Doughnut Run

John took the oldest two on a much needed doughnut run this Saturday.  We're a family of sweet-tooths and nothing brings out the smiles like Krispy Kreme.  The pictures are just making me hungry! 

Here are just a few more cute pictures of the kids.

 

James takes his dress-up and pretend battles pretty seriously.

First Day of School

These are a few pictures of Tori on her first day of 3rd grade!  Tori was so excited - this is the first year she is actually going to the same school that she did last year.  She was very happy to have friends in her class.

James and Ellie say goodbye to Tori - they're going to miss having her around during the day.

James didn't start until the next week, but below is a picture of James on his first day of preschool.  He was so excited to go back - this time 4 days a week instead of just 2.  James was really happy to have his friend Parker go with him this year.

1 Month Old

Weight: 9 lb 1.2oz - 66%

Length: 22 inches - 94%
(These are actually his two week measurements, but we didn't have a 1 month check-up, so they'll have to do.)

We love our sweet little baby Henry so much!  He loves to be held and all the kids love doing anything with him.  He's getting to be a better sleeper and is really a good baby. It helps that he's just so cute!

John's always good at capturing fun pictures. ;)

Party at Sciworks

 James was invited to a birthday party at a really fun science museum by us.  He had a blast - especially getting to go alone with Dad!  First he loved fishing (probably could have stayed there all day).

 Next, he wanted to try his hand at surgery.

He had never ridden one of these things before.  John was impressed at how quick he picked up and was just cruising along in no time.

 They finished things off by building a gigantic tower - pretty awesome day for James.

 

This is just a picture of Tori, James and Ellie randomly decided to be turtles.



Random kid pics

Here are all the kids doing some of their favorite things:

Henry is chilling out and watching the show.

Ellie loves to try and be silly like the big kids (she's putting her finger through her pancake to eat it).

James lives to try and make others laugh.

Tori is our sweet little mommy.

James is definitely our superhero!

summer Ellie

Just a few pictures of Ellie enjoying the back yard this summer. :)
