toilet time

i did not stage this picture. she has learned from the best--her mother! i don't think i need to comment anymore.

out of bed sleepy heads!

in the morning i'll hear ada's voice just chatting away. when i go to get her up she's in owen's bed talking to him. it's so sweet. he just looks at her and smiles. she's a great big sister

happy boy

we say he has a special mouth for smiling!!!

my little rascals

these two are characters!!

getting caught up

it's been an eventful summer to say the least. owen was born in may, we have taken him back and forth from indy to riley and st. vincent, ada had to have stitches, lance got a new boss and new job and then went back to his old job with a new boss (that doesn't make a lot of sense but it works), i pumped my brains out with a double electric breast pump, and ada turns three. okay, that does it for now. school has started and maybe life will have a bit more structure. we are looking forward to owen's surgery, time with our beautiful three-year-old, and meeting new high schoolers in young life.
