New Cousin!

Yesterday we took a short trip to meet the new (and only on the Hatton side) cousin.  Becca loves babies.

Uncle Mike is an old pro.

Lia is so excited to have a younger cousin.

Becca hogging the baby.

 We attempted to get a good picture of all the kids.  These are the best we could do.

 

George was hesitant to hold the baby at first so I had him sit next Mike and just look.

After a few minutes, he asked to hold her.

Another attepted at a group shot.

That's it, I'm all out of pictures.  Come back in like a month to see more.

St. Paddy's Day 2019

This year the 17th feel on a Sunday so we had more to do then usual.  Patrick and Becca sang in the Festival Choir at the Cathedral for Mass.  They had to be there a hour an half before Mass started, so the rest of us had some time to kill.

After Mass and a quick lunch, we join the St. Pat's band for the parade.  We even got to carry the banner.

 

 Can you see Lia's hat peeking out from behind the banner?

 The St. Patrick and Holy Family bands.

Random Pictures

Okay, so here a bunch of pictures from the last two months.  First, we have Mike and George building an erector-set car.

Becca hurt her wrist, so I took this picture in case it was a serious injuring.  She told me I wasn't allowed to share this picture unless she broke it, but I love the sassy look on her face.

Mary got a Moana doll for her birthday.

All the girls in Mary's bed.

 Mary fell asleep on a bean bag  in the recliner while watching a movie.

Becca got to borrow a marching French horn/Falto/Mellaphone for the St. Patrick's Day parade.

Mary fell down and hurt her chin.  She also has pizza sauce on her face.

 Becca giving Tilly some loving.

 Our school had a evening when the kids did some science.  Here are some pictures.

As you can see, we keep busy around here.  The kids are all growing tall and are learning a lot.  We have 2 kids in track, 2 others playing soccer, 4 scouts, 1 in Scholastic bowl, 2 in band, 4 in choir (with Easter coming up), and 1 goes to story time once a week.  I will try to do better with the blog .
