(Request for help at the bottom of the post.)
I have known these sweet girlies since before they were born. And now they are THREE. I can’t even believe it. They are such big girls now….telling me all about school, and princesses, but still giving me lots of hugs and snuggles….hooray! Hope that lasts forever. Anyway, here is my new absolute favorite shot of them together…..

Squeak. A little sisterly love.
They are also a great example of how it goes with kiddos. In June at when we did their birthday photos, one of them was all about mugging for the camera while the other couldn’t be bothered to give me the time of day. Well this time it was opposite day. Flip flop. Switcheroo. Criss cross. Now that doesn’t mean no smiles…just means we had to work a little harder for one than the other. (Also might mean there are more images of one in the gallery than the other…but sometimes, when there are all those grins staring out at me, it is just too hard to narrow it down any further.)


Just want to hug them both. Can’t tell you how much I miss seeing these smiling faces on a regular basis.

A little mama love. Lucky…she gets to hug them every day…and listen to their funny jokes too!

Expertly styled. Love the white, grey, & black. Especially love the girls’ boots! So did they. It’s lots of fun if you do a funny walk and the pom poms swing all around!
Know what else is fun? Playing hide and seek. See if you can find this expert hider….good luck. She is stealthy like a ninja.

Keep looking. I swear she is in that photo somewhere. (hee hee, love 3 year olds) Thanks for such a fun afternoon people…it was so wonderful to see you all!
On a totally different subject
Help, please.
I am lucky enough to be going to NYC for the first time ever in a couple of weeks and am looking for suggestions of “must do” activities….things to see, places to eat, etc…. Would love any ideas. Feel free to post them in the comments or just email them directly to me.



Love them! Also, here’s my suggestion about NYC: TAKE ME!!
Just kidding. Sort of.
I forgot to add Grand Central Station – it is so gorgeous!! I would have stopped to check it out, even if I hadn’t taken the train into NYC. Unbelievable that they once wanted to tear it down. We didn’t bother with Penn Station since I’ve heard that it as nowhere as pretty as the original. Someday I’ll make it there too, I’m sure. It just wasn’t as high as the 200 other things on my ‘want to see’ list.
