A Month In Review

So sorry about my "missing in action"-ness.  It has been so busy around here.  Let's start with Michael's glasses.  He got them a month ago.  I can't believe I haven't shown you yet.
This face was made for glasses.  I can't believe how old he looks.  I could just eat him up!
The day after he got his glasses, Missy and Aubrey came to town.  Shawn was playing in Indianapolis and I was going to take the boys to watch him when things changed.  Missy and Aubrey happily changed their plans and came to see us instead.  It was so great to see Carter interact with his aunt and cousin.  They just met for the first time a few short weeks ago.  

I know it looks like Missy doesn't have legs but this was the cutest one!  It was a fast love for the three of them.  Aubrey was, of course, in love at first sight.  Missy has been waiting for this moment for two and a half years.  I'm so glad she finally had it!  The cousins, Pammie and Cheyenne were all excited to give us a photo opportunity.  

Pammie, Aubrey and Michael jumped with all their might while Carter and Cheyenne just looked at them as though they had lost their minds.  This is my favorite shot though.  I have it on my desktop.  :º)  
A couple days after Missy and Aubrey were here we went to Youngstown to visit Brian's family.  Pat and Todd came in for a visit and we squeezed a little play time in there too.  

Grandma Pat was helping Carter on the teeter totter.  All three of my boys loved this one.  Brian may have helped out too.  ;º)  Michael was not so cooperative when it came to picture time with him.  

I had to sneak this one while they were trying to figure out which house had the barking dog.  He was avoiding a picture with Grandma Pat like it was his job.  Isn't it cute how they matched that day?  
Lastly, Pammie's first day of school.  (Michael's will come soon.  I promise!)  The Kindergarten started three days after the rest of the elementary school.  On Pammie's first day we got the whole clan out to see her off.  

This look is VERY typical of Cheyenne.  I don't know why she thinks that's what we want when we tell her to say cheese but that's what we get.  Almost always.  Recently, like 3 days ago, I realized that if I show her my smile with open eyes that she smiles great!  These five have been together for a month.  The Lannings got their own place last Thursday and life has been SO quiet since then.  We still see them when Pammie gets off the bus though.  :º)

Those are some seriously cute kids and pictures. Did Pammy's hair go to her shoulders intentionally or did she get hold of another pair of scissors?
