Anna loved Aunt Nan’s rocking chair!

Aunt Nan hosted Anna’s birthday/welcome party for all of the Banks family.  It was such a joy to be at her and Uncle Bill’s place, and it was all set up so cute.  Okay, one more pic…

Isn’t this cute!?!  We loved seeing the Woodley cousins and can’t wait to hang out with them again, hopefully soon!

Happy Birthday, cousin Anna!

Noelle got all cozy on this rainy day with her animals, Barbie bracelets (from Fancy Nancy) and her new favorite obsession: Barbie & The Three Musketeers!  This was Noelle’s first time to watch a movie in bed.  It was a special treat for her!

Bouncy Bouncy!

I just loved all these kissing and cuddling pictures and had to post them all as a progression… I wish I had gotten their sibling interactions on video – absolutely precious!  Noelle and Breckin were so proud to take care of Anna Kate and Jett.

Fancy Noelley!

Too many pics of the same pose, I know… but she’s just so stinkin’ cute!  I love how her toes are hanging over the edges of her sandals because it’s the end of summer and how she velcroed her shoes on all by herself because she’s such a big girl now!  Love it all!  Oh and the crazy glasses, that’s all Noelle!
