Brennan's first day

Brennan had his first day of 4 year old preschool today, so he will be going monday/wednesday/friday now. We are all glad to be back in a routine, and Brennan is so proud to be a big boy. Brrr, what a chilly day - wasn't his picture last year shorts and a tshirt?

5 months old

Today our baby girl is 5 months old. I am still loving every minute, I just can't get enough of her. She is such a blessing. Nadia loves to be up and a part of everything we do. She puts everything in her mouth now, including sucking on her toes (so cute), she grabs at everything near her, rolls all over the floor, looks for the toys she drops, and her favorite place is on mommy's hip. Just pulled out her new "office" today, and she thinks she's pretty cool in it (as seen above). Luv U baby girl. Good night, sleep tight.

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.
