Super September 2019

Once we calmed down from "Birthday Week 2019," we had a lovely month together. I've taken a liking to starting the miscellaneous blog posts from each month with great family togetherness. If it brings smiles to my heart, it may do something similar for you as well.

I left the room to a screaming toddler on the
floor in pajamas. I came back to this. They
were both VERY proud of themselves.

As Spencer would say, "so nummy!"

Always a good time with our Austin cousins!

Ethan doesn't nap.

Anyone can sleep in a "regular" position.

Ethan and Maggie often share sweet moments off camera and were caught on camera to capture the sweetness this month.


And of course, the Spenceman:


Find the goofy goof.

There he is!



just a kid doing his thing in the library

Perhaps he should have napped earlier.

And last but not least, 3 unexpected rainbows this month, 1 within the cloud itself:

Something For Everyone

One fantastic afternoon, we had TWO many fun things to do. Daddy, Spencer, and Gabi joined the elementary youth group from shul, Chaverim (meaning "friends"), at the Austin Aquarium!



Meanwhile, big man Ethan went to his very first baseball practice!

This cutie was really trying out in the field.
