Snippets

Here's the low down from Dan-town. In short....because I haven't been taking many pictures this past week!

This face!

If you follow me on instagram or facebook, sorry for the repeats sometimes, but if not, then they're new to you! :) Gretta was having fun with Torsten one day.

Here's the tough guy look too.

School trip adventures, scooting and gliding. 

Torsten has no choice but to receive SO MUCH LOVE from his sisters!

Gretta had a popsicle party at school last week and Maggie was pretty excited to get to participate!

And blow pops from the neighbors! 

Josh got home from Nigeria this past weekend so we went out for Thai food in the rain, lots of fun!

And one more of Mr. Cute Pants.

5 months

Here we go again, another month gone! Torsten is now 5 months old and is still such a happy baby, sleeping awesome, (well except for this week as he's had a bit of a cold) rolling over more and more from back to front and front to back, grabbing everything, looking pretty interested in food other than milk and is just such a fun guy to have around! 

He weighed in at 15 lbs last week and is quite the talker if you get him going on a story. He also, as you may have noticed, has lost quite a bit of hair! It seems to be growing back in dark so we'll see in a few months or so what happens! We were pretty surprised when he started losing it since he was born with so much!

Like, Totally!

Before I reveal some pictures from our 80's prom party last weekend, I bring to you pictures of some work we've done on the front of our house......you may remember what it looked like before:

Nothing wrong with it, just a little blah!

Here's after we stripped the door and started painting the window trim.

The color is New Brick. LOVE!

Gretta must be listening to our other plans.....she drew this picture and even wrote NO by herself to the circles in front! That's one of the things we would like to do, take out the big "crop circles" as I call them and put in a curved sidewalk, maybe add some stone to our pillars and some new plants with some color as well! Long term plans!

And here we are in all our glory....

First night out with a babysitter for all the kids, they had a great time!

And so did we!

We brought the 80's home to share too!

Workin' on his skills....

Do you like Maggie's latest "cheesy" smile? It's in every picture! Haha!

Maggie's First Day of Preschool

As mentioned in Gretta's first day post, we went for back to school outfits and Maggie was surprising, she marched right up to this shirt and pants and said this one! Unlike Gretta who took a little longer to find "the most pretty" thing to wear.

Her first Jamba Juice of her very own!

But just like big sister we had a change of outfit plans when it came to the day of preschool. 

Since she was so familiar with the preschool since Gretta went there, Maggie was more than happy to tell us to leave so she could have fun all on her own! She had a fabulous time!
