All weekend I've had a lump in my throat and am a heartbeat away from tears
streaming down my face. That can only mean one thing for a typically
very even-keel person...summer is officially over. I just had 2.5
months with my most favorite people. And, I know, how could I complain?
For Kate, Summer 2014 was highlighted by swimming and biking. She
really took off with both in the last couple of months. And she is just
getting so big, and so funny, and even more observant, and entirely too
cute. Kate loves school. She is thrilled to be upstairs at Kensington
School with the "big kids". She is happy at her school and I'm
confident her transition back will be an easy one.

For Jack, Summer 2014 was highlighted by jumping and sitting up. I have
never seen a baby dominate a jumperoo with a smile on his face like
Jack Eder (see photo). He is transitioning, though, to enjoying the
freedom of sitting on the floor and grabbing anything in his reach. But
most of all, he loves watching every move his big sister makes. We are
excited about the in-home babysitter he will have this year and, since
he is the only one there, all the attention he will get. Because Jack
will smile and laugh for just about everybody, we think he will have the
DiZillo's eating out of his hand by approximately 7:48 tomorrow
morning.
Alright, only 180 days to go. Lets do this.
