This week is basically just photos of all the places I’m going to take photos. Plus Caroline.
Sunday:
Super happy to be swinging.
I GUESS this spot was OK for family photos. (This spot was amazing.)
Monday:
Eyeing the last apple fritter at Chowder Days.
Nicely done, Connecticut
Free boat rides are the best boat rides
Tuesday:
This is not my baby, but I kind of want to hang it up in my house anyways.
75% off wings at the craft store!
Pixie Girl
Wednesday:
Practicing his long jump skills
A pond…
…a cove…
…a park. I LOVE CONNECTICUT.
Wrinkly toes
Thursday:
Ready for school! It’s been 65 here all week, so she refuses to wear a coat.
I found the steps where we did my maternity photos! I love this park.
What does the fox say? BUY ME, I’M ADORABLE.
Someone had a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast.
That chalkboard was the train station schedule for Evan’s birthday. Repurposing!!
Editing editing editing…I really loved this session!
Saturday:
I did NOT buy this, even though I really really really really love it. I did end up buying a dresser. And a table. And a couch. And…another couch. It was an expensive weekend.
I love you, soda machine.
Project RECLAIM THIS DISASTER is underway. I’m so excited about it, especially now that it’s getting darker and colder and we’re going to be stuck inside more.
I had no photo sessions this weekend but I’m making up for it with 4 in the next 6 days and I’m crossing my fingers SO HARD that the weather stays nice. I’m hoping to get some of our personal photos sorted and (minorly) edited and shared too, since my family starts to get mad if there aren’t enough gingers on the blog. MOAR GINGERS SOON, I promise.

Two of the days this week were SO LAZY I barely took 3 pictures all day. Coming back to real life is hard.
Sunday:
It rained on our last day at the lake house, but luckily Mormor and Bumpa have cable.
Evan and his man bag are ready to go.
Quick! Put the GIANT serving of Pad Thai on a huge plate so it looks more reasonably sized.
Monday:
This is my sister’s from France and it is AMAZING
Singing a song that goes “I am so cute! I am so cute!”. She made it up.
Emergency 9 pm Target run for baseball supplies.
Tuesday:
The red seat is the spot where the longest ever home run landed.
Empty park.
He is accurately expressing how hot it was.
Hell yeah panorama feature
Wednesday:
TV watching cuddles
Spitting face, even though spitting is a time-outable offense.
8 pm McD’s trip for happy meals is part of my campaign for Mother of the Year.
Thursday:
Quick! Run in different directions! It’ll confuse her!
Best sibling photo ever? Possibly.
Taking a magical carriage ride for the very first time.
Friday:
I think the cat missed us while we were gone.
Wrinkly piggies!
I’m going to shave off her hair and turn it into a wig for me. So jealous.
Saturday:
Lord Caroline sneers at her subjects.
Super Caroline is annoyed you disturbed her secret lair.
Who knew a weekend at a kid’s birthday party could be a vacation?
I know I said LAST week that we were just going to relax at home and take it easy for a while…but then I realized Summer is REALLY SHORT and we are already running out of time to do all the things. We’ll be all over New England for the next week and the kids start summer school/camp the week after, so the frantic pace continues. It’s literally giving me stomach pains thinking about how little time we have left before it gets dark and cold again, so I’m fitting as much fun into these warm days as possible.

SPRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!
Sunday:
E models the latest in fashion: a ginger-shaped hat
BOOM! MOE’S!
Bubble rocket launcher in action
Monday:
He gets an A+ in relaxing
Special Monday treats: shopping alone, Sbux, and driving the new car
I don’t feel the need to explain my art to you
Tuesday:
I make the EXACT same face when anyone tries to wake me up in the morning
Yarn store visiting
Monkey see, monkey do
Wednesday:
Inside fishes first!
Bacon, tomato, caramelized onions, blue cheese, mozzarella on sourdough
Peek a boo at the Seaport
Thursday:
Hat
These cookies are full of LIES (and regular sandwich cookie cream, not taffy)
This one’s for sale and only 2 blocks away. Be my neighbor!!
Friday:
The queen on her throne
Feeding ducks
I have no idea what this is
Saturday:
Trendsetter
Bluff Point
Rainbow sprinkles = MIND BLOWN
Our spring-like weather looks like it’s here to stay but since this is New England I’m not taking anything for granted. We’ll be repeating this week with extra locations (zoo, beach, etc etc etc) thrown in for the next two months. More baths + later bedtimes are going to cut into my blog-writing time, but I’m OK with that. Sometimes it doesn’t hurt to remember we can live our lives even if I don’t write about every second of it online.

What crazy week. Thank God the gingers had no idea how crappy it was in the real world and just enjoyed their spring break.
Sunday:
Look! A totally uninteresting part of a 60 year old submarine! You STILL can’t see the interesting parts (where E works on the modern ones).
Running away from their BBQ pork. Obviously they were switched at birth. Both of them.
Reading with Aunt Erin
Monday:
7:30 am in New London, CT
The first time I tore myself away from the news that day the moon was already out
I let the kids stay up for extra cuddles and totally mindless children’s shows
Tuesday:
I spy ye, matey!
Even pirates need a cup of milk sometimes
Passed out with her (old) Easter hat
Wednesday:
Good morning, this is my tongue.
The gingers are doing their best impression of a cheesy movie slow motion run
Reading hat
Meal plan + shopping list = What’s For Dinner? will be back soon
Thursday:
Stroller Strides at the beach EFF YEAH
The view made working out less sucky
Children’s Museum Hat
A B C’S ARE BETTER WHEN THEY ARE AS LOUD AS THIS SIGN
Friday:
Caught red handed!
There are approximately 300 of these on my phone from this day, since the kids got the iDevices while I watched the news…
…and read ALL the Twitters.
Saturday:
And sometimes my view during Stroller Strides is LESS inspiring
Introducing the gingers to Moe’s
Swinging is fun
And now school vacation week is OVER and I get some Suzanne-time back. I love love love my children more than life itself, but there’s a point during the day where I want to lock them both in a closet. THE WHINING OH THE WHINING. It’s amazing what a difference 5 hours a week makes to my sanity and patience. Oh and P.S. World? Try not to go totally INSANE again next week, ok?
