what we've been up to.

Well, it's been a while. So let me catch you up on what you've missed:

Rowan borrowed Annemarie's coat one afternoon when it got cool, and he "loved" his "new jacket with the blue squiggles" (yes, that would be his description of leopard print)

He loved it so much, he wanted to wear the coat to his school art show, but I refused 

(though he did look Fabulous in it)

Here's Picasso in front of his masterpiece. It's a mountain flower.

Andy scored his first goal at a soccer game (not scrimmage). He was thrilled, and we were thrilled for him. Probably no one more so than Rowan. We celebrated with popsicles.

The boys are obsessed with hockey

 Andy chose me as his "Special Person" for special person day at school

 He sang songs that made me cry and then we ate snacks. It was a perfect day.

Henry is, apparently, speaking too well to receive speech services anymore. He tested out this week. 

 Here he is looking handsome, only hours before coming down with the stomach bug

 Here's the quarantine Rowan set up as he chanted "Don't Touch Hen-ry!"

 Here's Henry wiped out the next day. Little did I know how hard I was about to get hit with the bug myself. . . 

 But I recovered in time to go to Rowan's Mother's Day Tea at preschool. 

And here we are only hours before. . . 

 

. . . you guessed it! Rowan came down with the stomach bug.

Hope you had a great Mother's Day and a great week after. 

We'll be here if you need us. Sitting on the couch eating a BRAT diet til our tummies are back up to speed.

What have you been up to?

around here, lately.

To find out what we've been up to, when I can't remember, all I have to do is check my phone:

What have you been up to?

what we've been up to.

I'm always taking random pictures with my phone. Then later I look back and I'm surprised by all the stuff I've done, but don't even remember. Even though I did them, like, the day before yesterday. Ha!

This weekend we went to our first Lobsterfest event ever. I felt like I was packing for Block Island. Who knew we had to bring so much stuff! I thought we just showed up. Silly me.

It was a beautiful night, and we ended up having a lot of fun. Even if the lobsters were some of the worst I've ever had in my life! Blech! Next time, we know to eat beforehand!

Here's Rowan on Sunday, working on a tissue paper project we bought Andy for his birthday. I was surprised he sat as long as he did and actually finished the star. He must be turning 3 next week!

Pizza and pool party on the deck!

Yesterday Andy went back to the immunologist. He needed more blood work and was not happy about it.

 Here's the car in Mum-Mum and Papa's driveway -- the next generation.

Here's the original.

 After refusing to nap, Henry finally passed out right before dinner. In the highchair.

 Out cold.

 Today I took all three to the grocery store for the first time ever. It went surprisingly well.

 And the bakery.

 And the farm stand.

And now, you are all caught up!
