Ch-ch-ch-changes!! New site!

So this blog went crazy... and all the photos and are gone :-( I'm pretty sad, but I'm still trying to fix it... cross your fingers that I can recover everything.

Here's the GOOD NEWS though! The reason this blog went bad is because I got a brand spankin' NEW BLOG/WEBSITE! Yay! Check it out at www.amandapatrice.com and be sure to add it to your google reader, bookmark page, facebook favorites, and whatever else you use to keep updated on your favorite blogs.

I thought it was about time my business had a look that was more "ME"... so what do you think? Hop on over and check it out. And stay tuned for more blog posts... I'm going to upload my last few and have tons of new photos to share with you in the next couple weeks :-)

{ my kiddos! }

I knew I'd be missing these little faces once the reality of not being their nanny sunk in, so I decided I'd better snap some photos. On my last day I braved the summer heat and the chaos of taking 6 kids out in public by myself and forced them to pose for photos... and now I understand how moms can turn into psychos during photo shoots LOL.

It was tough and I think we all had a meltdown at some point (Zane's glasses broke, Parker didn't like hugging the other kids, Seth kept knocking everyone down... ahhhh!), but it was SO WORTH IT! In my first week working from home it sure is good to see these silly faces... I love them :-)

Aren't they all absolutely gorgeous? Josh and I are spoiled with ridiculously cute kids... in fact, Josh says if our kid doesn't come out of the womb cute he's pushing it back in. Whatta jerk, huh? LOL

My only rule was for their parents and that was that they could wear whatever they wanted... I wanted to remember them just the way they were right then.

I can't decide which of these next 3 is my favorite... they're all so fun! Kids love them some jumping...

Baby Olivia is here and she's pretty much the cutest... but then again, her big sister is pretty much the cutest, too. Don't believe me? Here's evidence:

I love sleepy baby lips!

Big sister love!

Natalie, I heart you

Mom wasn't expecting to be in photos... but she looked so pretty I made her do it!

Sweet dreams :-)
