Their birthdays are only days apart. Dominic lives in Austia so we only seem them once a year.

Memere took Keira to a Cinderella play yesterday. According to Memere she LOVED it. Memere made this dress for Keira. Its similar to the ball dress the mice and birds sew for Cinderella in the Cinderella story.

Israel dressed for school

Keira dressed him in the purple jacket and green purse so he could go to school too.

school

Keira told me she was going to school in with all this stuff... backpack on the back, soccer ball, and Victoria's Secret bag. Classic

Israel has a tooth!!

One teeny tiny barely over the gum line razor sharp little pearly white. Ask me how I know. I not only saw it with my own two eyes I felt it- and no I don't mean I felt it with my finger! OUCH!!!
9 months and 1 week old and the teeth finally start appearing! Whats next? Walking or talking? I love watching my babies grow up!

Webster Lake ( MA/CT border)

Mike had a work party/BBQ at Webster Lake. Keira had a blast and literally played in the water for 3 hours straight. She must have jumped in the lake and climbed back on the dock at least 50 times. Mike's co -worker had a boat so the kids went on their first ever boat ride where they both fell asleep 2 min before we pulled back into the dock. Beautiful weather and a nice lake breeze made for a great day. In fact if Israel hadn't felt the need to scream for 20 min in the car it would have been pretty close to perfect. Thankfully it was only 20 min and not the entire 1.5 hours back.

Keira the Dentist

In hopes that Keira will allow us to take her for a dental cleaning we had her go with Mike last week to watch him get his teeth cleaned. The dental Hygienist was awesome and explained everything to Keira and gave her a bag of goodies to bring home ( including the mask, gloves, tooth brush etc). Keira has been playing dentist ever since. Here her doll "Alice" is at the dentist getting her teeth cleaned according to Keira. I'm still trying to figure out why she is brushing her dolls hair...........when she is supposedly cleaning her teeth???

Keira as bride

Keira loves to play dress up. Dressing up as a bride is one of her favorite things as well, maybe because Cinderella is her favorite story and she(Cinderella) of course marries the prince....Anyways we found her this veil and diamond ring on clearance at Barnes and Nobles so here you have it. Keira as the bride!!
