Speedster Tyler

More amazing speed-skills...for a one-year-old...

And then some older footage of the days when he'd drive more conservatively...via the steering mechanism.

 

A Cute Video of Tyler...or is it?

We finally had the chance to look at our pictures from our camping trip over Labor Day weekend and came across this treasure.  Robert was trying to capture Tyler being cute but was "interrupted"....


It's classic Kate, don't you think?  Love it!

Back to School

Last week the kids headed back to school - I can hardly believe the rate at which summer flew by!  We had a great time this summer with tons of hot weather so with back to school and fall upon us, I'm really quite excited for cooler weather and the fun that fall brings. 

On with the back to school pictures!

 The kids were up pretty early - there was plenty of time for lots of playing...Tyler looks SO MUCH like Peter did at that age.

 Don't you love the scowl Tyler is sporting in this picture?  Yeah, he was sad they were headed back to school - that's my philosophy anyway....  In truth, he's been busy perfecting this little scowly face.  It's hilarious and irritating at the same time...

 Much better with the smile in this one!

 Robert walked with us to drop the kids off - it's always fun when Dad comes along for the walk!

 Peter has Annie's teacher from last year (she switched grades) - we thought she was fabulous so we are really happy about that!

Random Pictures from the last little bit

Her favorite place to nap - the stroller.  She goes hard and would frequently fall asleep on the walk to school.  I think everyone at school got used to her being asleep when I arrived.

Tyler loves the piano!  When Annie practices he'll sit and listen if he's in his high chair - if he's on the ground he'll get over there and start tapping away at the keys on the end.

WHOOPPPEEE!  Does summer get any more fun?  I think not!

Peek-a-boo anyone?

Have I mentioned how this kid has everything he could ever possibly want or need brought right to him?  Popsicle?  Drink? :)

Annie's birthday and Baptism

Annie also had a big birthday in May - she turned 8 and was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  We had family in town for the day, Robert was able to baptize her and everything went beautifully!  Congrats Annie!  What a great day!

 Annie was baptized in the same dress that I was baptized in - lots of her relatives have worn it on their big day too - her aunts Jenny, Jane, Lisa and Mary and her cousins Brianna and Tristan.  You're next Kate! ;)

Happy First Birthday!

It's time for a little catch up - we've had some big birthdays around here...

 This guy turned one - Happy birthday!

 He'd been watching us eat treats for so long that I think he was more than ready to dig in.  At one point Robert went to take it away and he was NOT happy about it. He's one laid back, happy little guy and I just can't get over how fast time seems to be going lately.  Any chance the next year won't fly quite as fast?
