Some things in life are more important than the Red Sox. This group qualifies as one of them!

hawaiian dress

The kids had a chance to go to Hawaii for Spring Break. They brought Faith back this darling Hawaiian dress. I got a darling fish bracelet with tons of different colors on it. Mike got a Hawaii t-shirt and some golf balls. Thanks kids for bringing these surprises home. We love them!

The kids enjoyed feeding Faith in her new booster chair this past weekend. And as you can tell from the pictures - Faith enjoyed it as well! Chelsea called Tanner the "Baby Whisperer" and she is right.

uncle rob

Mike's youngest brother Rob (27 years old) was diagnosed with Leukemia on Wednesday evening. Our family is struggling to get our minds around the challenge that lies ahead. We love Rob and plan to be there with him every step of the journey. Rob has a very infectious smile and a witty sense of humor and know that this will help along the way. Rob will start his chemotherapy today along with a bone marrow biopsy. Please keep Rob in your thoughts and prayers and close to your heart as we take things one day at a time. We love you Rob.

go directly to jail

Faith is crawling and very very mobile so we had to buy a gate to keep her upstairs and not falling down the stairs. Coleman took these pictures of her "in jail"!

I think she is giving Coleman a pouty face so he opens the door and sets her free!

girl talk

Faith loves to play with the kids' cell phones. And they are so good to share with her. Even if it means the phone gets chucked now and then! Here are Faith and Maddy having some girl talk!

Faith cannot wait until she is big enough to play! And we cannot wait to kiss and love her more. She has cute light colored hair and it may be curly. Time will tell. We love you already Paisley.

PlaY TiMe

Tanner loves to play with Faith and Faith loves to play with Tanner. This past weekend they were crawling together and racing. Oh wow - Faith thought that was about the best thing ever! They have such a fun time together and you cannot but help laugh when you watch them.

HoMeWorK

Faith is trying to help Coleman with his homework. Or maybe Coleman is letting Faith sit with him while he contemplates DOING his homework. Hmmm.....

happy birthday to morgan

Today Morgan turns eleven. The big double one!!!
Five things about Morgan that we LOVE:
  1. Morgan is a very kind person. She is so sensitive to others.
  2. Morgan is always willing to help around the house.
  3. Morgan has beautiful shiny brown hair and pretty blue eyes.
  4. Morgan enjoys playing basketball and softball and is very athletic. And she is not afraid to play against boys. You go girl!
  5. Morgan knows sign language! And she learned most of it on her own.

We love you Morgan. Thank you for being such a wonderful daughter, sister, and friend.

faith + brooklyn = share?

We got together for dinner on Sunday with Dave, Chelsea, and Brooklyn. Faith and Brooklyn are 9 weeks apart and this is the first time that they have been able to "play" together. Isn't it interesting that the most exciting toy is the one that the other baby is holding. Share. Let's Share! We really need to get together more often so our girls can practice SHARING! We love you guys!
