Thank you Gramma Denno for the "uniform!" Kellan is TOTALLY about being a firefighter right now and the TV is only ever on "Fireman Sam." He loves to run out of the house to rescue someone or "drive" his firetruck (it looks exactly like MY CAR!!).

This was really Sean's first "project" (that I've had the nerve to try with him)...Just like cousin Eve's little pig. These were extras from the party...Sean saw them in the basement and wanted them both!! We made sure that Kellan got to decorate one and Sean really did do his own. He was a bit more interested in EATING the markers toward the end, but I'd say it was generally a success!

Thank you Erin and Julie for a really fun day at the beach!! It was wonderful to spend some time with you both!! We REALLY should do it again soon!!

XX Kellan, Sean - and Katie ; )

Sean Talking

**There will certainly be some speech therapy in this guy's future : )

Thinkin' of you Em : ) XX Miss us...See ya soon!!

I just think that this is a handsome (though un-smiling) face so I wanted to post it. He was REALLY tired in this pic...since we got rid of the soother/pacifier naps have been a battle...he's just an "early to bed guy" now!?! We've been taking little breaks from his glasses, but Sean really does wear them most of the time!!! Sometimes when he does not have his glasses on, it REALLY looks like he is controlling his eyes together...it is exciting to see!! It probably happens with the glasses as well, but it is not so easy to notice!! Please say lots of prayers that he will continue to make progress with his vision!!

XXOO Us

THANK YOU EM!!!!!

The boys got a gift today from Emily and it was AWESOME : )

Kellan was excited to get mail all the way from CA!!?

Sean was lovin' "Queen!!"

Thank you so much for the gift card. Kellan is really excited to buy lunch for his brother...he's SO BIG!!! Getting him to smile "normal" proved too much of a task, however ; )

Kellan decorated a box full of gifts for his new baby cousin EVAN CARL BARRY!! There are a few things from his (and Sean's) birthday party for Eve and a little something special for Granny and Granddad Barry...

The box is coming to you Granny and Granddad...we know that you know how to find the others to get their goodies to them...

Here's the proof of participation...he was SOOO PROUD of his handprints... ; )

Hello All,

Honestly, I feel like there is less time in the summer and even thought the days are longer - they speed by!!? We have been keeping very busy and I've not posted anything!!! SORRY about that! Lots of fun happening here. We got a fence in our back yard to contain Sean the escape artist...he loves it and it has made my life SOOOOO much easier (and taken a load off my mind)!! I could never take my eyes of Sean for a moment outside or he was headed toward the road...YEAH FOR OUR FENCE!! We've also been trying to keep up on the vision therapy exercises...I think that Sean is doing well and he tolerates all of it beautifully. The doctor told us to continue the vestibular activities and Sean LOVES rolling. Not sure that it is exactly what the dr. had in mind, but we've been heading down the the playground at the end of the street and rolling down a lovely grassy hill. Sean and Kellan have so much fun and get really tired out - It's GREAT!!

I've only taken the camera out a couple of times in the past two weeks, but I'll try to do better...here are a few of our pics...

Brothers...Kellan loves to "teach" Sean anything...

Kellan is the official "Cherry pitter" of the family...he is in charge ; )

Sean is his best customer

Remember this shirt Uncle Stephen? Fits just right!!

SOOOOO Precious!! XOXO

YEAH!! HE is here!! A BIG welcome to our new baby cousin!! We can't wait to come visit you!!! Congratulations Auntie Dee and Uncle Ciaran!!

XOXO Kellan and Sean

Thank you Auntie Jennifer for sharing your pictures!!
