What We've Been Up To

Fall is flying by, even though it still feels like summer with near 90 degree temperatures every day.  We are enjoying the sunshine and warm weather while it lasts though!

 Nolan is still very interested in Legos.  I finally snapped and organized them all by color one day.  Crossing my fingers and holding my breath that my efforts last longer than a week.

 We headed to Cleveland one weekend to celebrate a belated birthday for Eric at the Tribe game with his parents.  The Indians had just come off of a 21 game winning streak and they won the day that we were there so it was a lot of fun.

 Quinn's first baseball game.  She thought it was funny when the crowd went wild and was content as long as we fed her.  Lady went through peanuts, popcorn a soft pretzel, Swedish Fish, and some nachos.

 We were also able to support my dad that same weekend as he was rewarded with a lifetime achievement award through the hospital.  It was fun to be there to watch him receive his reward and give his (15 minute) speech.  My grandpa was one of the first doctors to receive the same award in 2002 so it was very sweet that my dad was honored with the same award.

 Eric's parents watched the kids while we were out with my dad.  Quinn wanted to sleep with Nolan and they let them.  We had never let them do that before so I was nervous they wouldn't sleep through the night but they did and had fun!

Nolan finally transitioned into a booster seat!!  Ohio law is 4 years old and 40 pounds.  He finally reached the weight limit at 6 1/2 :)

Nolan came home with this note from his teacher this week.  We are so proud of his hard work so far in 1st grade.  Such an improvement from last year.

Maddox got a new baby sister so Quinn has been happy to have a playmate while the Inkrott family gets adjusted.

 Nolan started tennis.  So far he really likes it.  I am hoping he keeps it up so I can have a buddy to hit balls with.

 Quinn and Reese participated in the Tyler Run walk-a-thin during one of their Friday playdates.
