8 great years!

Happy Anniversary to us!

Growing up

This picture makes me feel like my kids are growing up too quick. Carter is almost 7, Gabs just turned 4 and Nate is almost 2. Carter told me the other day that Nate is too old to be a baby but too young to be out of diapers. It's true! He's not a baby anymore!

Just Dance

Nate loooooves to play games on the Wii (or the "Weed" as Gabby says). His favorite is Just Dance and he does pretty good at busting a move. Please excuse the pics of the shirtless, dancing baby...it's just how we roll at our house.

Ja-Ja & Mamy

After our last visits to Mesa, Nate cannot stop talking about Ja-Ja and Mamy (Jack and Amy). He still talks a lot of nonsense, jabber talk but I will hear Jack and Amy pop up in his conversations randomly :) Playing with cousins in the backyard
Jack's a little jealous of Nate's sucker and Nate's trying to act like he doesn't notice

A quick smile from Jack

Kisses from Auntie Amy

Halloween '10

We had a bunch of wild animals join us this year for Halloween: a little lion
a gorgeous giraffe

a magnificent monkey

and their zoo keepers. We only went trick-or-treating down one street and still had full buckets!

Sister, Sister

Gabby was showing me how she can buckle her car seat: "You snap this one here and this one here, there! I'm safe and snout!"

Carter came home from school yesterday and gave me a big hug: "I just missed you and I was a little homesick today." About 20 minutes later..."Okay, I'm a little schoolsick now."

You never know what these two will say!
