Coryn is almost 1!!! Ella and Tara are back in school.

No it can't be. In less than two weeks my baby is going to turn 1! I am not ready. I wanted her to stay a baby just a bit longer. Why does life have to fly by so fast? We are having a monkey party for her and I got her the sweetest pink monkey dress.

Tara started Kindergarten two weeks ago and Ella started 3rd grade. They are at different schools this year, Tara at the Primary and Ella at the Elementary. They will never go to school together until high school. They are both loving their classes and so far seem to be doing fine although I know that a few months/weeks down the road that too could change.

They are both playing soccer and will probably start to enjoy it once they are actually playing games and it isn't almost 100 out!

We are planning a quick family weekend to St. Louis sometime this fall and will take the train there. We love St. Louis. It is such a great city for a quick trip. Great zoo, children's museum, restaurants, and shopping. I love to visit St. Charles too, but the kids probably won't enjoy that so we'll skip that this go around. We are taking them up in the arch for the first time. Wish me luck as I get a little nauseous even thinking about it.
