Kate's photo shoot with Lauren

This is horrible, but as I am going through my pictures, I realized I never posted this photo session that Lauren did with Kate. She is around 7 months in these pictures.  It's too bad that I think my memory will help me a year later.  It's crazy how much one can forget.  I do remember that my sister in law Lauren was sweet enough to come to FHE early and take some pictures of Kate.  She did such a good job.  I don't remember why they are not in the right spot on my computer for my journaling, but I am glad that I found these in the unknown folder.  They make me smile.

I also remember that Kate just loved Lyvi when she showed up and that she gave Lyvi some great smiles.

Luke's so nice

One might wonder why Luke is so nice.  He lets his little sister play with his Pokemon cards.  Maybe he has gone through the cards and only lets her play with the ones not worth any points, but he still lets her take the cards.  Kate loves to grab the cards and just play with them.  She doesn't really eat them.  Mostly she just makes a big mess with them.  Also this girl officially started crawling.  It is the cutest thing.  She looks like a little wind up doll.

Nate's Preschool Graduation

This cute boy graduated from preschool on the 21st.  He is such a cute boy.  Nathan attended preschool with a group of boys from the neighborhood.  They had so much fun together.  I think they might have been quite the handful for their sweet teacher.  There were like 8 boys and 2 girls in their class or something like that.  I think class was always pretty rambunctious. Nate loved to go and he was super excited each day to go to school and then playgroup after.  He learned his letters, numbers, shapes and tons more and is now excited to go to Cortina with his brothers.

Family Pictures

I realized that I didn't have any professional pictures of our entire family with Kate.  I wanted some while she is a baby and it is starting to get too hot to do pictures, so I asked the boys for a Mother's Day family picture session.  I told them that as this was my Mother's Day gift, everyone had to be happy and not complain while we were taking pictures.  We only had one mishap with Nathan when he was exploring and fell in the mud.  Luckily we had some wipes and were able to clean him up.  My friend Alacey Yarn took the pictures down by the wash at our house.  I love them.
