Judy cousins!

It was Uncle Josh's birthday on Saturday, so most of us Judy's got together up at Jared and Gina's. Mom-Mom got all these t-shirts for the gang, so we could get all the kids together with their siblings. I'm surprised how good the picture got! Kate and Evan certainly love to give us their "cheese" faces!
...and by the way, Leah IS Isaac's BIG sister, despite their similar size on the couch!




Ryan and Jack - exactly 5 months apart... probably only a few pounds different!

Last week...

Last week was Towson's spring break, so I had both kids all week, which was fun, but exhausting (see Jack below)!

Jack had his very own story-teller all week...
And lots of cuddles...
And there were lots of giggles! We were able to head out to a few of our favorite kids' activities around town with Kate home, like story-time at Barnes & Noble, and Family Fun Day at the Towson Mall. It was a special event day, and they had a guy there who sings and plays guitar, juggles, rides a unicycle, and brings BUBBLES!! Kate and her friend Calvin were in bubble heaven, and danced the morning away to all the fun music. It was quite enjoyable...


Kiss for baby brother? Um, no thanks sis...
Ah, geez, I said no!
Hello!

A visit with Ella!!

Last weekend we got to see the Fotiou fam, including 3-month old cousin Ella!
We had 2 birthdays to celebrate - Aunt Fopper's and Nana's - so first things first - CUPCAKES!

The comparison - yes, my child is 2 months YOUNGER than her! His head, however, is twice as large!
Hanging with Uncle Tyler, giving him his sly look...
I think these two are going to have a lot of fun growing up together!
Kate had her giggling and smiling all day, it was so cute!
Look at those curls!

Showing off her spring party dress...
Ella chatting with her daddy...
We caught them holding hands on the play mat...very cute
Hello! Nice to meet you!
Tummy time...
He doesn't really sleep all the time anymore, but that's when I have two hands to take a decent picture...
Another visit from Nana Fo...

How are we doing?

Well, it's so nice of you to ask! We're (yawn) doing just fine...




Some vids of the kids...

Trying desparately to will spring weather into our lives, we (and many other families) hit the park last weekend for some bike riding and playground fun. Below witness Kate trying - with little success - to scale the slide upwards. It really was more fun to shoot this video than remind her (for the umpteenth time since she began hitting the playground scene) she shouldn't go UP the slide...


And here's a little taste of the lil guy's voice... don't hiccups stink?!



Jack's 1 month old!!

Catching up with the kiddos...
