I really like this picture. Jordan has her hand on Brendan's head. It's very sweet'

moped replied: Oh those are great - how nice!!!!!!

I like all of them!!!

How did you/he get Jordan to actually smile etc???

MomToJade&Jordan replied:
I'm not really sure. I know from the past that the photographer has things on hand to make a child smile. Jordan really likes to get her pic taken though so she's easy. Their Dad didn't take them to get these done though. His wife did. All by herself. Talk about a handful.

lovemy2 replied: Beautiful pictures...so Branden is their step brother???

MomToJade&Jordan replied:
Yeah he is their step-brother.

Mommy2BAK replied: Aww they are so pretty. I love the one of Jordan in black and white!

redchief replied: Ahem! What have you done with the babies? Those little girls are too big to be Jade and Jordan!

Kaitlin'smom replied: awwww those are great, and wow his wife did this and you got to order some, wow impressive. anyway the girls are beautiful, its funny when I streighten Kait's hair it looks just like Jade's

MomToJade&Jordan replied: Actually she had them put on a CD. I could actually print these out and send them the quality is so good. She sent them to me this morning.

Danalana replied: Beautiful kids
I lvoe the one where Jordan has her hand on his head, too...very sweet.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: That was very sweet of her to have the pics taken. The outfits are beautiful...did she choose those, too? I'm in LOVE with red! Your girls are so gorgeous!!!! Jade is just drop dead pretty and will be a total knockout with that blonde hair...like I told Cary about K,...lock er up!! Jordy has the prettiest smile!! These really are great pictures!

MomToJade&Jordan replied:
LOL! No that was my doing. I packed those just in case they were going somewhere nice.

Thanks everyone. Seeing these really makes me wish they were here. They will actually be heading to WV on the 22nd. She has to go back to work, so the girls will be with Memaw and Pepaw sooner then I thought.

Kaitlin'smom replied:
wow that was really nice of her

lisar replied: Those are great pics. I love the black and white one. And that was very sweet of her to let you have some.

TANNER'S MOM replied: Very cute pic. I love the dresses too. It's good they get to see the brother. I know the circumstances weren't the best, but you are Great!!!

CantWait replied: So cute. I love those dresses.
That was very nice to get those done.

Cece00 replied: very cute pics.

so I have to ask- how awkward is that situation? Like how is the stepmom with the girls? does the stepmom know what happened with your husband? do you get along with her? does she like the girls?

sorry, i am just really curious about that, feel free not to answer if that is too uncomfortable for you.

MomToJade&Jordan replied:
It is different, but not that awkward. She really loves the girls and is the one who is taking care of them for the most part. She's the one he left me for so she does know what he did. In a funny way I find it easier to talk to her then to him. I will never forget what happened, but God would want me to forgive so that is what I'm trying to do. I know now that I'm better off without him.

mom21kid2dogs replied: They are so adorable. Both look great but the camera really loves Jordan!

HuskerMom replied: What nice pictures! They all look adorable!

gr33n3y3z replied: good pics

redplaydoh replied: Oh I love the first picture, that's SO sweet... your girls have gorgeous smiles!!

Cece00 replied:
Well, you know, I think you have a lovely attitude about that situation. Good for you. I dont know that I could be quite so generous.

3xsthefun replied: Those are really great pictures! They are adorable!

A&A'smommy replied: They are so beautiful!!!!

MommyToAshley replied: Wow... the girls are absolutely georgous!!!

I can imagine the situation is awkward, but you are doing the best thing for the girls by remainnig civil with them. You are such a great Mom!!!

Hang in there, they'll be home soon.
