Random Pictures over the last while...

Here's to playing catch up.  I've also decided I need to take more pictures, especially of Annie and Peter.  With them in school I'm still constantly snapping them of Tyler and Kate, but I need to pull the camera out more when they get home...

 Jenny surprised the kids with a last minute trip recently.  They were THRILLED!!!
We've had a lot of fun at the Arboretum - hiking around and riding bikes around - it's been a fun place to go!
 Tyler still loves being by Annie as she practices.  Annie is so good about helping him enjoy it, but sometimes I wish he wasn't so interested so we could just get on with practicing!
 Summer fun...

 Here we are camped out at the Chicago Air and Water show - we LOVE it!  This year was no exception
 Annie and Kate walking along the beach downtown


 Tyler sporting some shades...

 We also went camping over Labor day - so much fun and it really deserved a post of it's own, but oh well!  Better to add a few pictures than none at all!

 This fire picture is in honor of Peter - the best part about camping, to Peter, is the constant fire.  The kid loves building them, keeping them going and doesn't even mind collecting sticks.  Luckily he's also pretty good about obeying fire rules. :)


 Love Robert's hammock!

 Out on a walk near our house...

And we'll end with a soccer picture - Tyler's a good little cheerleader... he'll walk around kicking the ball, it's pretty cute.  However, you can see by the coat that it's been cooling off, time for soccer to end ;)

Hope you are having a great fall!

Speedster Tyler

More amazing speed-skills...for a one-year-old...

And then some older footage of the days when he'd drive more conservatively...via the steering mechanism.

A Cute Video of Tyler...or is it?

We finally had the chance to look at our pictures from our camping trip over Labor Day weekend and came across this treasure.  Robert was trying to capture Tyler being cute but was "interrupted"....


It's classic Kate, don't you think?  Love it!

Back to School

Last week the kids headed back to school - I can hardly believe the rate at which summer flew by!  We had a great time this summer with tons of hot weather so with back to school and fall upon us, I'm really quite excited for cooler weather and the fun that fall brings. 

On with the back to school pictures!

 The kids were up pretty early - there was plenty of time for lots of playing...Tyler looks SO MUCH like Peter did at that age.
 Don't you love the scowl Tyler is sporting in this picture?  Yeah, he was sad they were headed back to school - that's my philosophy anyway....  In truth, he's been busy perfecting this little scowly face.  It's hilarious and irritating at the same time...
 Much better with the smile in this one!
 Robert walked with us to drop the kids off - it's always fun when Dad comes along for the walk!



 Peter has Annie's teacher from last year (she switched grades) - we thought she was fabulous so we are really happy about that!

Random Pictures from the last little bit





Her favorite place to nap - the stroller.  She goes hard and would frequently fall asleep on the walk to school.  I think everyone at school got used to her being asleep when I arrived.


Tyler loves the piano!  When Annie practices he'll sit and listen if he's in his high chair - if he's on the ground he'll get over there and start tapping away at the keys on the end.

WHOOPPPEEE!  Does summer get any more fun?  I think not!









Peek-a-boo anyone?




Have I mentioned how this kid has everything he could ever possibly want or need brought right to him?  Popsicle?  Drink? :)
