Granna's New Ride!

So...Zach is obsessed with driving!  He will sit in anyone's car and just drive!  Needless to say, when Granna got this newbie...Zach was beside himself!

He is fascinated at the fact that he can touch one button and the back door will open and shut!

Little Addie following in her brothers footsteps!

Back to School!

Today was such an exciting day! Zachary went back to school and started his second year of preschool in his new 3 year old class! He was so happy to be reunited with his friends! I can't believe he is already beginning year two! Time is going by too quickly!

Trying to put his arm around Addie!

Waiting patiently for his friends to arrive!

Then his girlfriend Gianna arrives!

In they go!

Inside he found Bennet and the two are already busy at work!

My Little Troopers!

We have had a fantastic week so far at the beach! The kids have been amazing! Little troopers...napping everywhere and allowing us to fit in all the fun stuff! Addison is taking full advantage of sleeping in as she did not rise until 10:00 this morning! Zach is doing a little better...7:30 is actually sleeping in for him too!

We have enjoyed the beach, the pool and Zach's favorite...all the rides on the boardwalk! I can't believe we are half way through the week already!

Addie and Granna being silly!

And then Zach being silly!

*sigh*

My sweet babies playing in the sand!

*sigh*

Zach floating in the pool with Addie's float until he got brave
enough to venture out there on his own!

more to come...

Silly Fun!

Whew Wee! It has been a super busy, fun filled summer! That's why I haven't posted in a while! We have been enjoying this time as a family traveling around and visiting friends! It has been wonderful! Here is a little bit of what we've been up to...

Here is Addison in the tub showing off her new ear rings! Yes...I did it! I pierced my child's ears! I think it was more painful for me than her!

Aunt Sonia came over for a visit and here she is playing pirates with Zach!

Snuggle Time!

Zach taking a break from teaching Aunt Sonia how to ride his new bike to sneak in a kiss!
Little Charmer!

Girlfriends!

Zach also got to meet Addison's future husband...Baby Leo!

Sweet Kisses!

We took Zach to see the Urban Pirates!
He loved it!

Here he is working his magic with a few other pirates!
Ahoy Matey!

We also ventured to Dutch Wonderland with The Urban Family!

Our summer journey continues with our yearly beach trip planned for next week!
Stay tuned...

Another 1st for Addison!

Today was Addison's 1st day at Gymboree!
She had such a great time too! I started Zach in Gym class when he was 8 weeks old, but with Addison, it was just a little more difficult to get there that young. Especially with a 2 year old running around at the time! Now that Zach is in school and Addison has cut out her morning nap, Gymboree will work for us!
Here is my little princess on her 1st big day!

Cars 2

Last weekend, Zach experienced his 1st movie inside a movie theater! Chris took him with 2 of his friends and their dads! He LOVED it! He cried when the movie was over and he had to leave. Cars is his new favorite movie and popcorn is his all time favorite snack, so he was super excited about this whole experience!

Here he is getting ready for the show!
#1 for Granddad!

Hats!

Aunt Rachie had these awesome hats made for Zach and Addison for their birthdays to use this winter! They came all the way from Germany!
I love them!

Thanks Aunt Rachie!
