The Start of May

A project of mine came to an ugly head over the weekend of the May first, just as the rest of the family left to go to Ohio. So I missed out on another family outing. Here’s a few pictures from that trip, it sounds like a good time was had by all. (I should note, for reference, that during that weekend I managed to get myself in real trouble with the deadline, it was my own fault, and Melissa came to my rescue shortly thereafter. I love you. Thank you.)

Connor played a lot of soccer over the weekend, apparently part of the victory celebration involved silly string. These three shots are from May 1. See this image larger.

Nina gets a better view from on high! See this image larger.

Kaylee gives Nina a little hug and a smile! See this image larger.

Wow Connor… you got big, kiddo! Wish I could have gone! See this image larger.

On May 4th, Nina had a check-up at the ENT (Ear/Nose/Throat) to see how her operation panned out (again!) Really she was fine, for the most part. She had one ear-tube plugged up, and the doctor was able to clear it without having to do anything too ridiculous. (Although I think Nina would beg to differ on that topic.)
