say what!? SEPTEMBER!?

Guys.  I haven't posted since APRIL.  Pa.thet.ic.  Regardless, here are a smattering since then and we'll just have to pick up and hopefully go from here ish...I don't even know dates.  Clearly I'm doing well with this.  Jesse just told me that he read (somewhere) that most blogs are abandoned within two months of being started.  At least I did a bit better and obviously at least still remembered about this one!?

our friends hatched out ducks.  I made them promise that they would wait to dunk them in the water until I could be there with the girls. 

just because they're adorable.
