she LOVES her grandmas. loves them. she loves them more than she loves me, i think sometimes. always wanting to go see them. it might have something to do with the way they spoil her rotten. and the way they love her so completely in return.

just maybe.

  1. Love the photos . . . love the fact that McK calls her Mimi! When Reilly was a tot, he couldn’t say Grandpa, so my Dad ended up being Boppy. He’s been Boppy to my two kids, and now my sister’s two, as well! I love that!!

  2. my kids call my mom mimi too. the oldest grandchild started calling her that and it stuck. beautiful photos as always. i think mckenna looks just like her mimi.

  3. Aw..that’s so nice! I had such a special relationship with my grandma! Grandmas are awesome and she’ll carry the memories of her with her for a lifetime!

  4. all your children are just so beautiful and you capture them in such a way that makes me stare. for minutes and minutes and minutes. i call my husband in and say “look at these children that we don’t even know! aren’t they beautiful?!”

  5. AHHH I miss your Mom! When I saw that picture my heart leapt and I missed her!! Tell her I love her to pieces still and have many fond memories of her.

  6. Can you send me or post an address to get the jinky’s actions you use? I would love to purchase them, but can’t find the web addy when I’ve searched.

  7. i had to comment – my daughter, Makena, calls me ‘mimi’ – she is 17 months old and can say ‘mommy’ but is attached to the ‘mimi’-thing which drives my husband crazy as he can’t stop thinking of the “Drew Carey” character… i think it’s kind of cute although a little embarrasing in public when she calls it out! great captures!
