Dental days : )

So sorry that we've been missing in action. We've loved all of your photos cousin Eve...so sorry we've not been in touch (we will write over the weekend)! Momma's been really busy, but she had to post tonight 'cause SEANIE HAS TEETH! Well, kinda. When Momma got home from school, she was playing with Sean and thought she saw a little something different in his mouth. Sure enough...when she felt in there she noticed that his two bottom teeth are just peaking out. There are bumpy little bits there, where there were only gummy-gums yesterday! Yeah Sean - you are soooo big!!

Have a good night all,
XOXO KELLAN


This pic is too blurry to tell that the little teeth are there - but they are!

busy boys....
Maybe it was the chewing on Grover yesterday that brought the teeth out?!

Too cute not to share!

I LOVE being home with my boys...it's usually a busy day on Saturday, trying to play "catch-up" so this morning has been really fun. A nice cup of tea and hanging out with my boys! SO SWEET!

It's still early (only 9:30 AM) so we still have the day ahead. You can get in a lot of cuddle time when you start at 5:30 AM : ) Hope you are all having a great day!

XOXO us

We weren't going to post today, but I couldn't let it go without saying that we are thinking of Carl on this day especially.
We are remembering you daddy, today and always,
Kellan and Sean
Sweet dreaming...


...what a gift!

Thank you for these blessings. XOXO

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes. It was a really nice day. Aunt Kathy and Poppa came to visit with Gramma Denno and Gramma Baker. We went out for Chinese food (Kellan LOVED it) and then came home for cake and ice cream. Kellan didn't want to eat the cake, but he loved blowing out the candles for mommy!

Love you all, Katie

No cake for Seanie...Just boring old yogurt! He didn't seem to mind though ; )


What a great helper boy Kellan is. XOXO


Thank you Em and Erin for the BEAUTIFUL flowers!! They are SO pretty! I can't get over it! They smell really wonderful too! You two are the greatest. We can't wait for our visit! We'll bring the stuffing (especially for you Erin...is that joke old yet? ; ).

The colors are really amazing!

SOOOO Pretty!!

I've not been very good at all about posting. Sorry, we are keeping quite busy though. Here are a couple of shots for now.
Relaxing on Sunday Morning...

and making pancakes.

A shot from a busy Monday night.
Again with the camera color issues...but love those blue eyes!

We didn't take too many pictures today. It looks pretty nice in the shots, but it was REALLY windy and kinda rainy all day. I hoped to recreate the "in the leaf" shots that we had of Kellan (see October '07 -- so cute!) in the pumpkin suit two years ago...Sean would have had a very wet bottom if I tried (and...he's not really sitting up yet). He's still super cute!
XOXO Us
Daddy would have loved to see his little Pumpkin and Thomas the Train tonight! We were missing him...

This is the last time that Sean will be able to wear this (one of my favorites from Auntie Jennifer) so we had to do the comparison - NOW!

XOXO Happy Sunday!

Here are a few pics from the last few days. We've been busy...but it's been good!

Kellan likes to go to sleep with a toy and sometimes his tent...he played in bed for a while tonight before "passing out."


Look at all there is to love of this little man...so cuddly!!!


Kellan started to turn on the light when it's time for bed, so I dug out this little lantern toy that I've had forever. He likes it...but still turns on the BIG light to look at books...not a battle I'm gonna pick right now...


SUPER BABY!!


All about mail today...this morning we brought a birthday package to the Post office to mail to cousin Eve. (We hope you get it in time for your first Birthday Eve!! - We are very excited for you...so excited, in fact, that we forgot to wrap part of your gift...oops!) And...this evening, Kellan and Sean got a spooky -- but fun (and noisy) Halloween card from Em and Erin ; ). Kellan loved getting mail...very fun, thank you so much!! XOXO



A bit of play time before bed (of course they don't both look at the same time).

Hello All,

We had a very nice weekend. We discovered (actually the Bishops did the discovering) a great little farm (Breezy Maples) right here in town. We visited on Saturday and...guess who forgot the camera? Well, you'll have to take my word for it that it was really fun and we all enjoyed it very much. Kellan got to sit on a pony - although he didn't make the 3 year old minimum to ride. We went on a hay ride and through a corn husk tunnel. Fall fun for sure!

Here are a couple of pics from tonight as we got dressed to go to Crista's birthday party. Thank you Uncle Ciaran and Auntie Dee for the stylish clothes! Many compliments were heard tonight : )

 

 
Sean does have a few little scrapes on his nose. One of them was self inflicted...the other two were caused by an overly helpful big brother...an accident of course.
