Old Forge

Monday we headed up to see Aunt Kim and family in the Adirondacks for the day.  It was a gorgeous day and the kids had sooo much fun!!!

Poor baby boy... again

To continue with being a HORRIBLE mom I took Liam to get his haircut.  Click on here to see the video in whole:)

My Poor Baby Boy!!

A few months back someone introduced me The HairBow Company .  I loved everything and wanted to buy it all for Emma but really what does she need it for so I thought who could I buy a cute outfit for:)   Emma and Liam's cousin Ava (in PA) is turning one next month and I thought PERFECT!  I will get her a cute outfit.  When I got all of it, it looked SUPER tiny and I thought there is no way it will fit! 
Well I have a 17 month old model to try it on... problem is.... HE is a boy!  This mean mommy still had to do it and of course take a picture!  Sorry Liam!!!  Mommy loves you but I did get a chuckle out of these and how I will use them at your graduation and wedding:)

Hopefully Ava likes it better then Liam did!!!

Sorry for torturing you!  I will get you some new trucks to make up for it;)

 

'Queens Friends!!!!

This year we decided to skip heading to the Syracuse Nationals and just heading to one of the hotels that they are all staying at.  Next year we would have dinner and then go and that way she would be able to see a lot more but just seeing a handful was enough for this car fanatic!!!!

I woke her up from her nap and she immediately jumped up and asked if we were going to see Lightening McQueens Friends.  I love how she thinks they are all 'real' and these cars were his friends!   I guess it is no different then a little girl pretending her dolls are real... my little girl just thinks cars are;)

The highlight is Snot Rods Brother;)

Happy Birthday Daddy!

This weekend was Jeff's birthday!  We didn't do anything wild and crazy!!  He spent the day painting the house and I went to a shower for my friend Gena.  When we got back we headed to Skaneateles to walk around and get some dinner.  It was a gorgeous day down there.  Emma got her back to school shoes too:) 

Looking at baby Ducks!

He wanted to get in that water so bad!  I don't blame him!

Throwing in her coins

Trying to give hugs!

Sunday we had the birthday dinner and swimming at Mema and Papa's house!  Jeff got his cheese cake for dessert:)

"Picnic" dinner at Mema and Papa's.  Liam kept inching closer and closer to the food (he already ate!)

Kid Table:)

Wasn't sure what to think about the candle and cheese cake!

Helping daddy!

safe to say.... He

likes it A LOT

Emma was a fan too but tired from swimming:)
