Here we are again

The Fox Beauties (aka the St. Luke's Cuties), turned 2 on the 2nd!! Happy Birthday Zoe, Abby and Stella!






My intention was to put the above in the paper for the girls' birthday as we have continued to be part of the Sunday edition of the Cedar Rapids Gazette in the St. Luke's add (and many have commented that they wish that our picture would be updated). So, in my effort to get "just the right picture" (which I should already know is probably never going to happen) here are some of the other random pictures we have taken of the girls:

The Trio Turn TWO!!!

It continues to amaze us how fast the last two years have gone and how far the girls have come!! It's finally sunken in that they are little girls now, but I still have a hard time not referring to them as my babies. They are such sponges-continuing to pick up new words everyday and trying and climb things too. We have almost mastered walking up and down the steps without any help. The girls are absolutely infatuated with the characters from the Muppet Show. Believe it or not, they can tell you who all of the main characters are, sing a couple of the songs for you and ask if they can watch it from the second they are awake to the minute we head to bed.

Here we are celebrating our birthday:

Morgan's Baptism

The same weekend that we were home for the Wedding, we attended cousin Morgan's Baptism. Here are a few photos from that day:






This is the best photo we could get of the "grandkids"

All Dressed Up.....

At the end of June, the girls and I returned to Minnesota for my cousin Jackie's Wedding. The wedding was outside and the reception at a golf course. The day turned out beautifully and the girls enjoyed the opportunity to run around. Here are some photos from that day:
