Cucumber Alert!

Alert!  Alert!  There's a cucumber near Tate without salt on it!  Alert!  Alert!

2019 Daddy Daughter Dance

This year's Daddy Daughter dance had an "Under the Sea" theme.  MLD and Ashley had a wonderful time together!

In The Crib

Just another day for Noah, hanging out in the crib.... gotta love his cutey pie smile!

Reading Together

Reading is so important!  I'm so glad that one brother is teaching another this important skill:

Clean as a Whistle

Noah is as clean as a whistle!  He may not like coming out of the bath at first, but then he warms up to his moisturizing massages:

What just happened?  Where did the warm water go?

It's massage time?  Yahoo!

I Spy

Dinnertime is always a fun event at our home.  Tonight's activity:  I Spy!

Early Riser

Tate wakes up earlier than Noah most mornings.  When he does, he likes to "talk up Daddy's nose".

Special Time

When you've got a young woman smiling at you, the world is your oyster!

Bananas in the Basement

It's easy to go bananas and have fun when you're in the basement -- there are so many games!  Here everyone manages to slow down for a few quick seconds to take two photos:

Way back in February

Everyone scoured their phones and cameras to find as many photos of Noah as possible.  We'll get through them chronologically as best as we can.  Today's photo is from February:

4 Couch 'Taters

Count 'em closely.  You'll see there are four couch potatoes and one au pair!

Two Month Rewind

The last two months have been busy around our home!  There was the Daddy Daughter Dance, the start of baseball season, a celebration or two of exciting cars and our usual hijinx.  We've been so busy running around that there wasn't much time to post to our family blog.

Just ten days ago something very sad and unexpected happened:  little Noah fought, and then conceded, a brief but courageous battle with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

For the next series of posts, we're going to rewind the clock and share the past two months with you just as they occurred, including all of the fun moments we're had with Noah.

Smile at Noah, because he's smiling at all of us in these photos.

Mommy, I am not going to smile in this photo.  These glasses are just silly!
