Rhys is 11 Months Old!

Here are some shots of Rhys trying on his dress shirt and vest that he wore to the Bar Mitzvah we went to last weekend. He finally has his first tooth and is cruising a ton. Walking is just around the corner!

Hangin' Around

Just some pictures from earlier this month. They're at least a week old because all 3 kids had haircuts last Thursday night, most notably Alyssa whose bangs are no longer in her eyes. We've been very busy around here with a major day care transition going on. I think it's been hardest on me because there were a LOT of things that we loved about the old school. Hopefully the new one will be even better.

Kelly's 5th Birthday Party

For Kelly's birthday, she got to pick what kind of party she wanted. She knew that Chuck E. Cheese was off the table after last year (once is enough for a while!) so once we'd established that fact, it was pretty easy to choose a gymnastics party. I think a lot of the inspiration came from Charlotte's 5th birthday party last summer, where Kelly had a great time.  She had a great time at her own party too!

Alyssa was by far the youngest participant but fortunately Aunt Samantha helped out and made sure she had a great time too!

9 Months Old!

Yesterday Rhys had his 9-month checkup. He is 65th percentile for weight (21.75 lbs), 30th percentile for height (27.5 in), and a whopping 95th percentile for head circumfrence. He may look like Kelly, but he's got a huge head like Alyssa! :) In the past two weeks he has started crawling like a champ and pulling up all over the place. While our house is somewhat babyproofed from his sisters, he's showing us any areas that aren't!

Fun at the Playground

On a recent balmy weekend we had a family excursion to a great local playground, Kids Dominion. Good times were had by all!
