Kosse's Baggage

Kosse's list of items he has to have with him when we leave the house is slowly growing!

It's hard to climb in the car and not fall with your hands full!

Rolling Charlie!

Kosse and Ky: Growing Boys!

The boys a year ago:

The boys today:

Oh, my heart! It goes by too fast!

Chuck E. Cheese....Again

I love getting to watch Kosse as he grows older and bigger and braver!  He ran with the other kids to dance with Chuck when he came out to throw tickets.  In the past he wasn't sure enough to venture with Ky and the group' but this time he danced away in true, absolutely adorable fashion!

Trim the Tree

It's starting to get a little cooler at night and soon I will need to bring the tree inside.  In anticipation of this, I decided to trim off the top and a few dead branches.  Ky helped cut and Kosse ran around the yard.  Overall, I'm very pleased with the healthy turn the tree took from being outside and definitely think the move saved it's life.  Now, just hang in there inside until next spring, tree!

(I tried to get Kosse in these last two photos.  But he wasn't having it!  He was on a mission to run, run, run!)

The Tale of a Boy and his Bunny Cont'd.

I stumbled upon Kosse reading Bunny a story.

Close to My Heart

This is the beautiful locket my nephews Levi and Milo helped their parents pick out for my birthday.

I was able to fit pictures of Kaleb, Ky, Kosse and their dad inside:

Charlie's Sunday Best

Oh, sweet baby boy!

Chef Ky and Chef Kosse

When we decided on spaghetti for supper, the boys were excited to help with the breadsticks and Ky even helped put the sauce in and the noodles.

When Kosse lost interest in breadsticks, he turned to the box for some homemade fun!

Go, girls, go!

Xara and Symphony had their first soccer games this morning.  Xara is number 5 on the green team and Symphony is number 9 on the red team.  Dan is coaching Symphony's team this year.  The girls did great! Both of them kicked the ball at least once during their games. 

From the left Symphony is the fourth one.  Dan is in the yellow shirt doing warm up stretches with them.  Here, they're doing arm circles.

Kosse wanted to run on the field and get the ball the whole time.

Kutie Kleinhagens

How adorable are these kiddos?  I just wish I could kiss them through the phone!
