Happy Anniversary Isis and Kevin!  One year already! So many changes - keep smiling and enjoying each other and the chaos of life! After a late night I expected the girls to sleep a bit.  Ha!  I no sooner started a workout on the elliptical when the pitter patter (really thunder!) was heard from the kids.  Paul sent them to me.  I sent them back up to get their books to read while I finished.  So they read sitting in beach chairs while asking me a zillion questions.   Then it was their turn of course (in pajamas no less!)                    Emily managed 0.5 miles.                                                       Brianna did 0.25 miles. They each cooked their own breakfast - fried eggs, toast and pineapple.   Then time fo...

                              While I was at a doctor's appointment, Paul, Fenway and the girls walked around the                                         Amica complex.                                                                                 Emily and Brianna                          Leaving Lincoln early to grab the girls and Fenway our view was quite foggy.                           ...

After an early rise and early departure, we headed to RI.  The goal today - help Megan complete the nursery organization and figure out what is missing.  Thank you Aunty Karen for the help and the Winnie the Pooh accessories!  Thank you Layla for helping entertain the girls and keep them busy!                                                                      A diaper holder turned toy bag.                                                    Curtains were pulled and I will attempt to make Valances from the crib bumper.  (Bumpers were okay when we had babies but now are no longer recommended.  So - I will try sewi...

 Happy Birthday Thomas!  It seems like just yesterday you were in the cupboard!  Love the smile and the "up to no good" attitude! Another beautiful day here and with no rain in sight we planned a full day of work.  How can the summer be nearing the end?   Since the parts for the boat are days away from arriving, we covered the "holes" to prevent critters from taking advantage.                                                        Parts are waiting in the basement for reassembly.                And the boat is covered and tarped under the new carport until it's time to begin again.                                           ...
