Dane and Wyatt both had a few days of a ROTTEN tummy flu ... ah, but as mom the non-stop picture taker, I still take pictures!

Busy Weekends!

Trent at a skate park up North - Dane was too busy skating to stop for a picture!

We went to Jeff & Joan's new house for meatballs (YUM!) and all the cousins got to play!

Silly, SILLY Bailey!

Cooper (4 monthts!) in the drivers seat!

Bailey blowing kisses!

Another day, another park activity!

Today we took the little one's to Cowen Park (we love this park!) for a Special Event. The kids had fun playing games and learning about health and nutrition. The funniest part was the series of pictures below - the way Trent and Wyatt were tossing bean bags into a target!

Chris & Cooper

An afternoon at Cowen Park with Dejah & Kora!

Today after work and school, Chris and I took the little ones and Cooper to meet up my sister Dejah and Kora at our favorite park: Cowen. The kids pogo-sticked, hit-balls, we took a hike along the ravine - and had a great fall afternoon! Trent, our super-star!

Bailey getting a hug from cousin-Kora!

Kora hugging Uncle "Kiss" as she sweetly calls Chris!

Wyatt pogo-ing!

Wyatt helping Kora walk - Trent doing fancy pogo stick tricks - these boys are NUTS on their pogo sticks - jumping down 5 stairs at a time!!!

Kora & Dejah ...

Taking a break ...

Kora taking it all in (Bailey waiting to give her cousing a "gentle" push)

Wyatt swinging on the zip-swing!

Chris the pusher - of kids on the swing (trent behind them in nearly the same pose as daddy)

A day at Ballard Locks & Ballard Skate Park

Today Chris and I took Dane, Trent, Wyatt, Bailey & Cooper to the Ballard Locks (craziest part of all - Chris had NEVER been there! What kind of a Seattle-native has never been to the locks?), and to Ballard Commens Park which has a Skateboard park (bowl) in it ... it was a fun day for us all! Even Cooper had a great time - but he didn't skateboard ... maybe next year.

Wyatt & Trent doing their skateboard thing!

Yay! Out of the bowl!

Reeaacchhiingg for Daddy!!!

Running to Daddy to get out ...

Our busy, happy & fun-loving 4-pack! The bowl is a nice place to keep them all contained!

Dane looking "goth" (or is it "emo"?) ... but always happy to be able to skateboard!

Trent is REALLY into skateboarding with his big brother, Dane!

The Boys in the Bowl ...

The ever handsome-hubby! (and kids-coats holder)

The three little ones, checking it all out ...

Cooper (16 weeks) loved the day out

Callie (hey, thats me ... I hate pictures) & Cooper watching on ...

More climbing ... who knew dock equipment could be so fun!

Bailey looking like such a BIG girl!

Bailey & Wyatt looking at the fish in the viewing area under the fish ladder!

Trent & Wyatt checking out the big fish

Wyatt climbing - I love the determination!

Chris, Cooper & Bailey at the locks ...

Bailey's hair looks like a kid from Who-Ville - even Cooper is checking it out!

Wyatt likes to skate board they way I do - by sitting on it!

Dane and Trent haning out at the "bowl" ... cool boys!

First Day Of School!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today, the boys started KINDERGARTEN while Dane started HIGH SCHOOL ... pretty crazy how fast they all grow! All three boys were awake and ready early ... I wonder how long that will last??
