Our Little Model...

...I think the pictures say enough...




First Day of Preschool

Abby started preschool this year and is doing great. She's having fun and Mommy is actually enjoying some time with just Ally & Aidan. Abby goes to school from 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. two days a week. Abby is very comfortable now at school, but Ally is still having some concerns with Abby being gone. She cries when Abby leaves and then on the way home she talks about Abby's car seat and then all morning talks about going to school to pick Abby up and then on the way to school she talks about Abby's car seat again. She really misses her sister, but I'm sure she will get more used to the idea over the coming weeks and will end up enjoying her time with Mommy once she figures out she has me all to herself. So far, she's just been clingy. :)




A Weekend at the Shore!

We spent last weekend at the shore...we love the advantage of living on the East Coast and the ability to get to the shore within a couple of hours or so. The only unfortunate part is tropical storms & hurricanes! We left last Saturday during Tropical Storm Hanna not too shore how our time at the shore would be, but we were just excited to spend some time away as a family. We got to the shore mid-afternoon and just a couple hours after we arrived, the rain stopped. It was still windy, but we were able to get a little Saturday evening and walk the boardwalk. Then, on Sunday & Monday, the weather was gorgeous & we really the weekend filled with times on the beach, the swimming pool at the hotel and even some napping. It was a nice weekend!

3 Months Old!

Today, Aidan is 3 months old! It's so hard to believe 3 months have gone by already! It's been a great day, too! First, he slept through the night last night (9:30 p.m.-6:30 a.m.)! Mommy's really more excited about that than anyone else. Then, this morning I decided to spend some tummy time with Aidan, and then he rolled over!!! and he wouldn't stop rolling over!!! Every time I put him back on his tummy he'd roll over! This is a big deal for me, because both of the girls never rolled over until they crawled...and then they would only roll over to crawl.

Here are pictures I snapped of the first time he rolled over....





SURPRISE!!!

Last Sunday night, I threw a surprise party for David's 30th birthday & the completion of his Master's Degree. It was a great time with friends and I was so glad that I could do this for him. He's worked so hard to complete his schooling and I'm really very proud of him. There were about 75 people that came & we just a blast hanging out & eating!!! We thank you all for coming and celebrating with us.

Here are a few pictures...








Summer Fun!!

I know I had a pretty big span of time there that I wasn't blogging....so here are some updates as to what we've been doing this summer!

First off...Abby turned 4 on July 25th & wow has she grown up just since then! It's amazing to hear some of things she says now...just all of a sudden! We had a little party for her the Saturday before her birthday & here are some pics of her day!
















We also spent a day at a little zoo nearby...
