Dave visits, and Allie is 3 months old!

We have had a lot of visitors in the last few months - busy busy!  We had a wonderful time when Dave came a few weeks ago.  It was so nice to see him- and we all even got a long run in for our marathon training!  We love you Dave!

sweet kids

I try to take pictures of Allie like I did of Cole, but I don't think she will have near as many!  Here are a few new ones, Allie will be 3 months old on the 4th!

Cole's birthday!

We had a few celebrations for Cole's 2nd birthday!  One on his real birthday, the 18th with our family and Grammie - I made Cole's favorite dinner - steak on the grill and steamed fresh broccoli.  What a kid!  I made him his cake with a number two which he is really good a shouting when you ask him how old he is, it is too funny!  Allie got a taste of frosting too!  Then, we had his birthday party at Liberty Ridge Farm- a pumpkin farm, where he had his first brithday.  It is a really fun place, lots to do, so the adults don't get bored too.  He had a great time, and my parents and grandparents came up too!  I can't believe that my baby boy is 2!!

Cole's school!

Cole started daycare on monday, which we call "play school" since his favorite TV character Caillou goes to playschool too.  He did great!  Although, he didn't eat lunch - only a snack.  I asked him what he ate at school and he said "fishies".  He didn't cry when I left, put of course I did when I got to the car!  I only called twice during the day!  He says he wants to go back, so all in all, it was a great day!  He had class pictures and they are very structured - they learn things everyday, so he will really be ready for real school in a few years.   He is only going 2 days a week when I work, so it will be good for him!  He loves his new backpack with his name on it and he managed to sneak a baseball in there when I wasn't looking!  What a boy!

Labor day!

We traveled to Oswego for Labor day weekend and had a great time with my parents, grandparents and Nate.  We ate at Rudy's, kayaked on the lake, threw rocks and had a campfire.  Wonderful!

Lake Placid

Rob took the day off on friday and we took off to Lake Placid for the day.  We love it up there,  it is so beautiful!  We had to take a picture with Rob and Allie along the way,  we have one with Rob and Cole when he was a little one too.   It is in a frame in Cole's room and he loves it!  It was a nice, relaxing family day!

Allie is 2 months old!

On September 4th, Allison was 2 months old!  She is really smiling now and has been doing a million times better after switching her to Similac Alimentum.  Life is really busy with 2 kids, but we love it!
