Wow, so much has happened this summer! How about a quick update and a few pictures?

• Adam graduated in May from Indiana University
• We moved to Utah so Adam could be closer to his two startup businesses
• Let me clarify: we moved into the basement of the Marriott home
• Adam is crazy busy. Entrepreneurs don't have business hours.
• Laura had a baby on July 1st. Homebirth. Everything was great. Liv Lorraine is beautiful and so so happy. Our earliest smiler--week 1!--she continues to be extremely smiley.
• Jane started violin lessons again in August. She is reading and writing and, not surprisingly, sounding like she's at least 12. She even went to a middle school summer party. We found her roasting marshmallows with 13 year olds a couple houses down.
• Audrey is so tall! She is sharing shoes and clothes with Jane now. We've noticed that she gets along great with handsome little boys. She smiles at everything they do and I think it makes them feel good.
• Madelynn is...well...she may be destined to be a singer. She has an amazing set of lungs and she uses them all day. Definitely not a baby anymore. If you try to call her "sweetie" or "princess" or "muffin" she'll frown and correct you. "My name is not Sweetie. It's Maddie/Molly (depending on what she wants that day)."

Now how about a few pictures from the month of July?

Adam grew his beard for awhile and needed a photo with Will. 

Making cupcakes with Nana. They are basically her very dedicated fan club, following her around  ALL THE TIME.

Moments into the world. Midwife checking her head.

Can you tell that Jane loves being around cousins again?

I just love this picture of Audrey. Adam took them to a splash pad a couple days after Liv was born.

Fun-loving girl.

Liv Lorraine. 1 week.
