from a weekend with mim & papi

grandparent central around here lately. no appearances in these photos, but mim & papi went with us to the farmer's market and caught an absolutely perfect weekend of weather. 

before their arrival was some morning lounging with shawn the sheep.


and the aforementioned trip to the park, wherein bear  farted. 



Thing 1 and mommy

clem's earned a bit of special time with heidi of late, and some of it was spent in one of the outfits we'd brought out for violet. it still "fits."





GAM-MA!

we were very excited to host gramma for a visit. it involved some girls not feeling so well, but there were a whole lot of bright moments, too.

the carousel

clem loves the carousel so much we had to become supporting members of prospect park so as not to send ourselves to the poor house. she knows the black horse is named "morgan", the lion is "brownie", etc. we now go several times a week, and now that it's unlimited rides, we can go as much as we want. if you watch the bottom video, you can go, too. 



if it seems like we're going back in time, we are

still figuring out how amazingly smooth the integration is with google's cloud. i don't even have to actively take things off my phone. they're in the cloud already, and blogger finds them. not bad. in any case, these are from the start of june. a couple good days with bear on the slides, in the sand, and with ru and layla after heidi's state exam.







and vi conducting a sleep symphony.

a couple minutes with bear


she got the dragon...




not the one wherein they wipe out

i like watching them negotiate each other's attention span while linked in motion.


grilling with dominic


photo blast from the phone

checking out the google+ phone camera collection for recent events


like ice cream bars at the carousel

and milking cows at the zoo

and grilling squid with uncle dom

and playing in the sand with henry


running down hills

giving the dragon a drink

and checking out the neighborhood tushies.

june, roadtrips, and the like

time for a couple massive catch up posts. haven't had the camera or two working computers in a long while...


shared some pretzels with the H-man on the shores of algae lake.


and Dan and Henry got a preview of what life will look like in their house in a few weeks.



the girls rode out the home renovation on a new england bender, visiting eamon & eliza in maine...










...and kendra and her tribe as well...






before popping back into swansea to see meme, lolly and mim & papi.




and finally reaching home after 2 long weeks w/o dad.
