This Saturday we had our annual summer party. While it was smaller than normal due to a lot of people not being able to make it, we still had a fun time, ate too much and played plenty of beer pong! I think Evan was trying to learn how to play and taking notes! The kids enjoyed the kiddie pool...

This month was all about having fun and being silly. Evan started walking a few weeks ago and hardly ever crawls anymore. He is cutting more teeth, his molars, which isn’t too much fun but Evan still spends the majority of his time being a goof ball. We have so much fun together and are really enjoying the nice weather....

Nicole was on vacation this week and asked Evan and I to join her for a day at the beach. We were very excited to do so and Daddy was a little jealous. But as a result of not having any meetings at work, he decided to take a vacation day to join us. Boy, did we have fun! It...

Evan loves to watch all the kids across the street play in their yards. Whenever they are outside (and often when they are not) he waves to them and talks to them from our yard. He has even started looking for them when we are in the house. Sometimes I think he wishes he were old enough to play with...

Would you want to leave this sweet little face at day care every day so that you can go to work? No? Me neither! That's why I will be staying at home with this very special little man! I know it won't always be fun and it won't always be easy but it will always be worth it! I love...

We had a lot packed into this holiday weekend and while it didn’t go exactly as expected (what ever does when you have a toddler), all in all it was a great weekend. Friday night we had an adults night out with our RI friends in honor of Glenn being home from DC. This is something that doesn’t happen often...

The sweetest sound you'll ever hear (in between some whining)

Evan and I had a great day today visiting the Wheeler’s. We were excited to meet the twins, Madelyn and Derek, who were born in February, and excited as always to see Dylan and Michelle. It was a relatively low-key visit…as low-key as it can get with a 2-year old, a one-year old and two 4 month olds. All of...
