Olivia still only has her one tooth, and it sticks out like a sore thumb when she smiles. It's very cute though. The three girls enjoy making the house look like a tornado went through it!! They play pretty good together now. Olivia can't wait until she can join in the running....

Abby turned 4 years old this October. She celebrated with a Cinderella cake and went to build and bear and made a monkey as a gift from her Grandma R. She loves birthdays and now can't wait until she can be 5!!!

Olivia is 6 months old!!! She can sit by herself now and play with her toys. Of course everything goes in the mouth!!!

Abby's first day of preschool!! She was very excited to start and did very well on the the first day. She loves going and has her very own locker. She can't wait until she can ride the bus to school next year!!

Goodbye to Summer!

We spent most of Labor Day weekend at Sarah's grandparents cottage. It's about 40 minutes north of Grand Rapids. The girls had fun playing with their cousins. Abby loves to go sailing and she also tried tubing, but didn't like that as much! On Sunday night we had a fire and the kids made smores and had fun throwing sticks and leaves in the fire. The cottage was cleaned up and everything put away until next summer!!

One of the girl's cousins, Austin, was in town last week. We took the kids to the Grand Rapids Children's museum. They had a lot of fun playing in the "construction zone" and on Clifford. They we able to make their own crayons and placemats and received a free Clifford book.

Olivia is learning to eat more solid foods now and loves to sit in her highchair and watch her sisters eat dinner. Hopefully they'll teach her only good table manners, Ha!! She is full of smiles and is learning how to sit up now.

Abby is 3 1/2 years old, she'll be 4 in the beginning of October. She's going to be starting preschool this fall and is excited about that. She is still the quiet one, well atleast when she's in public, but loves to talk at home. She loves to help Daddy around the house and yard. She's a good big sister, and very protective of Brooklynn and Olivia.
