Katherine - growing

Katherine June is growing every day! I love having another girl in the house, I don't feel quite so out numbered anymore. She weighs in at about 15 pounds in these picturesthey are about 2 months old. Now she is weighing 16lbs 7oz. She's starting to get used to the new house and sleeping better. She had a cold for a while that was keeping her awake, but we've finally gotten through that thank goodness. "Kat" is our little princess!

Sanibel Island

One of the first family activities after moving to the Cape was going to Sanibel Island. It is a bout a 40min drive, not bad at all, and it si gorgeous! We arrived around 7pm and just planned to let the kids explore a little. We saw sea stars, fish and Roark is holding a sea urchin. The kids were all very excited to play in the warm water and collect loads of beautiful shells! We look forward to many more beach excursions to come.

Kaylee and the Piacente's

Cameron, Kaylee Ann, Katherine and Brigham!
No, we didn't have another one! In March our family had the opportunity to begin babysitting Rick's newest great neice! Kaylee is a sweet little thing and we have really enjoyed adding her to our family, for at least a few hours a week. She is about a month younger than miss "Kat". The boys are overjoyed to have another "sister" as they call her.

One Week Old

Katherine is such a joy! She is already awake more, and we are looking forward to seeing her personality come out. She's a great fit in our family!

Halloween

We had lots of fun dressing up the boys and going trick-or-treating. I worked for days sewing jedi costumes for Roark and Cameron. (Cameron was Luke Skywalker and Roark was Yoda.) Poor Brigham was going to be Wicket, but mommy ran out of "juice" for making his so he had to take a left over costume from a past halloween, but he was the cutest little froggy ever!

Roark's Baptism

Roark turned 8 on October 16th and was excited about the chance to be baptized! His baptism was held on October 27th with many friends and family in attendance. It was a wonderful experience for all of us, Rick and I couldn't be more proud of the young man Roark is growing into.
