Mother's Day Weekend

We headed to Myrtle Beach on Saturday for a little family getaway. The girls loved staying in a hotel and really enjoyed the rides at Broadway at the Beach. Unfortunately it rained on Sunday and we couldn't go to Family Kingdom for more rides, but the weekend was full of fun and I was a very happy  mother! I'm so lucky to be the mom of these two precious girls...

Jumping on the bed...

Finally on the Beach!

Having fun at the pool...

They loved the jacuzzi tub!

My Girls

Broadway at the Beach

They loved the rides!

My Sweet Grace

 We ate at Carlos and Charlie's which happens to be the best restaurant to bring kids that are overtired. The staff sang, danced made balloon hats and brought Grace about 20 bottles of ketchup when I requested some for her corn dog. The girls loved all the action!

First time sleeping in a bed together (and they made it through the whole night)!

Good-Bye April...

Some Sweet Sister Shots!

We spent the last weekend in April celebrating Mimi's birthday in Columbia.
Here are some pictures from our visit.

Mimi and Grace

Lily had a blast snapping beans!

Time for cake and presents.

Mimi treated the girls to a trip to Build a Bear. When asked the occasion, they replied "It's Mimi's birthday." What a great Mimi and some lucky little girls!

Grace loves her new bear Katie.

We had fun on the indoor carousel. 

Cousins!

I'm really looking forward to the end of May...

Easter and Spring Break

This was the first year the Easter Bunny visited our house, the girls were very excited to see what he brought on Easter morning. Our bunny brought some movies, books, bunnies, paint for the tub and a few other goodies...

After all the excitement, we headed to the airport for our trip to NY. For some reason there is always an issue when I fly alone with the girls. This time it was a hungover dude that decided to get sick right before the plane took off. We ended up having to get off the plane so they could clean it and then back on about 45 minutes later for take off. Luckily both girls were well behaved and entertained with snacks, books and talking to other people around us.

I just couldn't wait to get to NY and meet this little man! 

James is just so sweet!

The Whole Gang!

Can you tell that Grace loves being around her family?

Also couldn't wait to meet this beauty.

Gabrielle is already a fashionista!

On our trip we had fun playing outside...

Going to White Post Farm...

Going to the aquarium...

The Museum...

The Bronx Zoo...

And just spending time with family...

We ended our trip with the celebration of Gabrielle's Christening. It was great to be able to be a part of this special day since we usually miss out on these occasions.

Can't wait to visit again this summer...
