Part 2 of catching up

It seems like this new way works okay so let’s finish this catch up. There are several things I’m not adding as it would be such a long post…

Noah had a fun camp out in de Leon springs with some friends :-)




David loves his yellow boat he ordered from Marlee and Paul’s 3D printing business :-) (https://www.etsy.com/shop/3DBrosStore)


In the nursery at coop


Boat ride in de Leon springs 


Even David got to go!!!



Got some fishing done but did not catch anything g…


Found a weird looking spider on David’s toy truck. We also found a scorpion (!!!) down by the water. I did not even knew they lived here in Florida! 


Creating smoke bombs in science class!


Went to Bulow park after coop with some friends to look for mushrooms. 






We didn’t find any good mushrooms but, as always, a rattle snake! 






Testing out the smoke bombs. Conclusion: they worked! :-)



Last week Gabriel pulled two teeth on the order of the Orthodontist, to improve his bite. This week it was Rafaela turn. He got a bad inflammation in his gum and it took the dentist a while to figure out if the tooth was causing it or not. After some x-rays and drilling he decided the tooth had to go. Both Gabriel and Rafael are doing fine. The dentist came in for an urgent visit for us therefore his non formal outfit, lol. 


Alex gave Marlee a refreshing haircut and even shaved under his hair to make it less “puffy”. He has soooo much hair! I’ll post a picture of his face and haircut asap.

Trying something new and HAPPY BIRTHDAY GABRIEL!!!

 The blog is been idle for a while because of technical difficulties. I am now trying a new way, hopefully THE way :-)

We have done quite a few things since I last updated here but the most important thing is probably Gabriel’s birthday :-) He turned 9 October 9!!! Unfortunately, we could not do much as Hand Foot Mouth decease had entered the house and made all the boys sick! They were not very sick but it is so contagious that we did not want to risk giving it to anyone  

Gabriel being celebrated in the morning.


He requested a Keylime pie as “cake” so that’s what we had. 



Rafael went with Alex to Miami for a speech and also see the cousins. He got to go on stage with general Flynn :-)


We have been out with the boat twice since the lat update and this is the first time. On the river, and Marlee and Gabriel surfed behind the boat.

David got to try steering :-)



Our local pumpkin “patch” on beach side. We went with our neighbor friend and his mom.


Children’s fair in Daytona! Marlee and his friend Paul had a table selling 3D printed items that they create.  Pretty awesome! They also sell them on Etsy. The company name is 3D Bros.

Walking in the woods (Bicentennial park) with the younger boys and their friends. We found ant lions and turtles. 



This is the end of part 1 of catching up :-) The last picture was from October 23
