Still here...

I don't even know what to say.  It's the end of May and our last post was in February.  I don't know how some of my friends find the time to sit down and post to their blogs each week.  I'd love to be able to do that, but it feels impossible. 

 Let's do a quick picture catch up as to what we've been up to the past three months. These are all out of order... 


Hannah Kate is now 8, almost 9 months old.  She is pure joy and a wonderful baby.  She is also toothless!  We've been waiting on teeth for 2 months now and nothing but lots of slobber, chew toys, a few fussy days thrown in there. Despite what she might say, or how she might act, Ava LOVES Hannah and has been a very good big helper. 

On Mother's Day, we had Hannah dedicated, and Mimi came up as she did for Ava...  5 years ago! (wow, time flies)

 

Ava also "graduated" from Pre-K.  They had a small carnival and I believe we came home with three stuffed snails, a fake snake (YUCK!), some temp. tattoos, candy, and other stuff.  She had a blast, but is incredibly excited for Kindergarten. 

 

  

Kindergarten Registration and Testing.

 We were picking colors to paint the hall...  can you guess which colors Ava picked out?

Most of the pictures are on my phone, but Ava got to experience the circus for the first time this year.  It was lots of fun, and she was incredibly spoiled by the whole experience.  From an adult's point of view, it was quite entertaining, and we had fun too.

 And a few extracurricular activities thrown in there as well. 

Now that summer is here, we hope to get outside a lot more.  The winter in the Burgh lasted much longer than it should have!  We have several projects that we are hoping to get done (painting, building a deck, tile work, etc.), and we want to squeeze in at least one trip to the lake... make that two!  So, we plan to stay busy this summer as usual.  Hopefully we can find time to update the blog with pictures so those of you who we don't see often, can see how we are doing. 

Now it's on to the next thing.  Have a great Memorial Day weekend!
