Little Grace!

Kara and baby Grace came over on Saturday and we had such a nice visit! I can't believe how big Gracie is getting! She is so adorable! Check out her cute hat!

Hitching a ride...

Cousin Dominic decided to hitch a ride on Josie's wagon. It was so funny watching them! Dominic is almost two and twice as big as Josie, but that little girl pushed him all around the house! It was too cute!

Beautiful!

Check out Evie's hair...she did it herself! I think she did a pretty good job!

Bumpin 30!

Eric's Grandpa always used to say "I am bumping 80," which now has Eric saying that he is bumping 30 after this last birthday...we hope to be bumping 80 someday and be as happy as his grandparents!

Josie's 1st Birthday!

Isn't she so cute?!!

Yum!

Josie loved her cake!

I thought this picture was so funny! Apparently that is Evie's new smile!

The twins and Josie enjoying the pool!

I can't believe little Josephine turned one! I used to laugh when my parents would say, "it seems like yesterday that you were doing flips in the middle of the room," but now I totally get it! It does seem like yesterday when Josie arrived! This year has gone by so fast and I am so thankful that we were able to celebrate Josie's birthday with such wonderful friends and family!

Grandpa's Birthday

Pictures from Grandpa John's birthday...

Our little walker!

Ok, so I think I took this last week and since this video Josie has mastered the art of walking and is basically running, but I thought you would enjoy seeing her on the move. Not sure why the video uploaded like this, but it makes it even more interesting!

Fun in the Sun!

Evie and Josie absolutely love the water! They both love splashing and although we tell Evelyn to stop splashing her baby sister, Josie just cracks up! It is so much fun! I just love the pic of Josie...it just shows off her cute little chubby legs!

Ballet Class

Evie had her first ballet class last week and she did great! With only one small hiccup, she stayed in class the entire time and really enjoyed herself! I only caught the end of her solo, but I will post more video soon...

Check out the do...

I came home from work one day and babysitter Katie had done Josie's hair up in a little pony on top of her head! Seriously, one of the cutest things I have seen! Josie is getting so big! She is about to turn one! I can't believe it!

Soccer gear?

Owen, is this proper gear to play soccer? Aunt Megan, Uncle Ed, Owen, Emmett and Henry gave Evie soccer gear this year for her birthday. She absolutely loves it and is so excited to play soccer with them when they come to visit, but I was just wondering...do most soccer players wear skirts? I have a feeling this one might! :)

Big Girl Evie!

Evie is officially a big girl...well, has been for 3 weeks, but I am finally getting around to posting the pictures...to celebrate Evie's accomplishment of giving up her paci's, she was able to go to the Build a Bear store, where they only allow big girls to make bears! :) She was thrilled about being a big girl, until bedtime, but we made it through a rough week, and now it is smooth sailing. Well, kind of! She still asks for it everynight, but then says, oh yes, I gave those to the baby birds...will they give them back when they are done using them? She is so cute! We are so proud of our BIG girl!

Little Ballerina!

Evie has her first ballet class this week! She is so excited! I will send pics of the ballerina in action!

Prom pictures!

Meg, didn't know if you had seen any pics of prom, but thought I would post a few! Don't they look cute! :)

Evelyn's Birthday!

Ok, so I am so far behind it is not even funny...but here are a few pictures from Evelyn's 3rd birthday! She had so much fun at her party and wants to know when her next birthday will be! She is growing up so fast and just gets cuter everyday! Evelyn lives and breathes princesses right now, so of course she had a princess birthday party, with a house full of boys, but all the boys still enjoyed bouncing in the princess castle bounce house! :) The second pic is of Evie and my friend Erin's twins...they had fun playing together at the party!
