June - Cousin O & Cousin R

Since Olivia's parents are giving her a baby sister as her 2nd birthday present they decided to hold her birthday party a few weeks early.
The ball pit was a BIG hit that afternoon.

"Hey! Wanna see my belly button!?"
"EWWW! I will NOT look I will NOT look I will NOT look!!"

"FINE! You don't want to check out my innie then I'm going to kick your butt!"

Such a shame they just never have ANY fun together......

The girls playing sooo sweetly...

"Heh heh heh... watch THIS!!"

Can you spot the difference between these 2 pictures?

Yes, this little darling was absolutely as angelic as she looks. What a little sweetie!!

Happy 2nd Birthday, Olivia!!
Laurie had the poor child practically bent in half but she wanted NO part of blowing out the candles.

Props to Laurie on her adorable Elmo cupcakes!
(if only my confectionaries looked as delectable...)

Olivia may have been the belle of the ball but Rich was the star of the show. From the moment Adrienne walked in she was glued to his side.

And he was SUCH a good sport about it!!

Opening her Bitty Baby Birthday accessories... Adrienne looking on proud as can be and Nick was wondering what all the fuss was about.

With the birthday girl heading in for a nap, I packed the kids in the car and they did the same. When they woke up we were back on home turf and we met up with my co-workers for dinner.
Nick: "MOOO-OOOM! I CANNOT look at the camera right now!! I just realized there's a hot blonde sitting over there!!! I'm gonna check her out instead!!"

The next day, my parents took Adrienne to Ryan's first piano recital!
They were thrilled to see each other.
(haha... ok, apparently this picture was taken afterwards when everyone was a little tuckered out....)

Congratulations Ryan!
Billy Joel better watch out! There's a new Piano Man in town!!

As for Adrienne's outfit.... Today was the Puerto Rican Day Parade in NYC.
Need I say more?

So while my parents were out on the town with Adrienne I started to pack for our FIRST family vacation. Nick spotted the goggles in the suitcase, put them on and demanded, "Mommy! Laugh!" It's not a hard request to honor.... how can you NOT!??!
