The Loves of My Life

The last week I got some really great shots. Well, great for my camera. My camera is kind of a piece of crap, but I can't complain. At least I have a camera. I would like to invest in a really nice camera, but we are just waiting a while. Hopefully before too long Eric will decide he wants one as bad as I do.
Look at these precious angels!

Dad snuggling with his littlest baby...he still calls Ericka his baby. I can't even tell you how amazing Eric is! I love him so much! He doesn't know how much he does and all that it means to me. I try to express my feelings and my gratitude, but somehow words seem to always get so mixed up and the wrong things come out. I guess I just need to keep trying and one of these days something might come out the way I want it to.

Ericka was being so silly putting the basket on her head, and over her eyes. The camera wasn't fast enough to catch her cute smile.

So while I was on bed rest the last week of my pregnancy with Claire, I had to take my blood pressure. Ericka witnessed this several times. And she got the blood pressure machine out the other day and knew exactly what to do with it. Notice how she even has the cuff on her arm...though it is way too big.


I love these girls so much! Emotions overcome me; I can't even put into words how I feel to be the mother to these most amazing, sweet children.

Holy cow!! TOO TOO CUTE! Love love love them! It's funny how Claire has as much hair as Ericka! I also love how Ericka knows just what to do with the blood pressure machine...just goes to show how much they learn from us! Also, Ericka's hair looks lighter. It may just be the flash, but it looks more blonde. Also, I will be giving you a couple of the dolls I am making. And I will make some more dresses and accessories to go with them. So, just be patient. And, one more thing. Keep the awesome pictures coming. They are all so precious.

What beautiful pictures. I love sleeping pictures. That is wonderful that your husband is so supportive and that he is able to be with you to experience raising your babies together. Erika looks so cute with that blood pressure cuff on. Keep on enjoying these precious moments you have they go by so fast.

Great pictures! They are both such cute girls. Having two is definitely an adjustment, but it pays off later when they entertain each other (or tease each other, maybe its a wash). I love the pic of Eric asleep with both of them, and the one of Ericka kissing Claire's lips.
