Homework Time

E is in all day Kindergarten, on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
His teacher sends home homework for the off days to keep him focused. 


 Homework is serious business at our house! 


When Eli does his homework, Iris has to have some to do, too...

Midwives and Such

Yesterday we went to the grand re-opening at Agape' Birth Center, which is the midwifery service that attended Greta and Iris' births. 

Here are Greta and her midwives, Michelle and Joyce


Here are Eli and Iris, with Kathy and Valerie. 
Valerie just got her license!


You can view the sweet little video they were showing at the open house here the first 2 minutes or so are a tour of the birth center, and then there are birth stories and pictures. Our births are at about 4:30...

It's a Sweater!

Eli's grandma made him a pretty white sweater when he was a baby boy. 
He never wore it. It was kind of girly...

But Iris looked lovely in it!
(would you believe I don't have a picture of her wearing it?!)

And now Greta has grown into it!


Love me a baby in a sweater!

Monsters!

The monster truck show is in town!


No, we're not going. Mullets are required for entrance, you know.


Eli is really excited about the big trucks, though!

At some point this last Monday, Eli spent some quality time with my camera...

Here are my favorites!

Gone Fishin'... Again!

We haven't gone fishing since Greta was born. I think we've gone fishing once this summer! 

This week, when I made our menu, between pizza and BBQ chicken, I listed "Successful Fishing Trip". Jeremy was happy to see that menu item!

So we headed out to Jensen's Grove... did you know they stock it with trout?!

Iris carried the worms... and her purse!


Eli and Jeremy fished


Jeremy caught the first fish... which inspired Eli to catch the second



and the third!



Eli was very excited to out-fish his dad. 

Iris kept track of the worms


Greta enjoyed her first fishing trip, from the car seat


when the girls got too cold, we waited in the car for dad and brother


yummy fish for dinner!
