Movie Date




Judy took the older girls to see the Kit movie and I kept the younger kids for movies at home. Ben and Isaac were glued to the screening of Cars - see the eyes when I asked them to pose for a pic? Lily and Ellie had a great time playing just the two of them and watching Stuart Little.

Ben discovers Legos!



Suzy got a new lego set for her b-day and Ben was totally engrossed. True to his mechanically minded nature, he was pretty good at them - especially for a just turned 3 yo!

Suzy turns 14!





Last Saturday Suzy celebrated her 14th birthday with some friends at Works of Clay.

A New School Year is Here!





This is all 5 Devlin kids on the first day of school. Not too bad, though it takes a bit of juggling to keep the little boys happy while the girls work. The last pic is of Max, snoozing away after his morning classes (learning by osmosis - see book at his feet?). One of his profs did grad work at UC - nice connection :-) Max didn't tell him about the Graeter's we enjoyed courtesy of Tom and Amy (you guys ROCK!!!)...

Baby It's Hot Outside!













Too hot today to do much except swim ... thank goodness for the neighborhood pool! The first picture is of Owen, konked out afterward :-) I love the pic of Lily in flight!

An October Preview




The Disney Store Outlet is having a fab sale on costumes right now so I picked up one for each of the little boys.
