three months old. So it has almost been like they were twins! And it is sooo much fun to see them grow up together! :D

We had trouble getting Nehemiah to laugh at first... until Sam had this brilliant idea to throw leaves on top of my head... Nehemiah laughed at that to say the least! :-D Rocking... Laughing... And just bein' plain "borable"!!
The Delightful Duo! I have no idea what Sam was doing at this point to make them laugh... ah, there's no tellin'!!
We love this one!!
Again, I'm not sure what Sam was doing...
but I love the thoughtful look on his face!

Chickadee Soaps

Matt bought these beautiful soaps as an anniversary present....(actually he got me a lot of things...to which I will post about in another post! :P) Confusing huh? Haha So anyhow a local lady make these her email is chickadeesoaps@yahoo.com soon she is hoping to have a website set up and I may do some more pictures for her!

I had a blast taking pictures of these personality filled bars of soap, and naturally Molly was there with me taking pictures as well....These first two photo's are one's that she took. (you can visit her site at www.samollyphotography.com )

This one smells good enough to eat! I love the oatmeal detail!

This bar actually has coffee in it! It takes unpleasant smells out of your hands!

I heard that this one is mint...but I'm not sure because the label wasn't on when I got it and it also has more of a fruity smell! (I really like this one!!!)

Mmmm...a warm cup of Apple Cider put into a bar of soap!

Beautiful Rose soap, almost too pretty to use!

Hope you enjoyed this post!!

Ultrasound from yesterday...19 weeks along.

Mary Vance thought of doing this...I really like the B&W with a splash of color!

Side view.....you have to see the last picture to know what the baby will be! *giggles*

As soon as the Doc. started the ultrasound and moved it around just a tad I saw this picture ^above^ and I said, "That is NOT a girl at ALL!" lol So now we know that this is Michael Alan Bates! I knew it all along! :P We can't wait to meet him!
