Our kiddos walking down the aisle on Mia's big day

| The Beautiful Bride on her wedding day |
Our summer in Chicago was HOT HOT HOT and actually is still going strong in late September. Mason enjoyed summer camp and trips to the pool on the weekends. Ava came into her own; adding many words to her vocabulary and a strong love for "brother" wanting to do everything he does. Her personality is one for the books...she is strong and encompass every aspect of the word physically and mentally. She is also my little dare devil which has left us with no choice but to put our kitchen chairs on top of our table/counter tops. Needless to say this season of life keeps me on my toes and my gas tank empty by the end of the day (another reason for the lack of posts).
Our kids have really grown this summer! They seem to interact more which is the most heartwarming thing to watch, when they are giving each other kisses or Mason is trying to have full blown conversions with Ava. One of their very favorite things to do is dance together and boy do they have some moves. It is also extremely frustrating, as they fight over one car when we have a million or one just doesn't want to be touched by the other (usually Mase). Either way our hearts are full but so are our hands.
Mason started school in late August and moved up to the 3's program. He loves loves loves school. Every morning and usually after every nap he asks if its a school day. Here is a picture of him from his first day.
Ava and I go to an open gym class once a week along with a class at the library which includes lots of singing. I hope I'm not biting my tongue but she is way more into circle time then Mason was at that age. She sits and repeats "songs songs songs" until the teacher gets things rockin' and rolling.
As for Matt and I; we took our first real trip away from the kids at the beginning of the mouth and I really struggled with leaving the kids. Like up worried the three night before we left kinda struggle. By the time we got to the airport my worry dissipated and I enjoyed every part of being away and coming back. One disclaimer, for some reason I thought I would come home well rested but that was so not the case at all.
