Bakers dozen

And in a blink of an eye, we have a teenager.

Thank you for everything Kristin. You have grown into an amazing young individual, with all your quirkiness, goofy smiles, and the ability to make people laugh. You are a caring sister, a loving daughter, and a loyal friend.

Happy 13th birthday Kristin!

Swing for the fences

Big K turns 8 today. I don't know how to best put into words how amazing it is to see her grow up right before my eyes. I still remember the very first time seeing her amazing little face, and how we had to spend almost everyday going back to the hospital due to jaundice. So much has changed in the past 8 years and through it all, I can still count on Kristin to:

- be an amazing big sister

- love her family

- snore at night

- play with reckless abandon

- being open to trying new things

- having smelly feet

- smile that goofy smile

Happy Birthday Kristin!

I had to dig through the archives to find these, as I don't have any of her baby photos online. Can't believe how much she has changed, yet still looks the same.

It's like a......

Breath of fresh air.

Kristin turns 7 years old today. I'm a little overwhelmed by the fact that she is seven, yes SEVEN years old. My little girl is growing so fast. Please, please, please, slow down.

Since her birthday falls on a weekday, we celebrated with her yesterday, by going to the Exploratorium in San Francisco. I remember visiting the place when I was young, and it was the coolest thing ever. I went back last year for an engagement shoot, and the place is still awesome.

I don't know why, but the kids loved playing with the magnet and iron sand.

Kayla is always up for a snack, especially if its fruit.

Happy 7th Birthday Kiddo.
