This waterfall sounded so beautiful!

Kellan had SO much fun fishing with his Uncle Stephen and Granddad! They are VERY patient!!

I'll give you three guesses who was mad that he couldn't go fishing!!

We are VERY excited to spend a long weekend with Granny, Granddad, Uncle Stephen and Auntie Stacy!! Can't wait to see you all! What a WONDERFUL idea to send the card...now the boys know what they have to look forward to!

XXOO Katie and the boys

HAPPY FIRST DAY OF PRE-K KELLAN PATRICK!!!

Look at these CrAzY kids...poor Gramma Denno...that Sean is a big 'ole goof...and a BOLD one too!! XXOO

Kellan's first day of school was a BIG SUCCESS!! He loves it ; ) And Gramma Denno made it through without tears!?

My Movie

We tried to capture Sean's fake cry...it is super cute and he snaps out of it in an instant ; ) The phone rang...thus the quick exit...

Sean was missing his brother tonight while Kellan is spending the night at Gramma Denno's house...little stinker!!! XOXO

We went to Kellan's new school today for an orientation. He did really well...he seems SUPER excited to get started!! His first day will not be until September 12th...we will be sure to post more pics. Say a prayer for Gramma Denno that she can bring him without crying ; )

XXOO US

Here is Kellan with his 2 Pre-K teachers...they are wonderful and I know he is going to LOVE SCHOOL!!
A rare Momma photo...errrr...

Kellan's school is right at the end of the street, he couldn't wait to get there...he took off running ; )

Here are some pics from the last 2 days. I can do NOTHING with Picasa and it is very frustrating?! It won't let me post any pics, so I have to do it the "hard" way?! Enjoy these!!

We are feeling very sad that Em's flight home was cancelled because of the weather, but we hope that you can plan to come home soon!

XXOO Us

SO HANDSOME!!

I guess that apples taste better when eaten from the table!?

Kellan loves all the projects that you sent Auntie Jennifer and Eve!! There were so many, that we are still working on them!! This one was VERY SCARY!! ; ) XXOO

Here are some pics from yesterday! I finally get a new computer and then Picasa won't let me post for some reason...errr!! Well, enjoy these just the same!

XXOO Katie and the boys

**Sean's glasses are "in the shop" at the moment...he is getting new lenses...

For the fans that I have disappointed...We DID get a NEW COMPUTER since ours totally gave up!! Things are running much more smoothly with posts now (with the exception of the children's cooperation - of course!!) XXOO US

Happy Anniversary Granny and Granddad!! We love you and hope that your day is VERY special!!

XXOO Kellan, Sean

P.S. Momma wishes you a very happy day too!! XXOO

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!!
