This is a slightly messier than normal Noah at breakfast time. Yogurt with some honey, cheerios and raisins...yummmm!
Noah can now climb into what we refer to as the "Big Boy Chair" all by himself. Sometimes we've caught him sitting in it reading to himself...absolutely precious!
We've had lots of pool time this summer. Noah's favorite things to do include: throwing balls out of the pool so we have to run after them, dumping water out of the pool with buckets, dumping water onto himself with buckets, trying to splash us, and trying to drink the water. It's not really a relaxing time for Mommy and Daddy, but Noah loves the pool!
Noah also loves getting this mesh laundry hamper over his head and running around with it on. He laughs at himself hysterically...it's pretty funny!
Finally...we have a grill! Matt got it on July 5th...which turns out to be a fantastic day to buy a grill if you're looking for a deal...and if you don't want to put it together yourself.
...not so sure about the slide...
...love the slide too!
Not loving this. Wishing the swinging or the sliding was still happening. (Thinking Daddy humored Mommy to pose for this picture...I try not to encourage her to do this).
Yes! Gravel and dirt...loving it!
"...love sand, love, love love it!"
"Whoa! Where did Luke go?!"
And yes, this is the best picture of all three kids together...after a long and exhausting week. 
4th of July weekend with the K's. Noah loved the sparklers, but really loved watching Anya play with her sparkler.
Look at how big this sweet boy is doing! Precious! And Noah thinks he's pretty cool too!
Her arms were in front of her face so we didn't get any good face shots, but here are her arms. 
Feet...
This is a profile of her face. The arrow is pointing to her nasal bone. Matt says her head doesn't look as big as Noah's did...we'll see!
Here's the "It's a girl!" shot. The ultrasound tech had to work really hard to get this (and to be able to tell us the sex) which is another reason we don't have a lot of face shots. 
So now you've all met Chloe for the first time. She's pretty active and has been good to me. (Meaning that she likes my one cup of coffee a day and Mexican food, so mama's happy!) For right now we've pretty much decided to try to go for the VBAC, but we'll have a time reserved around 41 weeks in case she decides to follow in Noah's footsteps. That's the way we're leaning anyway. I just can't schedule a major surgery if it isn't necessary...be praying that it isn't! I promise I'll catch you up more soon (all five of you!)
In case you didn't catch this part...I HIGHLY recommend this (Elisa and Laura will definitely back me up on this - it's so worth it)!
