Memorial Day Week-end

Happy Memorial Day! We are so thankful to all of those, past and present, who have served our country.

Poor Devin's ears are really giving him a rough go at it lately. He has had fluid in his ears pretty much since November and most recently earaches and hearing loss. (We are awaiting an appointment at Mass Eye and Ear in June.) After a rough Friday night with Devin crying...alot...because of his earache, I headed to the pediatrician with him on Saturday morning. The doc gave him another prescription and with some added Motrin and ear drops he was able to enjoy his week-end. (This kid has a medicine box bigger than mine and Erick's combined!)

Saturday afternoon we went to my cousin's son's 11th birthday. It was at a Rec Center so the kids played basketball and went on the playground outside. Simple, but the kids LOVED it!

Here's Devin and Nadya shooting hoops.
Skya on the slide...she loved this!

Me and Skya watching the kids play ball.
On Sunday we went to a BBQ at our good friend's Kim and Chris. We had such a nice time with good people and good food. The kids ran around in the backyard- playing and swimming. Such a relaxing, enjoyable afternoon.

We were all surprised when little Lexie wanted Erick to hold her and put her to sleep. It did melt our hearts too!
I love this picture of Devin on the steps to the pool.

On Monday we stayed home to do laundry, relax, and let Devin take his first dip of the year in the pool at our house. Most of that worked out- the fire alarms started blaring mid-morning. I was ready to haul out of here with the kid in one hand and the cat in the other!! We finally figured out that the washing machine engine was dying- causing smoke and that dreadful dead engine smell. I've order our new one, but it won't be here until next Wednesday. There will be a lot of laundry to do by then!!

Here is Devin swimming a lap across the pool with Erick. (Note he is in the 8ft section here.)

We ended the long week-end relaxing with a movie. Ahhhh, only 15 work days left until summer vacation!

Loving my new Nikon Cool Pix

Erick bought me a teeny tiny point and shoot camera. It literally fits in my pocket. And its purple. Its awesome.

I am by no means a photographer, like some of my friends- both in real life and in blog/face book world. I just need a camera that takes a decent picture to capture my life's memories. Suffice it to say that I am very satisfied that this camera is a fraction of the size of my last one and double the mega pixels.

Here are a few of the first "test pictures." Notice there are none of Devin. He is with his grandparents.


Here is Lolly, she is getting so big!Our friends' son, Pierce...almost toothless!

Kim's daughter Lexie. Such a cutie!
Kim's 31st birthday!!Happy Birthday Kim!

Last Thursday Devin and I met our friends Kim, Emma, and Lexie at Brookdale Farm. Kim took some great pictures of the kids (as usual). Here are a few.

Friends

Devin and Emma have been friends since they were about 20 months (if I am remembering correctly!) Devin is always excited to see Emma, and I love visiting with her Mom, Kim. When the kids get together they love to play, goof around, wrestle~ you name it. There is always one thing you can count on- chaos! It's awesome to see them have such a nice little friendship.

Here they are around their 2nd birthday:
About 2.5 years old and getting affectionate (lol):
Learning how to kiss (oh boy!):
About 3 years old:
Almost 4 years old:
I hope that Devin and Emma can continue their friendship for a very long time. They are so adorable together!! I'd also love them to stay close because I have come to have a great friendship with Emma's Mommy!


PS Kim, this is an old picture. I think you and I need an updated pic soon!
