Oh I LOVE those little bear suits - ha ha ha! I can't wait to see the babies in those.
ReplyDeleteSafe travels!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm in love with those owls. I really am.
ReplyDeleteMichael has promised to buy me owl crib bedding the day that we pass our homestudy. (fingers crossed)
Have a beautiful and memorable trip!
and the superman outfit? Love it. Michael has a superman shirt, and I had to buy a superman onesie a few weeks back for one of our kiddos.
I am grinning ear to ear here! Go git them babies!!!
ReplyDeleteWoot!!
Okay the bearsuits and the homemade owls - crazy awesomeness. Looooove them. (I wish the English language had like 50 words synonymous with and equally as meaningful as the word "love" right...)
ReplyDeleteADORE them. You.Are.Ready.
