I do not believe in overkill



At least when it comes to pictures that is. Here is Lindsey with some of my girls.



Here is what was on my mom's camera. Here is Alex modeling the balancing bird. Have you seen one of those? They are awesome, simple and the kids have loved playing with it.



The with be the second time, and last time my younger sister and I can get a belly shot together.



The Evans Girls.



Nana with the first of the three newborns this year. Just thought this was a cute picture.



A very smiley picture of me and Jackie. We knew each other before we had kids and so that now makes her one of my longest friends here. And she famously brings her 'salad' every time there is a party. Jackie and I have some good stories together, mostly cause she had witnessed many of my most embarrassing moments, there are a book full.



Darby and Vienna



My dad with Layla.



Layla smiling. Look at those lips, those are Lindsey lips for sure!



Darby had her very first t-ball game on Saturday. She is sold on baseball, especially since she has a bunch of school friends on the team.





My sisters and I. Really doesn't it just look like I've been eating or drinking too much? At lets not discuss what is the size of my head :)




CJ on his 3rd birthday. (hat from 99 cent store)



Not that this is a flattering picture, but really I think I was thinking, "Holy crap, is this what I'm going to be like in a few months? What was I thinking I'm going to have two babies!"



Layla, ok I swear this is my last one of her. Misty, notice the Paparazzi bow?



My mom took these of my girls and their tea parties.




Oh yes, did I mention that I cracked my ipad 2? Like really bad? Like I was sobbing and bawling my eyes out the day before my mom arrived. But we slapped on some tape and just played with it anyway....

But turns out Apple is wonderful. They replaced it for free (they only do this once!), which meant we had to exchange it at the Grove. Totally out of the way trip since Jason was off working and working on the garden (normally he could go to the Grove on his lunch break cause its sort of close) but we made a little train ride out of it and watched the fountain for a bit.




Here are some other really cute ones. Paisley sure loves Darby! And she just learned how to sign the word 'candy'. Cause she asks Luke for a jellybean every morning.



Okay, thats all folks. Ending with such a cute picture of Paisley and Jason. Jason didn't get home til 11:45 p.m. last nite from work so its been more like a dive back into reality after all the family left, but what do you? I'm having to go at a snails place so not have contractions and drink tons of water, but we will make it (see this positive brainwashing I'm attempting). Sorry family, we never gave you warm weather, maybe next time! Now should we start planning the baby blessing trip? Fourth of July weekend!
