July Column

This article ran 2 weeks ago. Just now getting a chance to post it since we're back from vacation.

Beach Day

We spent yesterday at the Beach House with Steve's parents. It was a gorgeous day, perfect weather, and so relaxing and nice. We did nothing but play in the water/sand, sit on the porch watching waves, and hang out. Couldn't ask for a better day.

They found a crab.

Sadly, a boater was lost in the ocean the night before. So the beach was crawling with search and rescue teams, divers, coast guard planes/boats. Very sad story, but made for interesting activity to watch while we were there.

Swimming with Daddy.

Ahhh..... relaxation!

Playing catch with Daddy.

Look at that form!

Red Sox

Took the kids for their annual visit to Fenway Park to watch the Red Sox. PERFECT weather - clear, sunny, 80 degrees. Everyone had a blast (except my Mom's side of the family, who are Padres fans... Red Sox won 14-5.)

June Column

Steve's particularly proud of this one. =)

Zach & Emily's Graduation

Zach & Emily graduated from Little Blessings Preschool tonight. I'm so proud of them, yet sad that our time at such a wonderful school has come to an end. I can't say enough great things about it.

Attitude much?

My "triplets".

Crazy faces.

We did it!

May Column

Here's my May column.

Spring

My final Mother's Day Brunch at Little Blessings Preschool.

Zach's T-ball team.

Zach - natural biker

Seriously, this kid is amazing me! He just got the training wheels off last night. I don't know if every kid picks it up this easily, but the confidence he has in less then 24 hours shocks me. Way to go!

Easter Column

I must have forgot to put this up, but here's my article that ran on Easter Sunday.

No Training Wheels

Steve decided to take the training wheels off the kids' bikes last night. Zach, the natural athlete, took to it immediately. Izzy was a little nervous, fell a couple times, but once she started trying again today after school, was much more confident. Emily - had no interest. She couldn't get it, and just told Steve to put the training wheels back on. Here's a glimpse. They spent maybe an hour last night for the VERY FIRST TIME, and this is as soon as they got home from school. We're mighty proud of how well Izzy and Zach are doing. =)

Like Father... Like Son. Need I say more?
