What fun would moving week be without sick children......

We tried to go to the beach this morning and when both kids were clingy and starting to feel warm I knew it was time to head home. Guess my mommy insticts were correct since Michelle didn't even make it home before getting sick, my poor baby. Charlie is just as sick but he has an iron stomach. And since you know Charlie you know he doesn't sit still very long let along fall asleep wherever he lands.......







Happy moving week to me!!!

Zooquarium and Playground

We took the opportunity to enjoy the break from rain to go to Zooquarium yesterday. There was still quite a bit of mud but of course the kids didn't care. Michelle went on her first pony ride! She was not sure about it at first but her friend Grace went on and that apparently made it a fun thing to do. She loved it and I LOVE this first picture.



Charlie didn't like the pony ride but he tolerated one loop. He just kept saying, "I don't like the pony ride, I don't like it." I chose not to torture him for too long.


Charlie, Nick and Grace thought making silly noises at the animals to make them "talk" was fun, obviously Michelle wasn't such a fan.





We even managed to get to the playground this week too! Can you believe the rain stopped long enough for us?

Leave it to Nani.....

....to have all sorts of crazy things in her beach bag. The kids loved the silly goggles she brought today.





Charlie loved using Nani's "noculars" to look for planes that were going to pick up Mimi and Grampy in Florida.



We ended the day with our first boat ride. I wish we had a video of Charlie when we started. He has been waiting for this day for weeks now but when we first started out he seemed terrified. He did however feel much more confident when Grampa let him drive.

Charlie vs. a Bee

The bee won....

We had a great morning at Edaville today. Michelle and Charlie even went on some rides all by themselves!!

The Pink Hat Strikes Again

In the midst of cleaning out our front closet and attempting to pack boxes, I came across my pink hat and a vest that was handed down to Charlie. He had to put them both on and parade around the house. He kept telling Michelle he was wearing a "girls hat". I couldn't resist taking a picture of him.



Michelle then decided she need to have a parade with the pink hat on.



Thanks to the pink hat for allowing me to pack some boxes!!!

Memorial Day

We can't believe Memorial Day weekend has come to an end. It must have been a busy one since it is 5:15pm and the kids have been in bed for 20 minutes!! I unfortunately didn't take many pictures until today but we did have a great time catching up with friends and taking in a ball game here and there.

This morning we went to the Memorial Day ceremony at Yarmouth town hall to watch Mike and represent with the honor guard. The kids were so excited to see their Daddy marching.




We then went to see Mimi and Grampy for a cookout at Woods Hole. It was so beautiful sitting outside in the rocking chairs and relaxing after lunch. Grampy was kind enough to take the kids on some golf cart rides which they loved and allowed us to actually relax for a good bit. They came back and had some cookies annd then went for more rides.
