Sorry for the delay

Sorry, I will try not to let that much time lapse inbetween posts again. Here is whats been going on in our lives. We are finally in the final stages of closing on our house in KC. I passed PNP boards, so I will starting the processes of completing my CV and looking for a job 2 days\week. I do have childcare lined up for the kiddos...tentitive start date is Oct 2. Seth is rolling from front to back and loves to play with toys on the playmat, he also is fond of his fist...constantly sucking on it! Which is good, because Serena is constantly stealing his pacey. He also recently laughed out loud and found his feet...something new to play with. Little Miss Serena is keeping us busy climbing everything in sight, a few to name: her play kitchen, into the windowseal, her changing table, into Seths bassinet, on the barstools onto the counter, oh and yes, baby gates!! She is talking non-stop, she makes 3 word scentences on a regular basis and she has recently named all her babies.....her favorite being Baby Rachel....it is so cute to hear her call for her. Sean is keeping busy at his job and trying to do a little yardwork on the side, not to mention all the little projects I have for him around the house. Its a busy life but we love it!!

Papa and I hiking at the falls...Sean wanted to carry them both...I did not make him...but it is very cute.

Serena eating dinner at the dining room table in a booster seat instead of in her highchair!! She loved it and she did a really good job.

Chi and Alison came down to visit one evening. This is Chi with Seth...he looks like a natural! Ali with Serena.

Chi stuck in Serenas tunnels.

Papa with his baby boy....thats a washrag under his chin...we were giving him his vitamin.

My two babies in the morning still in PJs.

Serena wanting to be a baby too. Serena being sweet on her brother.

We spent the night up in Washington in the biginning of July to spend time with Aunt K and Uncle Sean.

Serena helping the new puppy clean up some split ice.

So in June, while Sean worked, the kids and I took a little trip to the beach with the neighbors boys with their mom and grandma! It was awesome! The kids where wore out everynight, it was non-stop partying, kid style.

Susan taking care of Seth while I tried to keep up with Serena on the playground.

This was my first time making play-dough...it turned out pretty good!! Fathers Day Morning...both of the babies!! Serena going around all morning (and for several more days) saying, "Happy Daddy Day".

This is what Serena does when she doesn;t get her way. She lays herself down (most of the time, she had learned throwing yourself down tends to only hurt her) then starts crying.

Little Man enjoying himself in the swing thats way too big.

Serena being sweet....but watch her, sometimes she not being as sweet as she appears!

We are headed for TROUBLE

This is Serena calling to the neighbor boys!

This is what Papa got Serena while they had a father-daughter day out!! She still loves the water.

Seth is such a wonderful sleeper!! He will fall asleep in mid-play.

Too cute!

June through the beginning of July

Sorry, I know I have been a slacker, let me try to fill you in on what has been going on the past 6 weeks.

The beginning of June we had our first family vacation with 4 people. We went to the beach in Lincoln City, OR where Serena played in the puddle the ocean left behind and we searched for sea creatures every morning. We also went to the Aquarium...Serena loves it and Seth enjoyed himself too. We let him face outward in the baby bijorn for the first time and all those swimming fishies wore him out!!
