Happy Thanksgiving 2010..up in WI!

Happy, happy thanksgiving..and what a happy one it was! For the first time ever, we drove wayyyy up north where my three brothers live and stayed with my baby brother in his brand new, very first, home!
Although I'm sure we drove him nuts,esp with all the crap you need to take when you have two in tow, which ended up in every corner of his brand new home....
We had, as Charlie quoted on the way home, "the very best Thanksgiving ever"!
Thanks to Uncle Dougie and our soon to be "Aunt" "Annie"(as Soph insists on calling her)
We love you both so very much and thank God for you in our lives xoxoxoxo

Seasame Street Live 2010!

We had so much fun this past wkend when Seasame Street visited our town! I wasnt sure how Sophie would do, but she did great! And believe it or not, Charlie really liked it too! I had vivid flashbacks from my childhood when my parents took me and my 3 brothers, and it was funny b/c as a child, I distinctly remember being terrified when Big Bird came down into the audience...so terrified that my dad had to take me and one of my brothers, Corey, out of the auditorium screaming in fright :0) lol! And some things never change, b/c Big Bird still walks down into the crowd..only this time, I didnt scream in fright, I only laughed at my funny childhood memory....and we were up high enough, so Soph had no time for fear!
The second pic down of her pouting was her reaction when "melmo" went away and the show was over! She loved it that much!

Playdate at the Firefly Cafe!

Soph and I had a super fun morning meeting some good friends at a cool new indoor playpark/coffee cafe!
