September Re-cap

Among other things that seem to fill our days, here is what I actually took pictures of:
Gentry is starting to fill out and become a little 'chunky monkey' - love it.

Took the kids to the beach for a Sunday stroll. It was beautiful and fun trying to run away from the waves.

Vincent and Daddy met with the cousins and uncles for an Angel game.

"Let's eat cake!" Lauren waiting for the twins' b-day party to begin.

First Day of School

The night before Hadley's first day of school she got to go out with her favorite person in the whole world - A.Molly. First they went to the library to read books - something the two of them love to do, but with no younger siblings to interrupt or de-shelf all of the books. Then off to Ruby's for a strawberry shake.


Hadley was anxious and excited to start school and happy to have a friend from church in her class. Here she is minutes before I left her for her first day.

Unfortunately, Hadley was quite disappointed by her first day of school. When I asked how it went she said they didn't learn anything except, "rules rules rules." The following day got better as they put the 'rules' into practice and actually started learning stuff.

Labor Day Weekend

We had a fun Labor Day weekend with family in town for swimming, playing baseball, pizza and holding Gentry.
Hadley and Dallin discovered a door in the pool house just their size.

On Monday Chris had to work so I took the kids and we went up to Mt. Baldy to pick blackberries with Gma and Gpa and A.Molly. The weather was beautiful but the bugs weren't fun. Gentry, true to form, preferred to just be bundled up tight and held.
