Latest and Greatest

Here are some of the latest and greatest photos for your viewing pleasure! It has been a whirlwind of activities since Maddy's birth. So many things going on and soooo little time to update everyone on them. I hardly find time to download all the pictures. Whew.


The Schwartz girls enjoyed the Second Annual Craftapalooza. This year was a little less intense and we had a chance to soak up some good eats and even better company. In addition to knitting, sewing and cooking there was also some hair cutting. Kate was brave enough to trim Soph's bangs (which had grown down over her eyes).



After arriving home I trimmed the rest of her baby locks. She's been bouncing around the house showing off her new haircut.

Mads is growing sooo quickly. She keeps us on our toes and c.r.a.z.y busy! The lack of blog posting is a testament to her firecracker personality (loud and breath taking). She's amazing. Simply amazing.

Our very first WHOLE family picture. The timer worked! It really worked! Aren't we cute?


Look how enthusiastic Geo is about parenting. :)

Growing Like a Weed

All the rain here in Central Pa has the grass a beautiful shade of green, the rivers full and the babies growing like a weed! It is simply amazing how quickly they change and evolve. Ms. Madeline is teaching us so much about life.

Team America Today

Today was our first annual Team America reunion. We dodged raindrops for the beginning part of the picnic but ended up laughing until the clouds parted. To say that it was great to see old friends would be an understatement.

And of course, Sophia walked away with another best friend. She even wanted to wear a pony tail all day to be like A. Sweet. So sweet.

CPM love.

Letort Park and Playground

We found the most amazing park in Carlisle. It has a stream filled with quacking ducks, a well managed nature trail, and the largest wooden playground that I have ever seen. It is absolutely amazing.

Soph played Hide and Seek with Madeline for over an hour without getting bored (or lost!). There are so many neat areas that it was easy to run miles without realizing it.


Madeline was content tucked inside the ring sling. It is hard to get pictures of both kiddos during activities. (Who am I kidding??...it's hard when we're not doing anything at all too!) I think that you should grow an extra set of arms with ever child born.

Soph had to sit down and chat with the ducks before we left for the evening. She made friends with a few of them on our way in. She certainly has the waddle down!

Summer Fun

I haven't been doing a very good job keeping up with photo sharing, social media or other tasks that require several minutes worth of attention....but don't fret I'm getting there....
