When it comes down to it

I absolutely love this hat.  The day that I got it I took these pictures of Porter.  He, at first, did not love the idea of having a hat on, but in the end (with lots of treats and help from my mom) we made it work!

Porter has a pretty cute fake cry, love that he covers his mouth.  I am such a mean mom!

My mom and my little brother came down for Caleb's baptism.  It was so nice to have them here for a few days.  I did not seem like long enough.   I am always sad to see them leave.

My mom and I had tons of fun shopping, laughing and chatting.  I love her!!

I will always treasure these pictures that we got of Porter and her together.  As a child I remember my mom always reading to us no matter how late it was or how many long Berenstain Bears books we picked.  It is one of my fondest childhood memories.  I now love to see her reading books to my kids. 

Hannah loved the fact that she got to dress up grandma.  Grandma had just as much fun as Hannah did!  Love her laughing in the first picture!

My little brother Jayden and the kiddos.  They had a lot of fun together.  We miss you!!
