Shecklet #3 turns 9!

Scrolling through pictures brings back so many memories of this guy.  He is full of life, laughs, tricks, creativity & determination.  This past year we have seen him grow in so many ways, both academically and physically.  (Every time I turn around, I notice that his pants are above his ankles!)  As a 3rd grader, he tried basketball for the first time and loved it – wants to play again next year.  He enjoys time with his friends (at school and in the neighborhood) and is always up for working on a project or craft.  (Pinterest is one of his favorite places to find new ideas to try.)

Happy birthday Shecklet #3!  We love you so very, very much!

Here’s a few pictures from our family celebration with the new 9 year old tonight. 

Dentist four 4

I was able to get all of the kids in for dental cleanings today. Jake took the day off (for Shecklet #3’a birthday,) so he came with us as well. Four sets of teeth, four great reports! And #4 did awesome during her first check-up! She let Dr. Sharp check her teeth and the hygienist was able to do a complete cleaning.
