random wrap ups...

Few more pictures I want documented before I leave August 2012 behind forever. :)

never were there more devoted sisters...

 speaking of sisters, got to spend a fun day with these beautiful girls!!

 brothers aren't so bad either.

 yummy summer grilling..

 We started spending Wednesdays with Grandma Betsy...a tradition we all love

 And welcomed sweet baby Oliver to the world! And helped his mama celebrate her birthday in the hospital :)

 A pose that will probably be taking a downturn now :)

 Reese. I can't describe her. I can't describe how every second of every day she is doing something that she probably shouldnt be. But when it's climbing in the bassinet and cuddling I at least photograph before I make her get out. :)

 Got a quick getaway to Chicago-got to see this good buddy

 and hang out with this good buddy, too

 and because as much as she gives me gray hair-she brings me so so so much delight i can't really articulate that, either. :) thankful for both ends of the spectrum!
