I am 5!

Our sweet little Ella is 5. That's right, 5! A whole hand. This is a big year. Five is a big kid now. Sigh, seems just like yesterday she was a baby. They aren't kidding when they say they grow up fast. She is sweet, caring, & full of laughs. She loves princesses & has a song or knock knock joke for every occasion. Happy 5th Birthday, Ella!

A February day at the park!

For the 1st time since Ella was born, we didn't have snow on her birthday. We had the most beautiful 50 degree winter day & spent it playing at the park & having ice cream. She got to spend her birthday swinging on the swings and had the BEST birthday ever!

Birthday girl at school!

I am 2!

Our little boy is growing...29.5lbs & 36inches. He is ornery & loving, hates sleep, & loves to snuggle. He can kick a ball with the best of them and loves to sing his ABCs. He makes us laugh & keeps us on our toes. Happy 2nd Birthday, John!

Fall Pics

We had our annual falls pics taken up at Oglebay.  They are amazing and I can't wait to share them with you but...you'll have to wait for a Christmas card to see the best of the best.  Here are a few to hold you over...

 This boy is ornery.

 As you can see, it was a very active session...

Fall Fun!- Leaves

I'm sure Daddy didn't have as much fun as the kids (especially when the wind started blowing the leave the opposite direction of the leaf blower) but who doesn't love a good jump in the leaves!
