Family Pictures

While Michael and Emily were visiting, we had Emily take a few pictures of our newly expanded family.  I would have posted them earlier, but I wanted the Moms to see them for the first time in their Mother's Day cards!

I took a few pictures of the kids.

My favorite picture of Ellis, if only it were turned lenthwise...

 Ellis was a great traveler and all flights were on time to Green Bay!  Once there, more family pictures!  It was a long time to be away from Nora, but the time went quickly and Claire's bridal shower was a success.

While we were gone, Jeff made sure that Nora had plenty of fun depsite the bad weather.  She had playtime with Rocco and Sawyer as well as Ellie (below).  She also went to happy hour and Mother's Day shopping!

Playdoh on the carpet!?

Ready for school!

Last weekend was busy, Saturday was spent running errands and finding treasures at our neighborhood garage sale.  Doesn't every child need a full sized jumpy castle for the basement?  It barely fits in the playroom downstairs, but Nora sure does love jumping in it!  It was a great way to keep her occupied Saturday while it rained and I'll have to take pictures soon.  Sunday morning Jeff ran a half marathon in 1:30:10!!!  We also watched Nicole run the full marathon and had a great brunch afterward, all before noon!  How did I not take any pictures?

This is my last week of maternity leave, so it's back to work and off to daycare for Ellis.   Where have the past three months gone?  Well, I'm sure I've done over 100 loads of laundry...  So much to do yet this week, update the blog; check!
