Road Trip

Here we are leaving for the road trip to Michigan.  We left at 7pm and drove through the night, arriving in Detroit at my brothers around 7am.

Emma admiring Evan practicing his bass. 

 The whole family heading to the park by my brothers house.

 Sick of being tied in. 

 Sisters.

 Swings are the best!

 Emma and her cousin Avery hanging out.  Emma told me today she misses talking to him.  Ahh.

 Easter egg hunt.

Found it!

 Emma and Carter on a hike to the lake.

 Needless to say, Emma and Buster have the same love of water.  Couldn't keep her out of the 50 degree water on a 55 degree day!  Check out those hops.

 Carter trying to cheer up Quinn.

 Quinn back at the car after checking out Niagara Falls.  It was a bit chilly and windy.

 One of our pit stops, let Quinn out to play while Buster is using the potty.

 This is what your hair looks like after 14 hours in a car seat!

 Debute night of my brothers movie Louder than Love.  Both shows were sold out.

 Karl, Terri, Evan and Avery. Good looking bunch heading to the premier.

 Rockin' the 60s glitter.

 I never get to play....

 Cousins having fun.

 Loves the sand as much as the water.

Buster the co-pilot.  He really just wanted his dinner then he went back to sleep. He couldnt have been a much better traveler.

Niagara falls!!

Uncle Dean Visits

Uncle Dean is here for a quick visit after being in Boston for business.  We fit in a bike trip to the park and an ocean visit.  Emma didn't care that it was 50 and windy out, she still wanted to take a dip!
and Happy Birthday Grandma Sandy!! We love you.

Quinn Is One!

Here is Quinn eating her birthday dessert.  Whipped cream on top of a fruit tart.  She ate all of the fruit and left most of the custard and crust.  Happy Birthday Quinnie!!!

Emma is really into singing and dancing the Hokey Pokey these days.  This was right before bedtime last night. that's what it's all about.....

Quinn the Beggar

 Emma puts her chair on the couch when she has food because Quinn tries to steal any food within reach.  Here she is begging, even Buster knows better! 

 Nothing better than Elmo PJs, a tutu, and some fruit snacks.

Multitasking

 Emma figuring out how to get things done on the computer while also using the potty.

 Press ANY key........ Hmm I don't see it.

 Quinn wanting to see what this computer is all about.

She is now the one who attacks the camera when it comes out and Emma now says "cheese" or "Can I take a cheese of you?"

Super Emma

 We had a little issue with a slippery mud puddle and Emma falling down in them at the park this week. 

 The next day was nice out and no mud so we took a cruise on the bike to the park.

 This is from this morning.  She found a bug on a stick and was saying, "oh it's so cute"

Here she is jumping off of her favorite stump at our park.  She was yelling "super Emma" before I started taping and then stopped. Sorry it was taken with my phone too so the quality is not great. 

Emma's quote of the week is after farting saying "oh sorry mama, that was Emma's butt"

Emma's Pics

 Quinn in her new REI fleece.

 Emma trying to pull off a Jane Fonda look. 

 A kitty cat has been staking our yard for naps and teasing Buster and Emma.

Emma took this picture of Quinn and Mama.  All of the rest of the pictures were of her thumb!
