First trip to the cabin

It was the perfect trip to the cabin, only thing missing was daddy!  We had delicious dinners prepared by Josh, cozy fires, strawberry shortcake, walks to Fields Point and lots of fun with cousin Emma and Lily.

Grandma told us all about the lady of the lake and we waved.

Elise loved trying avocado and some of it actually went down!  Emma was a big girl helper.

Scary monster face!



Auntie Pinky carried Elise for a nice walk to Fields Point!

Party at grandma's

This past Tuesday grandma Connie had a special gathering at her house where all of the cousins and friends were able to finally meet the new babies of the past year ~ Bo 9 months, Elise almost 5 months and Lily 2 1/2 months.  Emma (2 1/2) and Rocco (almost 3) were old pros and were so sweet to their newest family members.  Many aunties, uncles and friends were also able to join for this fun affair.  Ava, who is 3, was such a cutie with her beautiful red her; we can't wait to move close to have a play buddy for Elise!  It is so much fun to see all of the different personalities in our kidos.  I have to say though it is a whole different ball game trying to take photos of toddlers, I need a lot of practice.... poor Rocco isn't represented very well, he is always on the move at high speeds, hard to capture:)  Thanks for such a great party.

Nothing like Bainbridge in the summer time

Evan and I have always loved loved loved going to Bainbridge Island - there is just something so serene about boarding the ferry and in thirty minutes feeling like you're away from the caos of city living.  Wandering through Winslow and grabbing a bite to eat at Docs followed by ice cream at Mora, so delicious.  Since Evan has been hidden away in the library, so proud of him for working his hiney off, Elise and I had a great afternoon with babicka L and dedecek P, mom and dad.  It was absolutely a perfect day.

Finally a picture of all three of us... can you find mommy?

Four Months Old

Time is just flying by and our sweat pea is four months old today, just can't beleive it.  Now drooling on everything, smiling, laughing and even babbling she melts our hearts every day.  Love this little one.
