First grader

Mr Kobe is in first grade this year - all day, every day. Kobe is so excited to play on their new playground, and he got 5 new students in his class! We are all happy to be back in a routine, and brennan is loving his mommy time.

Vacation 2011 lonn/lucy's

Wow, where does the time go - 2 weeks ago already, we headed up north to troy's aunt and uncle's home on the lake, whom opened their home, and their whole vacation week to us for the second year in a row. Once again, we had a blast, and it couldn't have been more perfect with having a baby to tend to, and the privacy of our own little cabin. The boys had so much fun, swimming, boating, fishing, waterbiking, go cart riding, gator driving, collecting acorns, water tubing behind the boat, and the list goes on! Thank you lonn and lucy - you are such generous, laid back, wonderful people.

4 months old . . .

. . .And cuter than ever. Nadia is now 13 lb 2 oz, and still right about average for height and weight both. She's nawing on everything now, starting to squeal, and sitting up better and better every day. She definitely doesn't want to be left out.

Photoshoot in July

Thought it was time for a nadia update. She's still doing awesome! She's started grabbing with both hands any toy you put in front of her, she smiles and coo's and giggles all the time, and her latest is sticking her tongue out when she smiles (reminds me of bren), she just loves watching the boys and when they talk to her, and wants to be part of everything including when we eat - she's even starting to grab her toes (my fav)! I just can't get enough, she is just so dang adorable!

Harry in DC

Yeh, daddy is home, we are so happy to have him back, but "harry" had to make one last stop before coming home. At the white house, of course. The boys sure have an amazing daddy, with an amazing job. We are blessed in so many ways.
