Owen is 5!

Owen loves the Avengers and had a lot of fun celebrating his 5th birthday!

Losing 1st Tooth!

Andrew has finally lost his 1st tooth at 7 1/2!  His tooth had been wiggling for a few weeks.  He came home from school that day with a tiny tooth pouch from the school nurse and his baby tooth inside.  He said, "I just started twisting it, and it feel out."  He was excited!

Go Tigers Go!

The weather was perfect, and the boys had a blast cheering on the Tigers at the football game!

EG is 8 months old!

Ella Grace is 8 months old!  She isn't quite crawling yet, but she can roll and scoot around on her bottom.  She says "ma ma" "bu ba" "na na" and "ya ya." She scrunches her nose when we smile at her, and she thinks it's so funny!  She is now taking 4 bottles, 3 jars of baby food, and some finger food each day.  Separation anxiety has started, so I have to avoid her if someone else is caring for her at church and at preschool.  She is happy as can be as long as she doesn't see me.  Ella Grace is such a joy, easy going, super smily, and just the most cuddly precious girl!  

 Daddy's little girl!

 Love her scrunchy little nose!

 This mama is loving some hair bows!

 She loves to just sit in the floor and play!

 Ready for church!

 We forgot our stroller at a birthday party, so she had fun in a rubbermaid bin!

 Love the cuddle time with her while she drinks her bottle!

Little Helper! (EG)

I love being able to work at the preschool where Ella Grace and Owen attend.  EG thought she was big stuff in mommy's office!

Ella Grace is 7 months old!  She has 4 teeth now, she is sleeping on her tummy, she's started using a sippy cup, and loves eating her baby food (especially the fruit).  She makes noises and smiles the whole time I feed her the mixture of bananas, mangos, and carrots.  

 Tiny pieces of bread and fruit

 She loves to be outside! 

 Grizzlies fan in training!

She thinks she's big stuff with her own cup :)

We had such a fun and busy summer!  We enjoyed time at home, the kids had a blast at their summer kids program on Tuesdays-Thursdays, and we just had fun spending time as a family!
