August/September 2015

 Funny how having double the kids makes things like blogging really fall by the wayside.  Here are these two at Pop Pop and Grandma's in their old wagon in late August.

 The 3 older cousins.

 Just a sweet moment.

 C started 2nd grade the last day of August.  He was not reading well as of last spring.  But, WOW, he has come a long way since!  We tested his reading level on some online reading assessments and they are placing him in 3-4 grade.

 K wanted no part of back to school photos and she let us know in no uncertain terms.

 So, Brother helped her out.

 Today we took some 18 month old photos of Katie.

 And we got some 7 year old shots of Cole, too.

 Even a couple sibling shots.  Not perfect but we will take it!

 A week or two ago.  Fashionista! My old shoes!

 The big reader.  He has finished this Primer reader and is onto an even harder book for school!

 Mastering the shape sorter.

 Silhouettes of the kids now hang in our entryway!  Love it!

Last night was a Super Blood Moon.  I took some photos from start to finish. It was fun!

Favorite thing to watch on tv (only thing she watches) is Praise Baby Made to Worship

Likes her shape sorters and sit and spin.  Also likes her shopping cart.  Loves books.

Cutting her eye teeth, but before that I would say she is an awesome eater even though she is teeny.
