Another Weekend!

We had a great time this weekend! Friday we went on a family bike ride to look at that train and get ice cream. EC was pretty much in heaven! Saturday was Adam and Marissa's engagement party. It was a neighborhood pack so Em had free range of a huge playgrounds, so yeah life doesn't get much better! Sunday we hit up the Taste of Tremont (so good!) and hung out with Aunt Caitlin and Uncle Opa! And is super duper OMG can't believe it news-EC is potty training. Yesterday she woke up, told Daddy she had to go potty and has been using the potty ever since. She hasn't had an accident yet (we did use a diaper over night) and has gone 1 and 2 in the potty (sorry if this is TMI...but Moms out there are proud!). Hopefully she keeps it up. What a sweetheart!

Beautiful Little Girl!

Our crazy child!

EC and Daddy sleeping (sorry for the bad quality-didn't want to turn on the light). EC came in at 5:30 this morning and decided to spend her next two hours of sleep in our bed. She kept telling Daddy to scoot over, scoot over. As you can see I also was not left much room! 

NYC!

This past weekend Chris and I took a trip to NYC, just the two of us. We had a ton of fun-but I quickly learned that I'm not a big city girl! It is true, that town never sleeps (and you all know how much I love to sleep!) It was also super hard being away from my baby girl, but she had a lot of fun with Nana and Grandma. So thankful for the one on one time with Chris and the memories we made. Happy to be home!

Enjoying a snack poolside!

Beautiful Girl!

Yummy eats!

Craft time!

And sleep!

NYC! We went and saw Once on Broadway-this is how stinking close we were (taken on an iphone-no zooming in). We got Rush tickets the morning of-and great seats and huge discount!

Eataly (AKA Heaven...look at all that pasta!)

Central Park-Chris decided it would be a great idea to do a bike ride around central park-guess what Central Park is HUGE and hilly (and you only get the bikes for 1 hour or you have to pay extra) yeah...my legs were burning! :) 

Other notable things we did (just so I can look back in the future!)

*Comedy Club (actually really funny and I'm not a huge stand up fan) 

*Chelsea Market (kind of like an Artisan West Side Market-very cool. One of my favorite places

*AMAZING FOOD (Chinese, Pizza, NY cheesecake. I would have felt super guilty if it hadn't been for all of the walking we did!)

*Empire State Building

*9/11 Memorial (wow-so breathtaking-oh and I totally balled like a baby. Very moving)

*Time Square 

*Statue of Liberty 

Vacation!

Vacation!! What could be better? I think the pictures say it all, but we had a pretty amazing week!

Our new backyard pool-great but freaking cold! :)

Uncle Adam and EC taking a nap with their lovies!

Yummy!

Pure joy!

Happy Family!

So silly!

Spinning tea cups!

OMG I get to meet Daniel Tiger!

Too happy!

oh and now terrified!

Poor EC. Not that you'd know if from the pics below, but EC had an awful ear infection. We thought last weekend something might be up since she was having bad sleeping, but seemed fine during the day. On Wednesday night, she hardly slept at all, and kept pulling her ear. Yep, awful ear infection, confirmed by the doctor. We started meds on Thursday (oh, btw my 30th...yep, I'm old now) and she had a pretty miserable day. Which ended in me covered in throw up (her's not mine. Happy Birthday). Friday she was in much better spirits and by Saturday she was once again a maniac. So Sunday we spent some quality time at the splash pad. She was pretty much in heaven! Love that little girly girl!

Loving the sunshine (who isn't!) EC had a fun weekend. We got to hang out with Caitlin and Uncle Opa on Friday night, dance the day away at Porchfest on Saturday and hang out with the whole family on Sunday to celebrate my birthday. It was really a perfect weekend. Oh, except for EC had a very rough sleeping weekend (which meant mommy and daddy were on the sleepy side). On Saturday she woke up at 6am (totally not ok for the weekend kid!) then Saturday night she was up from about 1-4am and threw up. She seemed totally fine after that, so maybe just a little bug. Then Monday night EC wanted nothing to do with going to bed-and didn't fall asleep until about 10 (usually she is sleeping by 7:30). Not sure if it is a little bug, or if she is just being a bugger.

Just love this little girl! So beautiful! :)

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all of the great daddy's out there! Especially Emma Clare's Daddy, he is pretty amazing! We had a great weekend just hanging out. Chris and I went to the Zac Brown Band concert on Saturday (early birthday present for me!) and it was AMAZING. Such a good show! We had great seats.

Emma Clare and Daddy drinking smoothies and watching soccer. Can life get better? 

Great Concert! This is also the closest I've ever been to the stage at Blossom! Guess we're growing up since we didn't get lawn seats!

A Few Photos!

We finally got our computer back, so uploaded some photo's of Kathleen and Patrick's baby shower. Joanne's house is so beautiful, perfect location! Enjoy! I put the rest up on shutterfly so take a look if you'd like! https://emmaclaremullen.shutterfly.com/
