For the Grandparents...

Sorry I've been slacking in the blogging department. Here are some recent pictures for you, because we love you:


Anna's current smile for the camera face. I promise she is not in pain.


Us out to eat at Applebees on Paul's birthday.


Hope and Daddy. She can actually do some of the puzzles in the kids' menus now.


Our new wheels. We love it. When Mark first brought it home, Hope rolled around in the trunk giggling and saying "I love our new van!" And then that night as Mark was tucking her in, she said, "Thank you for buying us the best van ever!" And now whenever I say something like, "lets go get in the car," Anna says "it not a car, it a van!" Like I'm a crazy lady.


Helping me make some bread. They love to help in the kitchen, but I must admit that it is quite a practice in patience for me these days. One of them wanting to help was a bit more manageable, but 2 of them is double the time and mess :) And then there's the whole taking turns on dumping in the ingredients that we have to work through.

(Auntie Robin... Hope likes to clap her feet together sometimes... kind of like someone else we know :)


We got to see Uncle Kevin for about 2 hours this week. Kevin and Mark were at a conference in Chicago. It was good to see him. Unfortunately, this was the only picture we took.

6 weeks till baby girl time. I will try to get a decent baby "bump" (baby watermelon?) picture soon.

We just got a mini van too! I have yet to blog about it though because we always said we would never, never, never have one! I guess that's what three kids will do to you! Cute pictures!

I'm so excited for your new van! I know that it will make life so much easier when you are transporting your kiddoes. Thanks for posting pics of the girls. We love keeping up with you guys here.
