A surprise visitor

Dominic’s second birthday

The kids are growing up
0Here are a few photos from some activities this month. We’ve got pictures of the carwash, one of Dominic’s favorite new words. And some photos of Dominic in the front courtyard and playing in the house. It sure seems like they’re quickly growing up and getting bigger.
