Snack Time

We love anything that has to do with food at our house. The kids especially love snack time. But lately, this is how snack time is going.



First Day of Preschool

Norah had a big day on Tuesday. She had her first day of preschool and boy did she love it. Right after I picked her up she told me, "Mommy, I want more preschool right now." Then she told me all about her day. She will be going to school 2 days a week. We're so proud of our big girl.



All ready for school with a back pack that is bigger then her. Also we wanted to pick out her outfit and she was very proud of it.





A Jaeger Wedding

As many of you know, the Jaeger family is very large but also tons of fun. Earlier this month we were able to go to another wedding on the Jaeger side. We had lots of fun. Silas and I also got to be in some fun pictures. When I was pregnant with Silas there were 7 Jaeger family girls that were expecting as well. So along the way we have some fun belly pictures of all of us. This wedding was the first time we were all together now that the babies have been born. So we had to get some fun pictures.



The babies are in order of age with their mommies. Susie and Gideon, Me and Silas, Heidi and Logan, Anika and Emmett, Amanda and Jack, Lisa and Hunter, and Megan and Brooklyn. Yes, out of seven babies we have 6 boys and 1 girl. Poor little Brooklyn.




These are the only pictures I got of them somewhat together.

Vacation #2: Sunny California

Sorry this took forever to put up. The kids and I were able to go out to visit with the Bergs for an entire week! Norah and Silas were excellent travelers and had a blast while we were there, I did too. Thank you to Grandpa and Grandma Beth for letting us come visit.



Silas loved touching things in the kitchen with Grandpa.



Love this one. On a ride at the mall.







We were able to drive up to Sacramento and see the Phillips. We were very excited to see their new house and of course, little Ava.










All the Berg cousins.







Having fun dancing.




We love uncle PJ.







Grandpa hated every minute of this (I hope everyone can sense the sarcasm in that one).







Norah with her godmother, Rachel.







Silas with one of his favorite people while we were out in CA.



Little Ava's baptism.












Learning how to use technology from a pro.




Fun day at the Oakland zoo.












Watching her favorite animal of the day.






Silas would have crawled over the goat if I would have let him.










Waiting in line for the train.













Silas thought PJ needed a little help with his food.














A trip to CA would not be complete without a bike ride from Grandpa.




We are so thankful we were able to visit the Bergs in CA. Hopefully we'll be able to visit again soon.

Vacation #1: The Cabin in Sayner, WI

This past week we got to go up to the cabin. And we had a great time. The kids had lots of fun playing outside with cousins and going on little adventures.



Gettting some Corner Store ice cream on the way up.





Here is a good picture of Silas after getting a bug bit on his cheek the day before. Poor little guy.




But he loved the ice cream.







Going on a boat ride.








Norah hanging out with Silas at his favorite spot in the cabin, looking out the window.




Papa and his good catch.







The bull frog hunters came back victorious.




We loved going to the beach.


























Hanging out by the camp fire.




S'more time!












Cash had fun too. He swam almost the entire time.




We had fun watching all the deer come to the deer feeder everyday.




By his favorite spot.




We love ice cream!











Doing some fishing with dad.







Norah was very proud of our sand castle.




Silas loved the sand. So everytime we left the beach he was covered from head to toe in sand. But it was fun rinsing him off :)




Getting to open a birthday present from the Johnsons.




We had fun at the zoo too.

























The girls having fun with some pop beads.

















We had a wonderful time and can't wait to back again.
