park with the big kids

Addison!!!

Here's a great shot of Elie hanging out with her buddy Addison... Just 2 little girlies gettin into trouble. Oh, wait, this is just the beginning isn't it?? Riiiiight.

park in a tiara

My darling lady, you may be atimate about wearing your princess tiara—even to the park, but you have no fear when it comes to getting dirty, climbing jungle gyms, swinging like a monkey, and toughing it out with the boys, and all of this while you make sure you look your best. I love you.

...and she's OFF!

Here are some cute pictures from my lady's first day of school (early toddler program, pre-preschool). She's pretty much already a pro. Didn't even notice (or care) that I or her Daddy wasn't there! Her new teacher, Miss Sandra, let us know that she acted like she has been going to school everyday for months and no one would ever know it was her first day. So far, so good, whew!

(she's SHARING!)

weekend fun for Daddy's birthday

It may look like Tanner is accidentally yawing... no accident. And yes, that's a lot of flannel.

she's ready to go!

Earlier this month we took the fam for a little weekend get-away for Daddy's 40th. I threw him a big party in December but this was a nice cozy and relaxing way to start off the year for all of us. We went to our favorite Mexican restaurant, looked for duckies, took our time relaxing and walking down State Street, and stopped at every Harley and motorcycle shop on the way home (and there were a lot). Love you B, Happy Birthday xxoo

Do you see that hairdo? I guess on a duck it would be a featherdo?

My first little lady :)

Happy Birthday Jet!!

I can't believe Jet is already 2 years old! Elie and I were very lucky to meet Jet and his family when he was about 5 months old and Elie was 6 weeks (at our first mommy/baby yoga class). They really have been buds most of their life. He is now a big boy about to start pre-school and big brother to Oliver. Wow it goes fast... Jet you are one special guy and we LOVE you!
