Another cousin to play with!


Don't we look so happy! (and blurry)


Happy 3rd Birthday Jacob!

the last month or so. take 1

Too cute.

We just love it when cousins come to play!!!


Annie turned One! Which deserves a post of itself.


Jacob loves jumping in the leaves and also does not like having his picture taken.


We had a fun bonfire with Grandma and Grandpa and even sang some songs.


We tried to fly a kite. We need to drive somewhere with more of an open field, Jacob is very discouraged by kite flying because it just doesn't really work at the park.


Annie just loves her dog and blanket. She grabs them out of the crib when I get her up. So cute, but could become a problem.


Loving the car. In. Out. In. Out. Drive. In. Out.


Before the neighbors party. Luckily Annie loved her costume.

We have been having such a fun time we forgot to blog.

annie's first shiner

Annie got her first black eye this week. the first day or two it was really swollen and now her eyelid is really purple and looks like she forgot to put on make up on her other eye. Poor girl. It has not stopped her at all from climbing on chairs and furniture though. She's a tough cookie.





don't mind her runny nose please, she is also getting her one year molars.

apple picking party

jacob is excited to have a birthday this week and start ecfe classes.
