Hadley's new-old slide.

Jess and I cleaned up and put back together this classic slide from Jess's childhood...so that dates it back to the 18th century, right Jess? Anyway, Hadley loves it. We have to keep the door closed to the mudroom when we're not using it because she would play on it all day if she could. She figured out how to climb up and slide down pretty quickly, and as you can see from the video she also knows how to slow her self down on the slide. No, Daddy has not tried the slide yet...

Sawyer is a nut.

Well, actually both Sawyer and Rossi are nut jobs. Every once and a while they go to town digging a hole and today was one of those days. Sawyer was nearly over his head digging in this hole, chasing whatever they were chasing. Either way, they had tons of fun and Rossi got his cardio for the day.

The kissing bandit.

Hadley has been displaying her personality more and more everyday. From her dancing and chattering, to her mini temper tantrums, to her kisses to everyone including the dogs, to her throwing food to the dogs, to her spinning round and round till dizzy -- she certainly is growing and changing fast. I'm excited to be done with school and teaching so I can spend more time at home with my girls. Here are a few videos from the last few weeks that I've been trying to get posted but have been just too dang busy. Enjoy...

Testing the essential goods...

Bill's Pizza was great except for the soft spoken, mumbling, Italian guy who answers the phone and takes orders - couldn't understand a word.

Last post of the day...

Well, she did it...an Schreyers honors reception, an Engineering Science ceremony, a Schreyers Honors College medal ceremony, and finally a School of Engineering diploma ceremony - she officially a graduate! We're all proud of her and we're all going to bed. G'night...
