Happy Birthday Sophie!!!!!!!

Michelle and Sophie came to visit this weekend so that we could celebrate Sophie's 7th birthday! On Saturday we headed to Natick to go to the American Girl Store. We ate brunch at the Bistro and had a lot of fun being silly! Then we shopped, shopped, shopped. Such a great day!

Me with my 2 favorite people in the whole world:)

What is the difference between these two boys????

33 years.... that's it!

MMMMMMMMmmmmmmmMMMMMMmmmmmmmmMMMMMMMMMmmmmmm........

Tom made the paper:)

He won cutest airbrusher in NH!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!

Mister Toby James at his eye exam... this was the part where they were testing his ability to look goofy... or was it testing if he could see things 3-D? Hmmmmm......

"Fine Mom! You want me to smile AT the camera. Well, here you go!

Take your picture and move on!"

(Pretty sure that was what little T was thinking when I took this photo today!)

BK Roadtrip

Due to all the power outages from the storm, we had to travel to Amesbury, MA to find a BK that was open. (The kids really wanted BK and as you can see, we had to wait and wait for our lunch... lots of places were closed so it was extra busy.)

Bad News Bears!

Last night there was a massive wind storm. We woke up this morning to hear that an entire block was destroyed in a fire at Hampton Beach. Here are a few shots of us looking around town at the damage and HUGE ocean waves.

Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots of Love!

Maddie's Daisy troop made LOTS of Valentine's for a local elderly center. I was so proud of the girl's!

100 Days!

Maddie's school celebrated being in school for 100 days! The other photo is of a piece of art work that she made in art class... a lovely flower.

Pizza Maker Connor making his OWN pizza for dinner!;)

While at the Natick Mall, Maddie and Sophie had mad cash and GC to blow through. Connor wanted to take a ride in the elevator so we could get a family shot in the ceiling mirror. Good stuff! :]

Build a Bear OR Wash a Bear...

While at the Natick Mall, Toby had a GC to the Build a Bear Workshop. His favorite thing in that store is the bear washer. He spent 99% of his time there:)

LEGOS!

As you remember, back in January the Poirier's came down and we went to the Natick Mall. Connor had a GC to the Lego Store. Look closely at the gray lego photo and you will see Connor's face pearing back at you;)

Ba da ba da da.... I'm lovin' it!

We took the kiddos to Micky D's after school one day as a special treat. They were ALL smiles! :)

Gingerbread Houses, and Pizza and Lions... Oh MY!

Maddie's friend, Hayden, invited us over to make gingerbread houses, lunch and playtime. The kids had a really fun time and I drooled over their home. I am so in love with this place!

Chop Chop:)

At the Santa Breakfast there was some face painting. Maddie got eye glitter {WOW!} and Toby got a mean witch. Shocking, I know:)

Christmas revisited,

I just downloaded some photos off my point and shoot and wanted to share a few even though they are a little old. Here are Maddie and Toby at Maddie's school Santa Breakfast. The kids had fun snacking, meeting Santa, shopping for Tom and I and singing carols.

Two of a Kind!

Here are my two babies. Toby just found out that he will need glasses, too. Tom popped the lenses out of an old pair of Maddie's glasses and we are having Toby practice wearing them until his glasses are ready. (These frames that Toby is wearing are the same frames that HIS glasses will be. SO CUTE! )

Musical Girl

Maddie has been learning in her music class how to write music. She raced home Thursday, grabbed some paper, and wrote out this music. Then she grabbed her guitar and played the song for me. I am so proud of my musical girl! She says she wants to be a music teacher when she grows up:)
