I guess this weather is OK.

Super excited to hang out with Daddy

Sunday = Football

Sharing

Park to ourselves

Nicely done, kind-of-sketchy-park, you look extremely respectable.

We made it down this aisle without buying ANY candy. It’s a Stop and Shop Miracle!

Cat as still life

I live with a bunch of weirdos.

Picture day at school mean cool kid clothes instead of the uniform

I WANNA TAKE THE PICTURE! – tiny selfie addict

Newborn session set up

This is the only picture I have from Thursday. I can’t remember a single thing we did.

Rapunzels.

Newborn set up on Friday (in my own room, where it was ONE BILLION DEGREES…but the baby loved it)

I feel bad for the person whose job it is to keep these tables clean.

Birthday cupcakes for the Cabbage Patch Kids!

Watching trains from the train

Passed out on the Metro North. It was a busy day!

Early morning photo session at the arboretum

Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream at Taste of Mystic

More perfect weather. Well done, Connecticut.

Playing SO NICELY together before school

Daddy met the bus for the first time ever

GO TO CHILI’S AND ORDER THIS THING IMMEDIATELY

Still wicked happy to get on the bus for school every day

Twirling is her favorite

Squeaky clean

I AM READY FOR THE BEACH WHY ARE WE NOT AT THE BEACH?

NOW we are at the beach. He spent 2 hours in the (cold) water.

FASHUN

Imaginary hopscotch

Basically all my pictures are waiting for a bus these days.

Hide and seek! BET YOU CAN’T FIND CAROLINE.

Eat this with cream cheese and/or honey.

BFFs

I can’t help it, this might be my favorite set of photos ever (also, Evan took this, he was like “TAKE A PICTURE OF THE PRINCESS!!!”)

“Daddy made yummy pancakes!” he says in the pancake restaurant.

Fairy Princess Caroline reads to Candy Crush Dragon Daddy

And Daddy reads to the gingers

My very make-shift newborn set up in a client’s apartment. I’m pretty proud of my fake-studio skills.

BABY FEVER: LEVEL CODE DOUBLE RED ACHIEVED

Dancing to the band at Hot Summer Fun on the roof of the Mohegan Sun parking garage

One of those Top 10 for Kids is probably a bad idea.

Surreptitious grilled cheese eating

For someone who BEGGED for mac and cheese, that face is not happy enough

She said her first day of school sign says “Caroline goes to big girl school”

A pumpkin mocha iced latte, that’s what

Hand stamping some thank you cards to go in my fancy professional type photographer packaging

Protecting Brutus from a thunder storm

Then we went to the beach…

Then we went to the country….

…so it’s not surprising Wednesday looks like this….

…and this. (They both went to school Wednesday and I went to work, there are just no iPhone photos.)

The definition of “partly cloudy” – and pretty good for a family session

Greek food, get in my face

Sun-streaking

Because that’s what stickers are for.

The pavilion at Rocky Neck all opened up for a wedding

Well done Connecticut (with an assist by Long Island in the background)

Model poses

She would ride the carousel ALL DAY if they let her

I promised him a bouncy house but it was gone, so I finally FINALLY bought him the light up bubble gun he’s asked for at every fair and carnival and festival and parade we’ve been to for the last year.

Apparently this is the only photo I took on Sunday. I can’t even remember Sunday. Did Sunday even happen?

Nothing like a nuclear power plant to add to my scenic beach photos

I love this beach

The most adorable ice cream and candy store in the world

She changed her mind about the birds. NO BIRDS, MOMMY.

Sea lion show. My kids can name all the sea lions.

Grilled cheese of the day: Basil pesto, artichokes, tomatoes, mozzarella on Italian bread.

In this episode, Spiderman joins S.H.I.E.L.D. I had to Google to find out if that was accurate (it is).

Evan’s favorite part of his new school: cool sinks.

Orientation is EXHAUSTING.

Ready to go!

The cat loves Caroline

This is her “WE’RE GETTING CHEESEBURGERS!” face

Playing “Tick-tock croc eats Captain Hook!” while we wait for the bus

She is loving our outside play time while we wait for the bus. It makes me feel bad we never use our (very tiny) front yard.

What do you wear when it’s 80 degrees?

Craft store…

…pretzel burger…

…and Sherlock. PERFECT SATURDAY.

A rare Suzanne sighting IN one of my pictures.

Couch naps at the lake – sleeping like a baby.

Oh, it’s cold and cloudy? NO1CURR. We want to swim.

Evan decided mint chocolate chip is his favorite, which was totally my favorite as a kid too.

IT’S SO GOOD ONCE IT HITS YOUR LIPS.

Watching my kids play with my old toys in my old house is always weird.

Jersey Plates: FISTPMP (I was stopped, traffic was terrible)

This is how she feels about cheeseburgers

The moon is far less impressive in this picture, but was very cool. You’ll just have to trust me.

Hands in her pockets.

Don’t let her face fool you, she luuuuuvs frozen yogurt.

An evening walk-run-roll in the grass

For a kid who was having a TON OF FUN, that’s a pretty strong side-eye.

MISSER TATO HEAD!!!

Dancing at the winery – they fell down a lot for people who weren’t even drinking.

DRIVE THRU STARBUCKS DRIVE THRU STARBUCKS IN MY TOWN! And whatever this peach green tea lemonade thing is is delicious.

What are these candies shaped like rings?? What sorcery is this?!?!?!

Gorgeous night for a photo shoot at the beach.

Princesses love strawberries for breakfast.

As close as I get to a day off – letting them destroy the house and watch TV.

Evening walk. Still in royal princess garb.
