So long NECC!

Well, after a wonderful 11 years- it is finally time for me to move on.  Caelin too, as she has enjoyed attending the NECC daycare for the past 2 years.  Pretty sure the separation was a bit harder on the Bug than on me- saying so long to her buddies wasn't easy.  Fortunately, her best buddies Emmett and Reese are close by and we plan to have regular play dates to keep the "triple threat" together!  And so we move on....Mommy is off to be an Assistant Principal and Caelin is off to her new school where she and Finley will join their good friends Makenna and Colby. 

"Triple Threat"

 So long Chippies!



Take my picture!!!

Just a few pic's of the girls from the past month.  Caelin has never cared too much about having pictures taken but now if we take a picture of Finley, she makes sure to request hers is taken too!  Got to love these two...they are too cute!

Too cute:)

 Someone has a favorite hat...go Red Sox!

 Post bathtime tummy time

 Thanks Nana, I love my new sunglasses:)

 Finn on the other hand isn' so sure about them:)



Buggy has BIG news!

Buggy has some big news to share with you all...."I want underwears peez"!  So yesterday we went to visit Bailey and go to the beach.  Auntie Kara took out Bailey's special potty at the beach and well Caelin couldn't get enough of it.  After she went 3 times that day we left the beach, put a diaper on her and headed home.  No big deal- right?  She had gone on the potty a bunch before Finley was born so we figured she was just getting back into trying it.  The next morning she woke up and said "I want underwears peez"!  Lucky for us, Mum had bought a few pairs for when she was ready - and so we gave it a try.  And that was that- no turning back!  We bought a ton more 'underwears' and since then Caelin has been diaper free!  Two accidents in the first week but none since  She wakes up every morning and scream at us that her diaper is "so dry" so I guess we can move to get rid of them at night too! Way to go Bug Star- you ROCK!



Way to go Bug Star!



Feed Me!!

As we quickly approach 6 months, Finley is finally getting a taste of what she has been trying to get at for months (yes- no joke this kid was ready to eat at a month old)!  So...out comes the gourmet rice cereal and.....Yeachh.  Finn wasn't too impressed, she's kept at it for a little over a week but thus far she isn't biting.  We are pretty sure she is holding out for some of Caelin's mac-n-cheese or better yet an ice cream! 

Not was she expected :(

 ...but willing to try again:)



Summer 2011

What a great summer it's been!  Between trips to the beach, blueberry picking and plenty of play dates to the playground the YF's have been busier than ever.  A definite highlight of the summer (as can be seen in our freezer) was blueberry picking.  Caelin went for the first time with her buddy Alex and within minutes had it down pat- carry around a big empty milk jug, pick a few and toss them in and then eat an excess amount along the way!  The next time the whole crew went and even Finn had some fun.  She just started to sit up a little and so she hung out in the grass and loved to watch Caelin run around.  We have tried out a few new playgrounds this summer and also tried out the Splash Pad in a nearby town.  While Caein wasn't so interested in the splashing around in the water she loved laughing at the kids who got 'sneak attacked' by the sprinklers!

Watch out Big Apple Farm....here comes Team Trouble!

 Perfect for picking!

 "It's so BIG"!
