Thirty

I turn the big 3 - 0 this week. This post isn't meant to solicit birthday greetings, but rather to express my awe at this new journey in my life. I'm not afraid or embarrassed to be thirty, I just never really thought I'd be thirty years old, so the idea is mind boggling. Weird.

We're Still Here...

... but our computer won't read our memory card.

Update: Scot is growing, Eli is talking a ton (we call him our parrot), German loves to play, I'm learning to can more and getting excited for Halloween costumes, and Joshua continues to work hard and play basketball every Tuesday night. That's about our life! Pictures to follow soon.

What's the Dealio, Mighty Cougars?!

We couldn't be more disappointed!

Go Mighty Cougars!

We couldn't be prouder!

AZ Museum for Youth

For anyone in the Mesa area... Some friends and I took our boys to the AZ Museum for Youth last week and I can't rave enough about it. We were there for over three hours and the boys probably could have gone a few more. They weren't scared at all by the monster exhibit and if anything it may have solved some of German's looming questions about monsters. I'm seriously debating on the purchase of a year pass!

The Latest Update...

I can see why third and subsequent children have fewer photos of them. They aren't loved any less than the first two, it's just with so many more things to remember now, the camera isn't always on the priority list! I guess I have plenty of room for improvement.
Now that I have my own car during the week my need to get out of the apartment on weekends has dwindled, so we spend most Saturdays relaxing at home, building gas stations (or whatever) out of duplos.
My boys love their new toy... err brother. German looks forward to when Scotland will talk and hold toys. Eli will be glad when Scot can take bites of the food Eli is always offering. And of course, both boys will be ecstatic when Scot can growl back at them!
My first attempt at Mickey Mouse pancakes!
We love this little boy! He is so full of smiles and sweet little giggles. He's already so different than his brothers were and I'm loving getting to know his personality.
