the fun continues...

here's the latest:  we had fun hanging out at beaver brook running through the sprinklers and playing at the park. maisy and cousin aidan love swimming in the pool at grammy and grandads.  thanks to my friend stacie, we found kick a** cupcakes in somerville.  cupcakes were ok, nothing like sprinkles in california. finally, on tuesday we headed to the beach in rockport. it was a beautiful day and the kids had a wonderful time. a couple more trips planned... of course i'll keep you updated.

east coast love...










so we have been having fun here in cambridge. the weather has been FABULOUS! we went to the franklin park zoo, fun day. my brother stephen, sister-in-law amanda and I went to see clem snide at the middle east (i miss my middle east days) really good time. found out the field has a patio (not a joke). we had an AWESOME storm with lots of lightening. the family made a trip to the boston public gardens, i just love this picture of grandad with all his grandkids. and of course my pretty much daily dose of dunkin' donuts iced coffee!
much more to do, keep checking for more pictures.

the first of many...

yesterday was a big day in two ways... david's brother aaron got married, and miles lost his first tooth!!!  we were having corn on the cob for dinner. miles was eating and all of a sudden he says "mom, why is there blood on my corn." i looked in his mouth, and his tooth was missing. we looked on his plate, in his mouth and on the corn, and there was no tooth to be found. we think he swallowed the tooth. sad, because i want to keep all of the kids teeth when they fall out. we told miles that even though he didn't have his tooth, the tooth fairy would still come and she did. he was very excited to look under his pillow in the morning.  the funny thing is he didn't even know he had a lose tooth. pretty exciting day!

our summer to do list...

when doing my daily blog reading, i came aross this idea on the blog 1825, now i didn't want to go as far as they did, but i liked the idea of writing down what we wanted to do this summer. so that's just what we did.  we have already started to check things off the list too. for example miles and david have been "camping" in the back yard. the first night miles made it until 2:30 am then he was in my bed and last night he made it until 5:30 am. we asked if he wanted to sleep out there again tonight, his answer... "i think i'll sleep in my own bed." maisy tried to sleep out there too, but she just couldn't settle down. maybe next summer...
