Soccer Season is here!

John is playing soccer this fall. He seems to really like it this year! Kinda got right in the middle of all those big boys and took the ball right down the field to the net! The coach even said he was pretty surprised because that such a little guy was not intimidated at all. :) Dave got some pics of John last weekend.

We Love Books!

Got some cute pics of the boys enjoying reading, their favorite activity (other than movies, trains, eating, swimming etc etc LOL). They got some train books from our friend, Kathy and they loved them!


Say Cheese Kevin!


Intense Train Spotting!

A Long Overdue Update on Us!

WOW I just realized that I have not updated this since May! I guess the summer was so much fun I kinda forgot! Opps!

Update on us: I started back at school with the kids in 2nd grade on Tuesday last week. It's been a crazy busy week but I love my kids and I know we are going to have a great year! It was so much fun to see all the kids from last year too and gets hugs from some of my students that are now in 5th grade! They all look so much bigger too!

John started 1st grade on Wednesday too and is in Mrs. Andrade's class. He is wearing his tie, belt and uniform now and he is soooo darn cute!

Cute uniform huh?

Hanging out at his table


Kevin and Patrick are getting bigger and bigger by the minute! Patrick can repeat anything you ask him too, almost perfectly! He can say "Haverhill, Massachusetts"! :-) Kev is still having trouble with words and is going to see a Speech Therapist soon (if she ever calls us!) but today he repeated the word "tunnel"! I was so excited about that! I don't have any pics from Sept but I have a few of them from August.


Reading with Nana

Lillian and Julia are getting big too. We visited them on day at the end of August, and they are 6 months old now! They look like carbon copies of Luke!


Julia and Lillian
Dave is still at Elderhostel but is working on things with his connections at Comcast. Keep your fingers crossed. John started soccer on Saturday and really loved it for the first time! His coach said that he was very surprised and impressed at how well John played today and I am glad he really enjoyed it! He will have a practice once a week and a game on Saturdays.

Not much more to report but we did have a great summer, we thoroughly enjoyed the pool, spent a lot of time with Nan and Nanny and our friends and we are now sweating to death during this Indian Summer! First one in a long time, that I can recall!
