Remember?

Do you remember the short bob Tessa had six months ago, in China??? Check out what love and nutrition does for hair growth! Amazing!

Early morning Park FUN!

Sweetness

Tessa was playing peekaboo from behind a bag of snacks while we waited at a doctor's appointment. Lil' stinker!

Here is a sweet picture of Drake asleep. I need more pictures of my sleeping babies, they look so innocent then.

And last is from some afternoon fun of painting. These kids love to get covered in paint! More ends up on them than the paper! We've tried to do lots of craft time this summer and they love it.

Buffalo Post 3 May/June 2012

So you may want see my previous two posts about our time in Buffalo...

Here are some more photos from our big family dinner Sunday night.  The kids were loving hanging on Uncle Larry and Aunt Jackie!

On the Canadian side of the Falls, we found this little carnival attraction to go in.  The kids thought it was a hoot.

The room with huge balls:

The ship room:

And at Eric's insistence:

Hugging the frog outside Rainforest Cafe

I hardly got any photos at lunch, because there was always a kid getting scared and jumping in my lap. The thunder was not impressing any of my three.

This was as good as it got.  Oh well...

That night we went swimming in the hotel pool

They all love their puddle jumpers.

I was trying not to get soaked before dinner, but it was inevitable with Tessa jumping in to me.

Love this baby!

Buffalo May/June Post 2

Our second day in Buffalo we headed to Rochester, to a fabulous Children's Museum of Play.  I forgot my camera, so all of those photos are on my phone.  On Saturday the stinkers all went with Oma to Chuck E Cheese, and the we had a big family dinner that evening.  After dinner a bunch of us headed to the park again.

 Love this of Lacey and Tessa!

 Sweet girl!

 Drake is obsessed with Monkey bars.  And he does NOT want help.  Oh my.

 If her big brother does it, she has to try as well.

 Tessa charmed Uncle Brian into pushing her on the swings again.

 We wanted a picture of Eli and Nora, but he just wanted to kiss her instead.

 Uncle Eric caught Nora!

 Head first?  We had to have a little chat about that.

 Riding back to Oma and Opa's from the playground.  T and D took turns on the big wheel.

 I know this is super blurry, but I just love it anyways.  Drake was determined to hold Gwen, and she was giggling her little head off.

 We did baths and then decided to have movie night.  Cousin Gavin stayed and watched "Shrek" with us!

 Drake took a break from the movie to play with Aunt Dianna.  Such a silly boy!

 And then these two decided snuggles with Mommy were in order!

Sunday morning we had family photos with 8 adults and 7 kiddos, and those are soon to come.   On Sunday evening we had another family dinner, but this time with LOTS of family and friends.  Nora got tired and found her blankie and binky.  I love this picture of her with her lovies.

 And Tessa decided to hug cousin Gwen.  They called her "Baby Gwen" all weekend.

Sunday night we said Good bye to all of our cousins, aunts, and uncles.  Everyone was back to work the next day.  Monday morning we headed to the big hotel/casino up at Niagara Falls.  We briefly went over to the Canadian side, and had some fun.  Head on to Post 3...
