Emma, almost 5 months old

Auntie Rose made this knit penguin for Emma and we were lucky enough to find a shirt to match. Thanks Auntie Rose.

You can see our little girl is always smiling. From the moment she wakes up until we put her in her crib for the night she's happily sharing smiles.

Heidi's 40th Birthday

The boys came in to my bedroom the morning of my birthday wearing T-shirts they had decorated themselves. Marcel decided to join in the fun so they boys made a shirt for Emma too so everyone would have one. At first I was upset they ruined the T-shirts but I kept my mouth closed. They were tickled with their neat idea. The color all came out in the wash anyway.

Sweet Emma at 16 weeks

We are more in love with little Emma as time goes on. She's beginning to smile and coo until she warms your heart all over.

Strong Winds = Falling Trees

Oh my, our wood shed has an owie! We were tucked in our beds sound asleep when the tree fell. Didn't hear a thing. Should be all fixed by next week.

Tree Climbing Boys

The kids and I went on a long walk/bike ride and upon returning home they shot up a tree. I had no idea how high they really were until they called me over to take a photo. Wow! I've got some real tree climbers on my hands. No fear of heights in this family.

Marcus' 10th Birthday party

Marcus and two other friends celebrated their birthday at our house last Sunday. We had a football theme and handed out football helmet and football cookies. Unfortunately it rained the entire day and we were unable to play a real game of football. Marcus was thrilled with his Brandon Roy t-shirt and Patriots blanket he received from Grandma and Grandpa.
