We are planning to head up to Minneapolis tomorrow for Claudia's wheelchair evaluation.  That will be our first family trip!  News will follow..

Fun in May

Finally some warmer temperatures for us to enjoy the outdoors!  The girls just had their dance recital this afternoon and all went well.  The whole class managed to get on the stage and off without any tears and the little girls had such a great time watching all the older girls perform.  We were fortunate to have grandparents here helping as well as Aunt Carrie and Uncle Peter.  It was someone's very special 60th birthday too!  (grandma Jane)  Enjoy the photos.. I promise to post some more of the younger two soon.

Mother's Day

We had a great Mother's Day here in Rochester!  Vincent and Julianne have been great little babies who both appreciate (for the most part) all the attention from their big sisters.  Claudia and Eloise made special pictures and gave mommy flowers for the special day.  Hope your Mother's Day was filled with love too.

Finally!

Moving right along!

Sorry it has taken so long to post some photos.  As you may have guessed life is busy with four little ones.  I'm not complaining because I feel so immensely blessed to be the mother of four wonderful kids!

So here are some photos:

Introducing Vincent John and Julianne Beth...

Babies!

Hi to all! This is Matt rather than Beth updating, as Beth is resting comfortably with the babies. Vincent John (5 pounds, 10 ounces) arrived at 11:09am and Julianne Beth (5 pounds, 8 ounces) at 11:11am. Everybody is doing very well. Pictures to follow in a couple of days.

Cinco de Mayo

Just a quick note to let you know that we are here awaiting the arrival of the new additions. The move didn't manage to inspire the babies to come. I'm hoping to be done with the section before noon today and then Matt will update when he has a chance.
The move went really well due to all the help we had! Both sets of grandparents are here in town to help as well as some very supportive friends. We are feeling very blessed and grateful. It will probably be Thursday before you see some photos.
Happy Cinco De Mayo!!
