Busy

We made it home from vacation last Monday. Had a great time (wish I'd taken a picture of our luggage on top of our van). We went to the Newport Aquarium (that's where the picture was taken) and the Cincinnati Zoo. Plus we saw several of our trach family friends.

Alli saw the orthodontist last week. She'll be getting braces in August. I think she's anxious to get them.

Packing...

...and more packing!! We're heading out in the morning for Cincinatti, so today has been busy with last minute errands, laundry and packing. As if it's not hard enough to pack for a family of 6, include a child with exponential amounts of medical supplies and a newborn. Ugggh...what were we thinking??

Actually we're looking forward to seeing old friends once again.

New floor!!

Jeremy's been busy working on this summer's project...new kitchen and dining room floors!! Here's a picture before:

And here's a picture after:

All the animals are enjoying the new floor too.

Brown cookies

Most people call them no-bake cookies.

We like to call them brown cookies.

I don't even know who started it...maybe Scott, maybe one of the girls.

Either way, they are a favorite at our house! I had promised the girls I'd make some before they went to their dad's. I think there are only 4 left!! No wonder I can't lose the baby weight!

Summer fun

Is there anything better than hanging out in your swimsuits all day, waiting for the ice cream truck to drive by? I don't think so!!!!

*****

Today was Nate's first day of summer school. I think he liked having something to do during the day. Mom and Dad just aren't that fun!

starting out...

I thought a blog might be a nice way to keep our family and friends updated on our lives. I'm totally new at this so we'll see if I can keep up with it, and 4 kids!!!

Today was Delaney's baby dedication at church. She slept the whole time and looked so pretty in her pink dress. We had lots of family there to support us, but unfortunately Grandma & Grandpa Bowman are travelling most of June so they couldn't be with us.

Also, today is Delaney's 2 month birthday!!
