Cape Cod Play Date

This morning we made our way south with famed Nico and Isabella to Barnstable on Cape Cod for a play date with some of our other twin friends. The kids were so cute. Here they are...minus Cole who was melting down at this point...sitting side by side on the couch. Tommy and Cole are always the big guys in the bunch. :) Remember those Michelin man legs they used to have??

Lunch!!

Exhausted...the fantastic four made their way home. Luckily, Karen had extra car seats so we could all make the journey together. Thanks Heidi for a GREAT day!

Identical looks...eating habits? Ummmm....

It's funny how things changed. When these two were infants, Tommy was my messy baby. Always spitting up...formula dribbling down his chin... Now? Polar opposite! He is super neat and doesn't like his foods even touching on his plate. Everything in its place. He eats slowly too....savoring every bite.

Cole? You better duck when dinner is over! Clearly this is the part of their DNA that is different. This video demonstrates his style best. :)

Picnic in the park....

Yesterday Joe came over with the most amazing picnic lunch for everyone! It was such a fun surprise. We laid great grandma's blanket down in a shady spot by the boys swing set and enjoyed an incredible feast with Auntie Beth, Dad, Mom, Uncle Joe and the boys. We dined on lobster salad, Italian sandwiches, fresh fruit, chicken for the kids, pirate booty (very fitting) and even half moon cookies. The boys had a blast!


After lunch, we played on the swing set. Here are some pictures from our picnic in the park. :)

"Two" Cool

The boys have a new fascination with sunglasses. Not their own of course...just Kevin's or mine. I came into the kitchen this morning and there they were...sporting their shades.

They walk around with them on for half the morning. Then take them off when its time to go outside. Hmmm...got to work on that.

Twinpalooza 2009 - The Invasion of Story Land!!!

This weekend was our big reunion in Story Land! 6 families converged to have fun and chill out with the kids. It was so much fun watching them all interact. Last year they were crawling and just starting to walk...this year they were RUNNING and just so funny with each other. The kids did really well and seemed to enjoy the park.

We have some funny stories...and everyone got great photos. I'll post a few more over the next few days. Still sifting through them all!

One group shot (missing Emily's family...)

The t-shirts were so cute!

Tommy LOVING the ball pit!

Some of the gang...

Video from the condo....

It was a great trip!!! I had to include this video below as it was too funny not to include. The drive ended up taking us close to 5 hours with the rain and traffic. (usually a three hour drive) Anyway, after being pent up in the car...the boys were crazy men when we got to the condo.
