Catching Up

Man, I blink and another month has gone by. I stand up, and there goes another one. What is going on!? Anyways, I'm going to take a shot at catching up. Here goes. Careful now, this could get bumpy.














Dolled up in their St. Paddie's Day best, Teaghan and Maeve enjoy cookies number 6 or 7. We kind of lost count after 4. This pic was taken after the annual Gaelic Mass in Mountain View the weekend before St. Patrick's Day.














Sisters, Aunts, Nieces and Cousins, all at once. This was as close as we could get to having everybody look at the camera and say 'cheese!'.














Nora Jane.














Anne just can't believe that cake is all for her. Maeve and Teaghan can't believe she hasn't already blown out the candles so they can shove it into their mouths.














For our anniversary and her birthday (27), Anne got an iPhone. We're on iPhone number three so far due to various bugs/hardware defects, but so far so good. This thing is amazing. I'm this close to breaking down and joining the iPhone party.














Anne and I on our 7th anniversary with little Anya.














Just another day in the Lynch sandbox. Big kids, little kids. They all love sand. I read that somewhere.














Easter Morning in Redwood City. I'm not sure how the Easter Bunny ended leaving the Easter baskets in our upstairs bathroom, but the kids didn't seem to mind. Chocolate is chocolate.














Teaghan waits patiently for the Easter egg hunt to begin.




















Maeve takes a break from egg hunting to show off her Easter Bonnet.














All the eggs have been found. It's time to sit and eat some of the bounty as the Grandmas look on.




















Daddy, this picture taking is sooooo boring.




















Even so, I'm too cute not to give you a pose like this.














Maeve hasn't quite grasped the whole 'blow out the candles' aspect of a birthday cake. However, she has gotten a handle on the whole 'eat as much cake as I can before they take it away from me' part of the whole process.














Anne and Kathy pose before leaving to see Bon Jovi in San Jose. I know they pulled over as soon as they were out of sight of the house to peg their jeans and put on their vintage 1987 Slippery When Wet Tour T-Shirts.














Another day, another cake for Maeve. She's still not into the blowing out the candles schtick. But that's what mommies and big sisters are for.














Papa Jack helps Maeve with her cake.














Maeve. Princess. Part XXXIII.














Maeve, Mommy and Daddy. We love you!!!!!!!














This kid is all about the smiles.














And her favorite thing to smile at is her big sister.














Daddy and Anya take a little breather. How can you beat that?
