Our friend Dave took these pics of the girls.  Sloane is next!

More MC in Colorado

After over a week in Colorado, Mary Claire comes home to Charlotte today. She spent most of the time hiking, biking and being showered with attention! Can't wait to have her back home.

Our Colorado Mountain Girl

SLOANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just realized that because so many of our activities are focused around MC and Charlie I don't have many recent pics of sweet Sloane on the site.

MC Celebrates Her Bday With Friends

Happy 6th Birthday Mary Claire!

MC lost her first tooth the night before her birthday! She has watched all her friends throughout the year lose their teeth and was so excited to finally have the Tooth Fairy pay her a visit.

More Father's Day

Charlie's Recital

Happy Father's Day

Mary Claire really got a kick out of being sketched by Igor Babailov. We gave Michael the sketch on Father's Day.

Bring Your Pet To School Day

My parents "loaned us" Beau so Mary Claire could share him with her schoolmates at Bring Your Pet To School Day. The class also celebrated MC's bday a little bit early with cupcakes.

Flowers fom Nancy

When our neighbor Nancy heard the news about Mary Claire's award, she waited, with flowers and a card, for Mary Claire's bus to arrive. MC had gone to Reid's for a celebratory ice cream with her grandparents so she didn't get to see the flowers until a bit later. Mary Claire kept gazing at the flowers with a big grin on her face!
