I don't even know where to start, it's been so long! We've had a busy last couple of weeks and I feel like I'm really getting behind on this. Maybe I need to not do 10 on Tuesday for awhile and do mini posts throughout the week so it's not so overwhelming! Who knows.....
1. Our good friends the G family moved to Connecticut this week. Boo. We miss them already. I had a little farewell playgroup last week to give them a proper chaotic send off. I think there were 17 kids running around. But that's so our playgroup--chaotic. It's amazing that when we first started having playgroups, we all only had one child (and they weren't even walking yet). Playgroups were relatively tame and more for our personal socialization. It's been fun to see how much things have changed. Unfortunately I didn't take many pictures (and the ones I did are crappy) so I can't share any here. Double boo.
2. Little J has really started to want to "accessorize" himself. It's so funny with some of the stuff he comes up with. Usually he puts on his boots with just about any outfit. He's finally into his boots and not Miss C's pink ones. Thank goodness. He did feel the need to mow the lawn like this though
He also likes to wear hats. J got him this Boston Red Sox hat so that he could look just like daddy. It's so funny when he realizes that J is wearing his. Little J will run right to his B Town hat and ask to put it on. If the Boston hat isn't around, anything else will do
3. This is a typical Saturday or Sunday morning at our house. Daddy usually makes pancakes for the family. With two toddlers, we always have someone ready and willing to stir the batter
4. We celebrated Little J's birthday this past weekend with a party. It was a joint party with his friend B who turns two next week. We had a whole train theme and even planned for a trackless train to come to the party for train rides. Well, it didn't go as planned. It was supposed to rain on Sunday, so we cancelled all the train plans and had the party at Monkey Joe's instead. All in all, the kids had a great time. Here's Little J playing hoops
Here are the two birthday boys getting ready to blow out the candles. Look at that snickerdoodle on the left. I was just waiting for her to jump in and blow it out for them. That is something she totally would have done.
Here they are enjoying cupcakes
Finally Miss C having a good time
5. Nana and Aunt K came into town for the festivities. Here is little J with Aunt K
6. We also had our good friends the P family come in for the weekend and stay with us. We had a great time with them as usual. Here is little J and his buddy K taking time out for a few snacks. Playing all morning is just so exhausting
7. We brought out the sprinkler and Miss C and her friend M had the best time running around in it. As a bonus, it's cheap entertainment and it waters the lawn at the same time!
8. I'm not sure what she is doing in this picture, but it is so her for some reason. She's been really cracking herself up lately.
9. Again, I have no explanation for this. We had to borrow a ladder from a neighbor to help get a balloon out of the fan (don't ask). I left J and Little J to take care of that task. When I downloaded the pictures, this is what I found. Looks like they had the situation all under control, doesn't it?
10. No, I don't have my stinkin 52 weeks pic. I'm really slackin in that department. But I do have a great #10. I'm going to have a nephew! Uncle M and Aunt J are going to have a baby boy in September. I can't wait!
