We are back!!

an update on us...

Zach...

(Zach had a shiner in this picture!)
*turned the big 9 in May!
*loving being in a neighborhood where he can roam and hang out with his buddies!
*enjoyed a great season of baseball and took tennis lessons this summer...which he is better than I am (I guess that isn't saying too much:)
*excited (well not so sure ready for summer to end) but going to start 4th grade next Wednesday!
*wants to be an astronaut when he grows up!

*Loves helping with Clint and can get Clint to smile no matter what!

Lauren...

*turned 5 in July
*Loving the summer days
*Lives outside on her scooter. Seriously is a skilled scooter machine! She balances and flies down the hills in our neighborhood! I wish I had it on video! Her buddies envy her skills :)!
*heading for the big K (kindergarten) in 2 weeks!! What will I do with my baby girl all grown up!
*Wasn't excited for school until went school clothes shopping...defiantly a girl!!
*Is growing up way to fast. Her new thing is peace signs...I swear every shirt she wanted for school had to have one on it.



Clint...



*Is 8 months old! growing too fast!
*weighs almost 20 pounds!
*Liking his baby food...finally!!
*still no teeth
*still has closed tear duct in left eye...darn thing!
*has been crawling and sitting up since 6 months.
*favorite thing to do: crawl under my bed and gets stuck
*gets so excited when kids come in the room, can't keep his eyes off them
*screams at the top of his lungs (sometimes scares himself) and thinks it's the funniest thing ever! :)
*pulled himself up for the 1st time last week and now is mastering it
*climb his 1st stair this morning...what?
*Is seriously the best baby...happy as can be...smiles and laughes at everything! Even when crying I will say "shhh" and he will start laughing!! :) love it!
*but I think is going to be some serious trouble already having to keep up with the other kids and toys are just not his thing...everything else is!


Oh how I love these little people and so happy they are mine!!
