Catch-up!

Victoria had her first cavity - our dentist is awesome!

it took her a while to get used to having her lip numb:)

 we went out to dinner with Grampy and Grammy

Danny showed Grampy how to play checkers on his ipod

Gerri showed Grammy how to be a stylist

Victoria and Grampy in deep discussion

 Victoria has been staying up at night, I found this little reading corner one night :)

 Then it was time for school open houses!

then we have had lots of fun!! we had a sewer repair!

can't even say how excited the kids were to see this out our front door!

of course the pipes to be replaced were under the cobble stone :(

new pipe!

drilling the hole through the foundation

 Danny went off to play at the playground and the girls got to help!!

plumber came in and finished it off!

waiting for the soil to settle, will get asphault put on next week

and we had the cupcake truck come to work!!

School has been going great, everyone is settling in!
Danny has grown up over the summer, all his teachers are amazed at his growth.
We are looking forward to good things this year!!!

First day of school!! :)

 they were all very excited about going back to school!!! 5th, 3rd and 1st grade! (last year all together)

all dressed up and ready to gogogogo!

They all had a great day! no one got lost! they had chicken nuggets for lunch :)

I had lots of papers to fill out, they were all in great moods.

the girls set the table for dinner :)

they were so very proud!
folded napkins and tea lights! :)

let's hope the rest of the year is as great!! :)

Summer Vacation is done!! :)

the last 2 weeks of summer vacation the kids went to an acrobatic/gymnastic/dance/crafts camp :)

and it was right near my work.

every day starts with running around :)
Victoria and Danny are a blur!

Gerri hung right in there!
Her circle got smaller, but she kept on!

lots of stretching

 every afternoon they went on a field trip- water park, pool, splash park, library, lots of fun stuff

Danny in the lead walking back from the pool

Victoria and Gerri walking with the owner, Ms Olga :)

They loved camp and they were SO tired at the end of the day! :)

 They were VERY excited when their cousin Nicole went one day with them!!

free time and showing off :)

Nicole was not aware of all the exercise involved :)

We did lots of swimming and playing :)

The girls doing each other's nails :)

 The last day of camp the kids were SO happy: (NOT)

I LOVE this pic :)

They did smile when I asked them too!

Ms Olga had one of her dance students come in with her costume and all made up and the kids were enthralled! they thought it was amazing :)

We have been working on letters, writing, reading, tracing, coloring and puzzles :)
sh, don't tell them it is school work :)

 They are SO very excited that tomorrow is the first day of school!! they have their backpacks ready to go, snacks are packed, first day clothes are hanging up :)
This is the last year they will all be in the same school :( my babies are growing up!!

Hair cuts for school!

I took them out for lunch after and they were sassy and beautiful! :)

then we dressed up for dinner :)

I noticed Gerri limping and found she has relapsed a bit with her latest growth spurt :(
good news, bad news. good news - growth spurt, bad news - relapse.

I took a picture to send to her Dr in Philly and we will be going back for casting again :(
I am padding her foot and we will not be driving down for some serial casting till October.
they start school right after labor day and she wants (I want ) her to start school being mobile and not in a cast and her wheelchair. three years home and she still couldn't let me know her foot hurt :(
