Visit with Nana

On our Seattle trip we had to go visit our favorite Nana. 

Nana and Cate


So sweet



Ben's 4th Birthday

Ben's 4th birthday party!

Batman plates, cups, napkins, bat rings, bat whistles, batman masks

The bat cave has lots of cobwebs.

Batman cake

Ben and Lucas






Actual birthday with a yummy breakfast.

At Grandma Vicki's


Lucky boy more gifts



And more cake!



Love this boy to death. He loves his sisters and wants nothing more than to be Daddy's shadow. He is wild and tests my patience daily but is so sweet and gives the best hugs and kisses. Our lives would not be complete without his rambunctious silliness.


Dog pile on Daddy


Sweet baby Cate




Getting strong, lifting her head

Back Yard and Sister Love

Produce from our back yard, yum.

Fall wreath I made from grass and other foliage from behind our yard.



Sister love. Trying to capture how much Abi adores Cate. Abi calls her little precious.

Today Cate is 1 month old!

She's our little angel 



Love the blond peach fuzz







She's posing for this one


This sweetie is all grown out of her newborn clothes and diapers and has officially had her first big diaper blow out. She has yet to stay a night in her crib but I think her nights cuddling with us are numbered.

Two weeks ago was Cate's first trip to the lake.

Somersaults in the grass

Abi loving Cate

This was last weekend, only at the lake is it acceptable to drink a glass of wine at 1pm.

Jet ski rides





At Vin de Lac -one of favorite wineries. Cate's first winery visit. (pictures from my phone pardon the poor quality) 

Ben just wanted to dance to the band.
