midwifery & motherhood : August 2012

our little family

the daddy
jeff. firefighter, paramedic, hands-on and best possible dad to little girls. can teach them how to change the oil in the car and be man enough to play dress-up. my best friend. can fix just about anything; he's as handy as they come. nonconfrontational and nice to everyone; nobody's jeff's enemy. i heart him.

the mommy
shani. that's me. i love babies, swimming, photography, traveling, and the beach. a california girl at heart; i love hot weather, avocados, the sun, tank tops, and anything else associated with summer. we grow our own food and i attempt to keep the house in order.

the big sister
aili. sweet, nurturing, empathetic, nonstop energy, lots of smiles. loves her baby sisters. people say she looks like my mini-me. likes dance class, swimming, tutus, and food.

the middle child

andie lucie. the spiciest little toddler you'll ever meet, we are in for a ride when this one's a teenager. she gives the world's best kisses, which is a good thing, because boy she is a pistol! likes dance class, pingu (don't ask), and princess dresses, which she refers to as her "beautifuls."

the baby

avery abigail. she's my sweetie pie (for now!) not sure how she'll survive this crazy house, but we all love her to pieces.
