And Now We Are Five

Henry Christian joined us on August 14 and since then has been doing all the things a baby is supposed to do, in particular eating and growing. His sisters really enjoy him and he returns their love with some very nice smiles.

Here is Cate after a Saturday walk in the rain to the library (first in her boots so she could splash in the puddles, and then in her bare feet). She is loving her second year of pre-school and is so eager to learn that on the days she doesn't go to pre-school she makes sure to keep a pad of paper handy when she watches Sesame Street so she can "practice writing my letters and numbers."





This is Ellie on the zip line at the zoo. She is fearless and she knows her own mind. This year, after surveying her extracurricular options, she chose Irish dance and chorus. She loves them both.
