Lap top coma

My computer stopped working for almost two weeks, luckily I ordered a new battery (thanks to the recommendation of my sister) and all is restored, for now!

But I am so far behind in my pictures...Lucy turned 5 months and then 6 months and then Jack turned 4 and then there was Halloween.

My Lucy baby is one sweet girl.  She is so calm and a very happy baby, although I believe she is teething this week so she is not as happy.

If you think I spend my days kissing her face, then you would be right (as much as she lets me).

Lucy sucks her thumb and it is pretty adorable.  I also read that it is perfectly normal for babies to suck their thumbs at this age and that it causes no harm to their gums or teeth at this age.

Labor Day

While Jim was in New Hampshire hiking Mt. Washington with his brother and my Dad, I decided to make a last minute getaway to Massachusetts to visit with some cousins.

It was a great time. I love to go up there and visit with family.  The beach is a pretty nice perk too.

Cousins: Lilly (7), Abbey (6.99), Sage (4), Jack (3), Sydney (3), Sam (4) 

These two girls are as giggly and fun when they get together as the picture appears.

Jim and John made it back from Jim's birthday hiking adventure for a day at the beach.

Brothers: John, Jim, Ed

My children love the beach and the ocean like I do, which brings me great joy.
