Dylan's Birthday Party

Dylan's birthday is Tuesday, so while we were in Columbus we celebrated with a pool party! Grandma got this AWESOME hulk cake!

Tons of great toys....Santa doesn't think he needs to do much shopping now!!!

Ingold Christmas

Saturday night we celebrated our Ingold Christmas in Columbus. My cousin's hubby Terry works at the Crowne Plaza so we were able to have the party there, swim and spend the night. I think it was a fun time had by all!

a little too much excitement for sweet Savannah...

Happy Birthday MawMaw

Sunday we celebrated Maw Maw's birthday! The kids helped make a yummy carrot cake. Here is Sierra laughing at the book Stac bought about taking care of grandmas and grandpas. I think this was where the book said she is supposed to share her special blankie with grandmas, lol.

Savannah's first trip to Grandma's house

Celebrating Labor Day & September birthdays at Mike & Julie's

Our new ride...

Savannah's first bath

Savannah's cord finally came off this week so she got her first bath Wednesday morning and she loved every minute of it. She's a sweetheart and makes everything pretty easy actually.

First day of school

The kids started back to school at Wooster Christian on Tuesday! Dylan is in Jr. Kindergarten this year and going 5 days a week in the am and Sierra is in Pre-k on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Both seemed to really enjoy their first day and I actually had to carry Sierra out of the school kicking and screaming on Wednesday because she wanted to stay.

2 weeks old

Savannah is 2 weeks old today and is growing and changing everyday. She is such a sweet little thing! Other than still having our days & nights mixed up she is making life pretty easy for us! Dylan and Sierra have enjoyed having Daddy home the last two weeks and will be sad to see him head back to work tomorrow! We've enjoyed all our visitors and have really appreciated all the generous gifts and dinners. We are overwhelmed by the love and support of all our friends and family! We are truly blessed!

Welcome Sweet Savannah!

Savannah Grace arrived August 3, 2011 at 10:33am weighing 6lbs. 5oz. and measuring 18in. long. Dylan and Sierra were so excited to meet their little sister.

10 days and counting

We're almost there! About a week and a half left until Sweet Savannah arrives! I'm still feeling pretty good! I was starting to get very impatient, but now that it is getting so close I am trying to enjoy my 8 hours of consecutive sleep at night and all those other little things that will vanish in the wind in a few short days :)

My office is starting a 12 week weightloss contest Monday and this will be my before photo...sorry to anyone else participating but I have this one in the bag ;)

Last trip to Cinci as a family of four...

Last weekend we squeezed in one last trip to Cinci before Sweet Savannah's arrival. It was HOTTT but we got by with the help of Grandma's pool....

The boys enjoying the newest pool toy...Mr. Alligator sure took a beating this weekend!

Dylan's "catfish" dinner. He insisted on having catfish so we figure the Haddock would do :)


Sierra and her one true love- Daddy was home all last week and Sierra has attached herself like glue to him. I love the way she looks at him with those adoring eyes...priceless. Every little girl deserves to have a daddy she can be madly in love with!

We packed the weekend full with a day at the waterpark and putt-putt golf as well! As always, a great time had by all and two exhausted kiddos (and mom) slept the whole drive home!

Keeping cool...

You just have to laugh at the inherent differences between girls and boys.... you can't teach this stuff! See Sierra's response to the sprinkler above and Dylan's response below..
