Sonny Acres Pumpkin Patch

The kids and I met Nonni and Poppi today for some pumpkins and fun at Sonny Acres. Emmett learned to say "horsey" and Gabs just had a blast as usual :)

Gabi is 4!

Happy birthday to our little lady. We had a ballerina birthday party for her girlfriends and then celebrated at home on the actual day. Gabi was thrilled with her birthday this year. After all of the festivities were over she asked when she'll be 5!...mom needs a year to recover :)

Last day of Sunset pool

Gabi and Poppi enjoyed the last day of the pool together. Our little swimmer had a wonderful summer at the pool.

Gabi dentist

Gabi and I had our dentist appointments today. We are proud to announce we are cavity free! We are even more proud to announce that Gabi came home and decided to throw away all of her pacis because the dentist said they were bad for her teeth! Hip...hip...hooray!!!!!!

Gardening

Gabi LOVES helping Bill pick tomatoes from his plants. Wish she liked eating them too :)

Fish fish

Our little Gabi went from being afraid of being splashed to a little underwater swimmer this summer. We are so proud of her. She's our little mermaid!

Emmett's 12 month appointment

Our little man isn't so little anymore! He's healthy, happy and adorable. Here are his percentiles...
22 lbs. 9 oz. (47th percentile)
31 1/2 inches tall (93rd percentile)
17 7/8 inch head (23rd percentile)

Happy birthday to Emmett!

Happy 1st birthday Emmett! I really can't believe my baby is one already. Where did the past year go?! We had a wonderful celebration. Thank you to all of our family for making it just a festive occasion.

Stacey's wedding

What a wonderful celebration. This was also Gabi's first wedding. She loved the dresses, fancy drinks, food and dancing!

Balloons

While walking home from dinner we stopped at the balloon man. Here are pictures of the happy kids with their balloons...by the time we went the additional few blocks home no one was as happy. (wings popped, Emmett used his as a weapon, etc. ) ;)

The pool

After a couple of months at the pool I finally took a few pictures. My little swimmers...

New swingset

We went in for a toddler swing and left with a playset :) Well, at least Gabs and Emmett are ecstatic! A BIG thank you to Billy and Poppi for making this happen...thank you!!!!!
