Jack- It's so hard to believe that my little baby is 3 whole years old!! Seems like just yesterday that I held a little 8 lb. 7 oz. baby and wondered how in the world I was so lucky to have you. Now, I don't remember much after that because of my drug induced haze. (Ask your Aunt Heather about the picture we took that she literally had to hold me up to keep me from falling over in the bed!) I was so amazed that they let Daddy and me just take you home without having to take some kind of test or anything! You are the light of our lives and we can't imagine how our world was before you. I love that you are obsessed with golf, garage door openers, balloons, Aunt Heather, Uncle Stan, cleaning, swimming in the "big water", hot dogs, Caillou, flushing the potty(but not using it!), and movie trailers on the computer with Daddy. We hope that your next years are just as wonderful as your first three have been. We love you to the moon and back!

Ella and the Pole Dancer







Kate hated the swimming pool but Ella LOVED it. Kate did, however, like the pole at the steps of the pool. Hope that's not an indication of her future profession.

By this point, the girls were more than tired and letting us know about it.

Happy Birthday Lura!!

Happy Sweet Sixteen Lura!! The other Bauch baby was refusing to cooperate with picture taking so it's up to us to wish you a very happy birthday! Mommy was getting a little teary today remembering the day she met you when you were 6 weeks old. You were wearing the prettiest little pink Feltman Bros. dress and you were so tiny. And now you're able to drive, go on dates, and fly planes all by yourself!! We are all so proud of the beautiful young lady you've become. Have we embarrassed you enough? We love you lots!!

This happens so rarely that I had to get it on camera.

I know it's crazy to dress 8 month olds in white, but I just love how sweet they look.

We went to Winona over the weekend for the annual dance recital. Jack LOVED it and sat through all of it completely enthralled by the dancers, the lights, and the music. He even made an appearance on stage during the grand finale.
Only some of the dancers during the grand finale.
Jack with his favorite person in the world.
Somehow these balloons "escaped" from the van once we got home. Mommy caught hell for that.
Jack and Lexi after the recital. Once again, with the cheesy camera grin.
