My Little Fish

We've been spending pretty much part of every day at the pool this summer. And on the days we don't go, Ollie asks over and over when we're going to go again. And very time we get in the car Vivi asks, "Go pool?"

Only a few short weeks ago, Ollie insisted on wearing his floatie even in the baby pool and wouldn't get his face anywhere near the water.

This is now, after countless hours at the pool and only three swim lessons in:

He LOVES it!
 

So proud of you Ollie!

We Moved!



Yeah, yeah, that's such old news! Mama has all sorts of plans to back-date a bunch of posts about our pre- and post-moving adventures and visitors over the last three months, but meanwhile, let's just try to keep up with where we're at now, shall we Mama?

Unpacking.


Visiting Papa at work.


Soaking in some rays. Every. Day. (More on that later.)

Making funny faces.


And having fun together like usual.

Summer Thunderstorms with Alyson

Stay up late. Turn off the lights. Watch some lightning. Have a photo shoot. We are really going to miss our wonderful babysitter.

Alyson made this awesome puzzle for the kids so they'll still get to play with her when we move.

5 Days. Only 5 days until we move. Luckily the kids will have one last long day with Alyson when the movers are here. Starting to say goodbye to everyone is really sad for us. Maybe when we're in NC and haven't made any new friends yet, Mama will finally make time to post our year's worth of back logged photos of all our growing over the last year and all our fun adventures and all our wonderful friends here. Leaving our friends is the hardest part. We're really sad to be moving far away from all of them and will miss them every day.

"I try!"

Is what Vivienne says to everything she sees her big brother doing...

And she's tried several times. Usually right before she pees on the rug.

Last Stop in Coney

Before we head off to live in the wilds of North Carolina in 3 weeks (!!!) we are trying to fit in some NYC favorites. A trip to Coney Island was on the top of our list.

Road trip


All smiles, little did she know that we were going to drive 12 hrs to NC. 

Other than learning a new filter on the iPhone, we found out that sometimes you need a break no matter the destination....like picnicking in a Podunk bi-rite parking lot somewhere in NC. 

Yeah
