This year Owen had his first day of 5 day preschool. With a summer birthday we decided to hold off on Kindergarten for a year, but still wanted something to challenge him. He's LOVING it. Ava started preschool two mornings a week. Also loving it - and so is mom.

First day of school 2010
This year Owen had his first day of 5 day preschool. With a summer birthday we decided to hold off on Kindergarten for a year, but still wanted something to challenge him. He's LOVING it. Ava started preschool two mornings a week. Also loving it - and so is mom.
BIrthday! Birthday!
This summer has been full of events, vacations, visitors. Three of the big events were the kids birthdays. Most recent first to least recent. Just going through the photos again and writing about them leaves me thinking, "how did we get here?" Do we really have a 5,3, and 1 year old?
The big day. Ruth turned 1. She has been so fun to watch grow. Life never stops moving with three kids and Ruth's first year has flown by. It's been really neat to watch her grow and discover her personality. She's a very sweet one who loves to laugh and will smile at anyone who looks at her. She's very curious and in to everything. She's just on the verge of walking. Her siblings can't get enough of her even from day one. We just love our Ruthie to pieces. Happy birthday baby girl.
The cake. One chocolate bunt cake and a personalized cupcake on top for the birthday girl herself.
And this is Ruth after the cake. Eat it up girl! You only turn one once.
What proud parents we are of our adorable Ruth. I never knew I could love all three so much, but my heart is so full of deep appreciation for each addition to our family.
For Ruth's birthday we were lucky enough to have my oldest brother and his family come for the weekend. He has three girls who are SO great with our kids. We love having them around.
And there we are.
Sweet, sweet Owen turned 5. He continues to be just as busy, caring, inquisitive, and fun-loving as ever. Happy birthday buddy!
Owen is all about super heros lately. Super hero talk all day, all week. Non stop!
Ryan rented a pontoon boat for the big day and we took it out on the lake. Owen was over the moon saying it was the best birthday ever. We were really happy the my sister Jill and her family ended up for the weekend and could come with us. Owen and his cousin Kylie are two peas in a pod.
Here is Owen and Kylie before they had to say their goodbyes.
Ava turned 3 this year. Still hard to believe.
Ava woke up to a set of flowers from her Dad. He was sweet enough to think of this on his own. One rose for every year. Too sweet.
Tah Dah! Ava's 3rd birthday cake. The whole party was a pink party in honor of the birthday girl herself. She LOVES anything pink! She's all girl for sure.
Ava absolutely loves skirts and dresses. It's a big day if I can actually convince her to wear shorts. Ryan's mom sent her the cutes dress and skirt. Ava was hugging them so excited.

Ava loves the doll house she got. Kept her busy for days. It was super cute to listen to her pretend with her play family and the things she'd say.
