Summer Pictures

Ok, it been a long time again! These are pictures from the summer..we did lots of things. We had one of my nephews, Luke, out for 3 weeks, we spent a lot of time at the beach and the zoo.
Anyway, whats going on now. Sean is still working for Northwest Newborns and enjoying his job...he works lots of hours but does still make time for the family. I am working PRN as a nurse in the peds heme\onc, in addition I am working on getting my Oregon PNP licensure..so I am also (working for free) at a pediatric clinic...I should be done with this around feb\march ish...then I will just be working as a PNP, but not sure where yet.
Serena is getting ready to turn 3 years old. She just started preschool, its 2 days a week for 2.5hrs...not much, but a start...she is LOVING it!! She also just started soccer and swimming lessons. She keeps asking for gymnastics (which is a girl just like her mommy) but we wont start that until soccer is done. Seth is almost 18 months old and growing like a weed...he just started Gymboree and he LOVES it...he goes crazy when hes there..running around like a crazy man!! We are adopting a new cat (this will make 3) that has seem to adoped Serena and she loves her, her name is Sitka. And for Serenas birthday, she recieved fish!! To help Sean and I out with our chaotic schedules is our Nanny Elena....we could not survive without her and our kids wouldnt be able to do half the things they do! We LOVE her.

Serena dressed herself (again) she is very proud of her outfit.
