Vancey....

His first time eating his very own Ice cream Cone ..... He was loving this!

We love that Vance wakes up with big puffy eyes. It is so sweet.

More updates.... Vance is still cruising around. He crawls around without letting his knees touch the ground super fast. He has most of his molars in or breaking through. He yells for candy or sweets when his sister and brothers have it. He doesn't like milk yet, but I am sure that will change. he is such a JoY!

1st Piano Recital...

This was Madison's first recital. She is really starting to understand how to play the piano. She loves to play "Who's on third". She played "Old McDonald" for the recital. She did such a great job! Way to go Mats!

Motorcycle aCCidents...

Blane was riding the "fast" motorcycle and he forgot to put his helmet on. He crashed into the brick wall in our backyard. When we heard him crying and came out to get him he was covered in blood! It was so scary! We came inside to dry it up and figure out where the blood was coming from. It was right above his forehead nestled in his hair. Poor baby. He was such a trooper.

We were waiting to see the doctor.

During the procedure.... 5 stitches! He was not liking this. My poor baBe!

Afterwards...so sad. We took him to pick out a treat afterwards for being so brave. He chose a bag of M&M's and chocolate milk.

First came Madison on Halloween 2009...... Dason fixed these bikes up that Ryan and Tenneal gave us and he keeps trying to make them go faster.

Grandma & Grandpa (boston) visit

It is so nice to be able to spend time with my Grandparents. I have always had such a good relationship with them although they live hundreds of miles away in Massachusettes. We had a BBQ at my Uncles for some ribs and some homemade spaghetti and meatballs...yum. The next day I kept Madison and Davin home for school to meet up with Grandma and Grandpa Lucente. Of course we ate first, and then we sat outside in the seasonably warm weather to watch the kids play in the splash pad in Old Town Gilbert. The kids (great grandkids) got spoiled with gifts. I am so thankful that my kids can come to know my Grandparents. I too am thankful for their love in my life.
