oh how happy hour has changed...

nanny knows how to do it right..... with cocktails and crayons! (ok, apple juice for the kids.... but they call it their 'wine') :)

Another one bites the dust!

Maya pulled out her own tooth with dental floss last night. The picture is a little scary but seeing her come out of the bathroom with her tooth on a string is something I'll never forget.... and now neither will you! :)

she's 1 month old already!!

She's ready!

Soccer starts today and Maya's sooo excited!!!

lazy morning :)

the day has arrived...

this tooth has been loose for a year now! i hoped it would stay in until lola was born for picture purposes... and it did..... until the day we got home from the hospital. nanny pulled it out with dental floss!!! it's not the prettiest thing but she sure does love having a hole in the front of her mouth!!

sneak peek...

a little preview of what's to come in ms. lola's birth announcement... but the REAL images will stay a surprise :)

She's here! She's here!

Lola Jane was born July 6th at 7:52pm! We are loving every second with her. She is a very laid back baby and seems to be in love with her big sisters already. We feel so lucky to have 3 beautiful and healthy girls :)

happy july 4th!

happy july 4th! we had a great day yesterday during all of our neighborhood festivities. the girls rode in the annual parade with their decorated bikes, we went to dinner at auntie shannon's house and came back to our neighborhood for some fireworks. it would have been nice to have our newest addition here (notice gigantic belly behind ava's face in one pic)..... but apparently she is taking her sweet time! :)
