ready for the airport!

all packed and ready to head to the airport!  but most importantly...snack boxes and play dough packed!!! 

till next time new england!

it's been a wonderful trip!  we have seen so many friends and family and it leaves our hearts full.  bowie and arianna getting to play and bond is always the highlight and of course getting to meet sweet brayleigh.  having mimi and papa there makes it extra special since it is a rare occasion for us ALL to be together!

peg dolls!

painted peg dolls with bowie and arianna today, they came out pretty cute!

birthday!

celebrating my birthday in new england means MIKES!!!  thank you to my awesome sister in law jaime for going into the city to pick up my favorite treat!  their canollis are to die for!  bowie was excited to try them and they did not disappoint for her, they are in her blood!

and big thank you to my sister in law elyse for giving me the one gift every mom wants...peace and quiet.  she made me a bath with a glass of wine and a face mask and said "i'll watch the kids, go relax."  

tie dye cuties!

elyse was brave enough to let the girls go crazy with the tie dye, and they came out AWESOME!!!!  they wore these outfits for at least two days straight!

two peas in a pod!

another day another new park!
