A Spin Around the Hood with T, M & C

 

Last week Thomas and Caroline came by for a few hours to play and it was a wild, wild time, as usual when those three get together.

 


Thomas got a chance to see what the view is like from Maggie’s high chair. He showed his approval by enjoying a variety of snacks.

At some point Maggie lost her pants and ended up taking Caroline and Thomas for a spin in the Radio Flyer.

Caroline was a sport and let Mags take her for a ride.

Because it was a wild and crazy day Thomas decided to let Maggie take a break and give her a taste of her own medicine.

It was nice to see Lara and Nicole too, but they aren’t pictured in all the shenanigans….too bad because they looked pretty cute on the Radio Flyer.

Be Kind, Rewind

Time really does fly when you’re having fun. We’ve had a chance to meet up with tons of  Maggie’s buds lately and have hardly documented it. This post is all over the place with an attempt to play catch-up. Two points to  you if you can make it to the end!!

ELIANNA

Waayyyy back when Maggie was not even 11 months old yet we got a chance to go meet baby Elianna, who belongs to Adam and Alyssa. She was the sweetest little cherub and Maggie only tried to pinch her three times. It was St. Patrick’s Day afterall.

Both Barry and I remarked who quickly we had forgotten what it was like to have a true BABY and that it seems SO long ago that we were living in a two-hour window of wakings and feedings. It was really sweet to see Adam and Alyssa and their precious bundle. We look forward to many, many more playdates with them! Yahooey!

THOMAS, CAROLINE & MAGS TOGETHER AGAIN

Thomas and Caroline are coming over today and I haven’t even been able to share a photo from the last time we all got together. Caroline is growing like a little weed (a very beautiful weed, but weeds grow fast around here) and Thomas seemed all grown up in his plaid sweater. It was the first time that we’ve had to really block the stairs from Thomas and Mags, but of course Thomas wedged himself through the opening and Maggie followed quickly behind. All bets off once Caroline starts crawling.

DAXTEN &  CARTER!!!

A couple days ago we also got to go visit Suzanna, her parents and adorable boys, Daxten and Carter. We got to meet Daxten on the day that he was born, but haven’t had a chance to see him again since that day. Ironically, that was the last day I got my hair cut and the second time I got to see him I again cut my hair. Guess I’ll need to schedule to see him when I’m going to sculpt my do. Maggie decided that she wanted to test out Daxten’s pacifier even though she has NEVER taken one from us. Stinker.

SUNSHINE & RAIN

The weather here has been playing tricks on us with tons of rain,  but last week a sparkle of sun. We busted outside quickly to soak up the rays, only to notice the huge cloud cover moving on in. Today is gloomy again, but we just know that sunny days are right around the corner ~ I can hardly wait. Thom and Caro are nearly at our door step, so I’ll have to do another re-cap some other day. I’ll leave you with a soggy flower shot.

The Results Are In!

In lieu of a long-winded description of what went down today – I am encouraging you to scroll down a bit and see for yourself. If your heart doesn’t break a little bit for poor Thomas, you might have a heart of stone. I again ask you to ignore the grain and blur of the photos.  Phooey on bad photos, but these are too precious to ignore.

Really, nobody crossed the finish line, but Thomas was mighty close. In all honesty, had he not had a meltdown, he would have won. Lara had to rescue him and he just needed to take a break from hanging out with the girls, I guess.

Meanwhile, Caroline was a bit upset that the long-awaited and much talked about Crawl-Off wasn’t going down.

She has been waiting months to see this show-down. Until next time, Sweet Caro, until next time.

Maggie is limbering up as we speak and Thomas is probably taking a hot bubbly bath.
