Picture Galleries

I've contemplated giving up on the blog, I can't quite keep up with it and as you can tell, we're WAY behind.  But there are so many great pictures from Christmas until now, I thought I'd post some blocks of photos to catch us up.  I can't guarantee I'll keep this up forever, but for now, I'm still trying.

Enjoy!


First up, Christmas:












Winter sports:










It's always nice to have Daddy on the ice to tie laces.

Spring:

Cousin Sophia is getting so big!




Happy 4th Birthday Mia!




Butterflies!





Easter








 
Florida:























After we returned from Florida, we had to say goodbye to our wonderful daycare person, Julie.  Julie and her husband, Misha, have been part of our lives since Carter was born.  She unfortunately had to retire somewhat suddenly and we miss her dearly.  Currently Mia goes to a daycare center and she's struggling a bit with the change.  This summer however, a Grand Valley student will be taking care of the kids at home and we are very excited to start a new chapter.

Here are the kids on Mia's last day with Julie (Carter came along to say goodbye too). 



 
That gets us fairly caught up.  I hope to keep it a little more up to date as I'm sure we'll have tons of fun summer pictures to post!

Loved seeing all the pictures. Glad you included such a nice variety of activities. I know how much Mia misses Juli. Can't wait to spend time with the kids this summer.
Love, Grandma B.

TONS of thanks for the postings, Ellen - I enjoy any and all of them VERY much and certainly appreciate that I can see the children grow and change. also, appreciate the time you must "wring out" of those busy weekends of a working mom.
Also, a timely "thank you" to Carter and Mia for their darling card (while I search for a cute "kiddie card" of thanks). Grandma
