Photo Shoots Are Fun... NOT!

Usually we start out with the serious face...

Then...the cheesy smile...

Every once in awhile...we get a few precious photos...

Then there is Tessa...the paci gets in the way...

She thinks everything is a crack up...

She would rather yell and crawl VERY quickly than get her picture taken...

OK...no more...

The cutest I could get of the two of them...phew...that was exhausting!!!

Thanks Auntie Katie for the adorable matching outfits...YOU ROCK!!!! Can't wait to see you again!!!

My Brave Girl

Hannah had a scan on her kidneys yesterday to see if they were damaged at all by her infection in February. She was such a sweetie and SO BRAVE!!!

We had to go in the morning to have dye injected and she just cried a little bit for that. Then we had to go back in the afternoon and she had to have an IV and general anesthesia for the procedure. When I came back into the recovery room...she was all smiles. The nurses all commented on how sweet she was. I guess she asked for me once, they gave her a popsicle and then she was fine!!!

What a trooper!!!

SCHOOL DAYS!!!

Today was Benjamin's first day of Kindergarten...sob...sob...sob...

He was SO excited to start this new adventure! I am, of course, sad, but also happy to see what a sweet little boy he has become.








Benjamin with his friend Nathan from preschool. I hope they continue to be good buddies. Nathan is such a sweetie.

Here are his first two official assignments from school. This time last year, he didn't want anything to do with coloring, so I'm very proud at how far he has come! :)

If you look closely..."the frog was eating chocolate and got it all over his face". Benjamin has quite the imagination! :)
