Lake Compounce!

Now he needs a teeny tiny leather jacket

If I had remembered to bring my knitting, this traffic would have been a lot less annoying. For me. E was driving.

Angry Birds on the iPad

Angry Birds in real life. They're scary.

Demanding we walk down to see the vegetables at Town Farm

Watcha doin' mama? Can I play? Can I can I can I?

Get me out! I think he's gonna poop!

Jazz Hands!

Hanging at the lake, stuffing pickled cabbage into his face. You know, normal toddler stuff.

Caroline is "pre-loving" the projects I'm knitting

Hotness. Literally, it was really hot & I was at Stroller Strides.

Awesome lunch: homemade black bean & corn salsa, avocado and crab in a sundried tomato wrap. Low fat & SUPER filling.

Hung out at the yarn shop all day & managed to finish my shawl

YARD SALE YARD SALE! It looked promising but whoever priced all the junk seems to think "old and broken" meant the same thing as "pricess antique"

My friend Miranda blogged about these, so when I saw them on clearance I HAD to buy them.

I got my hair trimmed, and then took this picture with the AC blowing in my face for maximum Cosmo cover effect. Ask me for my 10 tips to make your crush think about you while he's on vacation!

My super glamorous life: reading books and pumping breastmilk

I let the cats out of the basement but it was too hot so they sulked around for an hour before going back down

Colored ice cubes at playgroup

Chubby leg nap

E is still taking a photography class, so he takes a lot of random pictures

Getting ready for our monthday photoshoot

Veggies at our CSA pickup

Getting ready for a day full of...nothing

This game is called "bebeh drive boat" and it is Little Evan's FAVORITE

Getting my craft on with beads and ribbon

Big girl can stand all by herself

North Lake, on the SubBase. It was PERFECT for the kids - Evan loved it.

Caroline loved the sand. Especially eating it.

So, I bought this. And I did it. It is...not so good. I'm hoping it fades.

What, don't you sleep with a tiny light saber?

Poor choices

I went to Hot Topic. I felt really, really old and uncool.

Whoever did this to the toys at the craft store is full of win.

Star Trek on the iPad, knitting myself a summer shawl. I am the world's most confused dork.

I got free deoderant from the internet.

Day on the boat included a trip to the secret marina in Gales Ferry

The marble game! We will teach you to play, but E will yell at you for doing it wrong.

Tug of War. Caroline won.

To really drive a speed boat corectly he's going to need a beer and a sunburn.

Chubby arm

Grocery shopping. My what a lot of carbs you have.

No YOU'RE wearing mismatched pajamas!

Kisses from a friend at Stroller Strides

Chillin' in the only room with A/C and a tv - our super messy bedroom

I made a mess! Look how happy I am!

My official water sprayer at Stroller Strides

Temp at 9 am. Blerg.

Sibiling bath time is now everyone's favorite part of the day - they love the tub and I love that it means it's almost BEDTIME.

I started my first new knitting project in months. Very excited.

"I am just going to warn you now, I am thinking about standing up. Just so you know."

DADDY HORSE GO!

Mom mom mom mom mom mom are you watching mom?

TA DA!

Maybe I should have named her Clementine

Visiting the knitting shop means knitting for me, dancing with adorable little girls for Little Evan

This is what the clock said when I woke up from MY nap. Yay naps.

We tried out the video chat on Google+ (I love it! We should do it!)

This is literally the first time she has ever been in the crib. Ever. I had to empty all the junk out.

Homemade teething biscuits. They were not crunchy, but good for baby nomming.

I have no idea what's going on here.

Target dressing room self portrait. I bought it.

Aw, look at my adorable pale family.

We went up to Plymouth, Mass to see E's family. Helloooooo lunch.

The Massachusetts relatives live in an old Cape a block from the beach that's FULL of fantastic antiques like this stuff, but still super casual and beachy. I have house envy.

TOTAL MELTDOWN on the way home was temporarily calmed with Mama's iPad.

Delicious, healthy, Weight Watchers approved breakfast to start our Super! Fun! Day! at the Seaport!

And then this happened.

Hanging out in bed at 7 pm. Because I am lame. Literally.

I put the toddler to work cleaning the house while I lay on the couch.

Nursing bebeh, sexy hospital sock

That, my friends, is an empty laundry basket because my husband did all the laundry while I was injured.

Our nephew came to visit & entertain the baby

Then we entertained him with the Kinect (while wearing Evan's baby sunglasses of course)

Caroline watching The Colbert Report.

Maybe if I hide my new shoes behind E's stuff he won't notice!

I bought this dress at Target. It is very very comfortable and possibly makes me look pregnant.

Are we ever going to leave this DAMN HOUSE?

Roasted sweet potatos for the baby. Note: 22 minutes is too long - they turn into mush and she can't grab them.

Bebeh toooooooes

Now I have TWO kids who keep trying to take my iPhone

Finally made it to the Seaport & Little Evan got to ride on a boat

Look what I got it in mail! More Uff Da goodness to add to my collection. I mean CAROLINE'S collection.

I found a local consignment shop. I am in love. These were SIX DOLLARS.

Waiting patiently on the stairs for daddy to get out of the bathroom.

HUGS!

He was SO GOOD during dinner, we actually enjoyed ourselves.

Nooooo! Don't try to take off my Elmo PJ's!

Playing a new game called "Here's a swiffer cloth, go clean the walls"

Mommy's sunglasses are the best.

As much fun as yogurt painting at playgroup was, it might make breakfasts a little messy.

I was doing push-ups over her face and she laughed at me. Way to be supportive BABY.

The big girls babysat for me after Stroller Strides. They are SO good with her.

I got the spot. It makes me UNREASONABLY angry when people use it as a handicapped spot. There are LOTS of handicapped spots so don't take my ONE customers with infants spot.

OMG WHAT?! Sitting up like a big girl!? No way!

I made it to knitting group but managed to NOT buy every single one of these.

Minus the legs, she LOVES the play table.

Swinging siblings

He calls them his "Fast Shoes" - 50% off at Target, FINALLY

Five billion organic, all natural toys and she likes the plastic dollar store ball and Evan's dirty sandal.

At Stroller Strides. I was supposed to be doing crunches, but instead was enjoying the sunshine.

It took a while, but he warmed up to the boat. Not so much the life jacket.

Are you kidding me with this hugging thing?

Banana hair. Someone should market it as the ultimate holding gel.

This was AFTER I cut a bunch to fill all my vases. Love this bush.
