Weekend in Pomfret

The girls and I went to Promfret Vermont last weekend to visit with Tessa and her Mom Susan at Susan's house. It was great. Susan has an amazing house and the garden was very yummy...there were tomatoes galore and Mabel loved the cows and chickens and Hannah is well always happy to be involved with everything. The couple pictures I didn't get were of the tomatoes and the cows. Next time for sure.

My little Hannah sleeping. I have a lot of pictures of Mabel sleeping and so here is one of Hannah. The last 4 mornings I have gone in to get her she is sleeping on her stomach happy as can be. She is an old pro getting the binky in her mouth now....lucky me!

Reading in Bed

Mabel reading to Hannah in her crib. When I go to wake Mabel up from her nap she will ask for Hannah and ask me to put her "right there"

Big girl little seat, little girl no seat :) Getting ready for snack time at the Casey's.

Hannah has a great laugh. Makes my day to hear her joy.

TWO! - This one is for Mabel

Yup Mabel is two. It was so fun....we had a great day. She is a funny two year old, busy as ever, sweet to her sister, talking up a storm, keeping me on my toes and an overall dream come true....I truly don't know what I would do without her - it brings me to tears thinking about what a special little girl she is to me and her family and everyone she knows. I really tried to capture Mabel in pictures yesterday and I think it worked well.....I took just under 50 pictures!

I wanted a classic Mabel picture and here is Mabel being her classic self!

Mabel with her new Baby and stroller

She was being so good as I asked her to stand right there...so cute.

Thank you Grandma Claire, Uncle Ryan and Lacie....it the best....we took it down to school tonight and showed it off.

Her feet use to not even touch the bottom...WOW!

Rub a Dub Dub 2 girls in a Tub

Now that Hannah is sitting up so well, we can really have fun in the bath. I love giving the girls a quick bath in the sink each night.....it's easy on my back and a good way to get ready for bed.
