Happy Thanksgiving!

We are having a low-key Thanksgiving in the Letz household this year. We decided to stay home and not travel with an almost 7 week old... Alan's sister and her family were planning on coming, but unfortunately, one of the kiddos got sick. :( Luckily, we had a traditional Thanksgiving meal with our small group Sunday, so today we're just going to grill steak and have some yummy sides with it!

I have been doing a better job of getting my camera out lately and decided that I needed some more pictures of our precious three kiddos... Both the big kids LOVE holding Rebekah Jo, so I made sure to take some with them holding her, as well as some with all three kiddos.

I told David to smile and this is what I got... Love it!!!

I hope everyone has a blessed Thanksgiving and enjoys time with family.

Maternity Pictures!

Like I mentioned, we took maternity pictures over the weekend! Maleigh from Canon Creek Photography took them and did a phenomenal job! She was able to catch all the personality of our sweet kiddos and I am so in love with how they turned out!

Both sides of Alan's family raises cotton, so when Maleigh suggested taking some of our pictures in a cotton field, I jumped on the idea! What a fun way to take pictures, but also honor the heritage of the Letz's and Riddle's.

Baking with Santa

It's been way too long since I've last been here. And a lot has happened! We've traveled to see both sets of parents, went to Oklahoma for my sister's graduation (for the record, 9 1/2 hours in the car with two small kids is not the most fun... But seeing Michelle graduate was definitely worth it!), had Thanksgiving, and perhaps, most importantly, visited Santa!

For those that remember, this is how our visit with Santa started out last year...

Elizabeth ignored Santa for quite a while before warming
up to him...

And David just wasn't having
the man in the red suit...

So I was a bit nervous on how this year was going to turn out. Luckily, they both loved Santa! Phew... We did baking with Santa and the kids had a blast rolling out the dough, cutting cookies, and even eating a few! David has started sticking his tongue out a lot, so we got some priceless photos of that, which is a bit hilarious. Any time we'd say "smile" he'd stick that tongue right out.

David's Second Birthday Party!

David had a great birthday party this year! It was pretty small, but everyone had a blast! My parents, both of Alan's sisters and their families, and one of our friends and their family came. Much fun was had by all the kids in the bounce house and playing all around our backyard!

David wasn't too much on all the attention that singing "Happy Birthday" brought. He buried his head in my neck and didn't look up until everyone was done singing. It was pretty cute, if you ask me!

The sweet cousins!

All in all, David had a great birthday hanging out with friends and family! Can't wait to see everyone again soon!
