Cousins

We've been lucky to get to see our family a lot recently!  We went to Fords Fish Shack to celebrate AB's birthday the other day.  Mimi, PopPop Jack, Ryan, AB, and Uncle Rodney were there.  Unfortunately Uncle Chris, Aunt Sabrina, Bryce, and Kiley weren't feeling well and couldn't make it.  Ryan and Maddy both ordered crab legs (smart kids!)






AB's yummy birthday dessert!




Lessons in crab picking.



I'm pretty sure they could pass as twins...definitely as siblings.



Maddy acting silly with Ryan.



Cams coloring.







Camryn got a magnet set for her birthday and one morning was concentrating on getting all the colored magnets lined up.  She loved it!



Later that weekend Matt took the girls up to Middletown to spend some time with Aunt Sabrina and the kids while he helped Uncle Chris tile their kitchen floor.  I stayed home to get some chores done.  Aunt Sabrina was just a little out numbered that day but reassured me the kids behaved..hopefully that's true :)  They always love spending time with their cousins, it makes me so happy!!















Look at how much she loves Kiley!!





The girls have a new favorite breakfast which doesn't come in a box so I'm very happy about that!  I made them french toast sticks and then find whatever little containers I can to give them syrup for dipping and they love them! (Matt did question me about why shot glasses were in the sink first thing in the morning haha).



The other day I caught Cams pretending to be on the phone with someone. When I asked her who it was she said "Mr. Tony" and further clarified by saying "Kendall's daddy".  She loves our friend Tony and they definitely share a special bond, it was adorable to find her "talking" to him!



The other day Matt went out to my car at work and one of the tires was flat so he changed the tired and he got home the girls helped him fix it.  (We put air in my tire and it's been fine since so not sure what the problem was).  It's always cute seeing the girls help their daddy with things.



Their favorite thing to do recently is play on the tire swing their daddy made for them.  I apparently don't swing them as high as daddy does.



Mom, Anna, and I took the girls to get ice cream the other night when Matt had plans with some friends.  They love Nielsen's Frozen Custard, but I don't blame them.  Maddy always wants to know if it's coffee day (they have new flavors each day).  She Loves coffee ice cream.



That same night we had popcorn and cartoons in bed since daddy was out :)

Fresh Air

We've had a few nice days where we've spent our afternoons outside and then get this...it's supposed to snow tomorrow, March 20th, and it's supposed to snow!

The other day Makenna asked Maddy to go paint pottery with her so they went together.  Maddy takes her pottery painting seriously, look at that concentration :)



Camryn took her baby for a walk.



We had Gammy, Aunt Anna, Jeff, and Uncle Zach over to celebrate Gammy's birthday.





We've been breaking out the sidewalk chalk





And the girls are LOVING apples for a snack!  Like every single afternoon :)





Camryn spends most mornings rolling around on the floor crying for no apparent reason...maybe it's a 3 year old thing?



One of Camryn's classmates had a birthday party last weekend that I took her too.  It was the first birthday party she was invited to without Maddy. She had a blast.  While Maddy will tend to keep Matt or I in her line of sight, Cams ran wild and had a blast!  She probably wouldn't have minded if I just left (but I didn't, haha)







After the birthday party we met up with our friends to go see the new Cinderella movie.  Camryn was happy to see Kendall.





and not so happy to see Whitney hahaha.







Camryn likes to dress up the dogs, she put this on Cash and said he was beautiful and ready to go to the Ball.







Maddy got to go to a spa birthday party the other day!  Complete with make-up, mani's, and pedi's.



We went to Fosters with friends the other night for dinner.  The kids spent most of the night in the little arcade.  I'm pretty sure all they did was get gumballs.



Camryn's mouth here is literally full of gum.





The girls both wore green to school for St. Patty's day.  Maddy's class set up a leprechaun trap and she was really excited about the day.









Maddy decided she didn't want training wheels anymore...and then quickly decided she did want them again.



Maddys class made rainbow necklaces the other day.
