May not be sanitary...

BUT....   











It was CUTE and Funny

I honestly think Emma believes she is part dog!  She OBSESSED with dogs.  She will stay up in her crib at night talking and howling to who knows what!  I just laughed when I saw her doing this.  After we took the pictures I said lets not do that it is yucky.... 
I am sure she will be back doing it again tomorrow!

Pool time with Daddy!




All by herself!!!

SO PROUD!

swimming like a doggy;) Everything includes a dog with her!


Can't forget this precious boy.  He was hanging in the shade


You are the BEST daddy!!!

Our lil' Roly Poly!

PURE HAPPINESS!!!


His smile is the best sight and the laugh is the best sound!!  I hope this happiness continues!!!

Helping Daddy!

Miss Emma is such a daddy's girl. She wants to do whatever he does...even clean up dog poop! I wonder if she will still want to do this in 10 years! She insisted on a shovel and bag:)













She did not get too far:)

What is for dinner

Delicious looking... right??? :)

avocado it is:)

I think he approved!
Two avocado's made enough for a few meals
By the look on his face I think he will have it again:)

4 month update

We are already behind on Liam's well baby check-ups.  I am ok with that because it was a longer time for me to have to see him cry from shots:)
He did great there.  When it was time for the shots he got his puckered lip ready but his cry only lasted for a few seconds!
Dr. Ruffa walked in and looked at him and said WOW!  He is LONG!  He sure is!!!  Liam was 27.5 inches (99%) and 16lbs (55%) and his head was 17in (66%).  As a friend of mine said "all 55% is in those cheeks."  Emma had plump cheeks as well but his are to die for they are so cute!!
Dr. Ruffa then asked about his sleeping.  I said he was doing great.  She asked how long does he sleep at night.  I said about 12 hours or so.  She just looked at me and said 12 hours!!!  Without getting up???  Liam wakes just to get his pacifier or if he has flipped onto his belly and can't flip back.  so it is just a quick wakeup.  She said we may not want to tell any friends that he is sleeping that long because they may defriend us:)  Last night he went to bed at 5:30 and woke up about 8:15 this AM!  I always found with Emma she slept great after shots.  Looks like he is following in her footsteps!

We started cereal about 2 weeks ago and we got the go ahead to start fruits and veggies.  Today Emma helped me mash up some avocado to feed Liam.  She was so excited to give it to him.   Not sure why but the whole time we were in the grocery store she held the bag of avocado and said Liam Eat! Liam Eat!....  Maybe she remembers how boring plain ole cereal was!

He just wants to get her so bad.  I am thinking LOTS of Yelling in the future!



 









Happy Anniversary to us!

What a great 3 years (and busy) it has been. We have been through a bit in 3 years... We have been through moves (2), change of jobs... (too many) and babies!!

Obviously there are a million pictures that I love from that day and weekend but here are just a few:)

My bridesmaids were 3 friends from High School, My neighbor growing up, my sister and the flower girl is who I was a nanny for from the time she was just a few weeks until I started teaching
The Guys:)

My dress
I absolutely loved my dress.  Looking at it still brings a smile to my face.  It was nothing like what I thought I would pick!

One of my favorites!
























Aidan and Maurita!  The two cutest little ones at the wedding:)  They stole the show!
Love this little guy!  Can't believe he is going into 1st grade!!
PICTURES IN SKANEATELES



The Lodge, Skaneateles, NY
I truly loved this place and it was the only location that I wanted for the wedding.  I was so happy that they had a date available for it!!



 Some of the details

Instead of the 'traditional' guest book we had people write a little message and I put them together in a scrapbook afterward.
This was a gift that was given to us at the rehersal dinner.  My sister sent letters to family and friends and they made a scrapbook page with memories they had with either Jeff and I or both.  It was so much fun to see and such a great gift.  I love it.  Once the kids are older I can display it but for now it is in the bin with the wedding and everything else I don't want them to get their hands on. 
It means so much that family and friends took the time to do this for us!
 





A few more of us:)

It has been such a wonderful three years!  There isn't anyone else I would want to be taking this journey of life with.  Hoping we have MANY MANY more years of happiness and HEALTH with each other and our family!!
I LOVE YOU!
