A visit from Didi & Grandaddy...

I have been very busy this past week. Didi & GRandaddy were here and we had so much fun! We enjoyed a "choo-choo" ride on the Essex Steam Train and followed that up with a ride on a big boat along the Connecticut River, made appearances at some birthday parties and played in my swimming pool. I love having them here to read me stories and watch Curious George over and over.:):) Unfortunately they headed back to TN this morning, I miss them already!!

Swim lessons are back in session...

I had a few weeks off but now we are back in business. I have been pretty excited about starting swim lessons at a new YMCA with new instructors. I am the oldest one in my new class so I really have to have my "A" game on, the babies are looking to learn a few things from me.:)

I knew Daddy would love this place!

So as I expected, Daddy really enjoyed Lake Mohegan. We had so much fun running in the sprinkler, playing on the slide and swimming in the lake. I love this place!

Lake Mohegan

Mommy has hooked us up for the summer! This place has a playground, really big sprinkler system, lots of sand to dig in, and a huge lake to play in. Today me and Portia (and mommys too) had a great time. I can't wait to take Daddy, he will love it.

Happy Birthday to Ella, Aidan, Scarlett & Kate!

Today was such a big day for many of my friends... everybody is turning 2 so quickly. As you can see we enjoyed a great party complete with lots of play, lunch, arts & crafts and CAKE! Thanks to Ella and her Mommy for hosting and Happy Birthday to all my friends.

2 year old update...

for those interested, I had my 24 month appointment w/ Dr. Lori Friday and all is great. I weighed in at 28 lbs-8.5 oz and I am 35 1/2 inches tall. I passed my developmental quizes with no problem, thank goodness Dr. Lori had on a "GAREEEN" shirt.:) Those that know me, know I call everything green first. I did run into a problem, the nurse came in yet once again with needles! I was not even phased by the fingerstick but the shots in the leg simply made me MAD. Oh well, I recovered quickly and all was good in about 45 seconds.
