Zach at 2 weeks old

Zach had his 2 week check-up yesterday and weighed in at 8 pounds exactly and 20 inches long. Jennifer was 8 pounds and 20 1/2 inches when she was born so if he would have waited until his due date to make his appearance I'm guessing he would have been 8 pounds at birth. So far he's a great sleeper and eater, and for the most part is a pretty easy going baby! He's the perfect addition to our family and big sis loves to hold him and give him plenty of hugs and kisses!

Sautter ... Party of Four

On December 7th at 8:10am we welcomed baby Zachary Mitchell! He weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces and was 19 1/2 inches long. We're all so excited and Jennifer has been a great big sister!

More preschool fun!

Jennifer's teacher sent us some pictures of their class from the last couple of months ... Jennifer loves going to school and seeing her friends!

Museum day and Brayden's party!

Jennifer's friend Brayden had his birthday party at the Museum of Life and Science - we had never been and discovered that we LOVE it! We had so much fun celebrating Brayden's birthday and exploring the museum with friends. It's such a cool place, hope we can go back again soon!

Jennifer loves preschool*

One of Jennifer's teachers took some pictures of the kids so we could see them in action in the classroom ... Jennifer loves going to school and talks about her friends (all of whom are named Maddie or one of the Seven Dwarfs) all the time!

Party Time!

Jennifer had a great time celebrating her 3rd birthday with her friends at BounceU! Although, seems like her Dad, Uncle Jeff, Uncle Scott, and Uncle Drew enjoyed themselves just as much as all the kids!

*Happy 3rd Birthday, Jennifer Paige*

Phil and I can't believe our baby girl is 3 years old today! She and I got to spend the whole day together - she woke up to a birthday surprise in the backyard, a brand new playhouse that her wonderful dad built the night before : ) She spent all morning outside playing in the backyard ... 2 1/2 hours to be exact.

Jennifer loves to help me cook so we made blueberry pancakes for breakfast and then tonight she helped me make no-bake brownies for her birthday dessert! Her favorite part was eating the brownie mix and sprinkles (to be honest, that was my favorite part, too!).

It was a great day, we're so proud of our little princess!

morning at the museum

Jennifer had a great time this morning checking out the Museum of Natural Science downtown with her friends Grant, Valentino, and Brayden!

ice cream date!

Jennifer had ice cream with her friend Brayden tonight ... they are too cute together!!

Summer Camp

Jennifer is starting preschool in just a couple weeks, and as an introduction her school requires all newbies to attend one week (Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday) of summer camp ... here she is on her first day! As you can tell, she was less than thrilled to pose for me, and once we got to her class it was like I didn't even exist! She was so excited about going to school today - she walked right over to the play-doh, started working and wasn't phased at all when I said goodbye! She's been saying "let's go to school" since she woke up this morning!
