Parties, Crawling and Sunshine!

The last 5 months have been filled with so many memories! We celebrated Samantha's second Birthday in April with many friends and my sister Whitney and her daughter Mackenzie even flew in from NY to be here too. Sam got a big trampoline for her huge gift, and to this day still loves to spend time outside on it. We've been enjoying the weather and sunshine while it's here, and know it won't be lasting much longer.. Anthony has begun college and is doing so well, we are very proud of him. He's going for nursing, it's very time demanding but the time spent now means a better future for our family later on! Lucas is crawling, such a big boy! He is now trying to climb up onto things and I'm sure will be walking before we know it. So since finding a new family for our puppy, we decided to adopt in a kitten. He is so cute, a little black and white short haired guy. His name is Tyberius, and we call him Ty - Sam, however, calls him "Titty Tat." It is hilarious. We are all ready for Christmas, even though it's still a while away - but shopping is nearly completed and we just can't wait. Halloween outfits are ready, Sam will be a fairy and Lucas will be Tigger. Should be adorable! We have been spending much time with our friends across the street - Miriam and Greg and their two kiddos Seth and Elizabeth. Congrats to them for being almost halfway there to seeing baby number 3! There are a handful of other amazing people we have met here and love spending time with all of them! My other friends Darcy and her kids just moved away from us to Georgia, we really miss them more than they know! Since Miriam is pregnant, I no longer have someone to steal my left over coffee or to shine my lazer lights into their windows late at night! Well, really there is not much left to report for now. I will get to posting some new photos later. Hopefully I'll be back soon!
