Shaz by the Sea

This is probably the longest I've gone in a while between posts - but I will honestly say I am the busiest I have ever been. But we had a wicked fun weekend, so it was blog-post-worthy. We ventured out to a few events, hosted lots of people, and had a blast doing it all. Oh and the weather was WAY better than expected, so that is always a plus. I mean, look at these three guys! Work has been really busy - I just returned from a week long conference in Cape Cod and it was awesome. It was SO nice to be "away" yet I didn't feel far from home since I was staying at our Cape house. The boys are all super crazy and fun. I am so proud to say that Conor and Caden have officially graduated out of early intervention. It was a real long involved process. We worked with Woburn Public Schools from the beginning to see if the boys qualified for services at a special state funded preschool due to their previous speech delay. :) I am SO happy/thrilled/ecstatic to report t...

What I'm craving lately: Corn on the cob, watermelon, fruit salad, and ice cream! SWEETS!!  I baked three pies this weekend. I got really into it. My neighbor gave us a ton of rhubarb from their garden - and I also wanted to make my cousin Doug a pumpkin pie (in May!) for his housewarming/BBQ party. It was actually quite delicious - especially since yesterday was so cool. It felt like a fall day! This is how we finished off our HOT Saturday.. Sunday morning, we kicked off the day with swim lessons. About 60% of the class was missing - they must've gone away for the holiday - so the class size was awesome. We could really move around the pool easily. I loved it. I wish the class was that small every week! After our swim lessons, we packed up some food and drinks, and headed into the city. I've been wanting to take the kids to the Boston Common and the Public Garden - mainly for my sake. They are too young for the park area and can...

Happy Memorial Day Weekend (officially)! I wore this outfit to work yesterday - I am 8 months pregnant today! HA. I didn't look like this with the twins. I feel like I can finally see a significant difference between a twin pregnancy and a singleton. I am feeling really good, especially in the mornings. But anytime after 2-3PM, forget it. I am very uncomfortable and tired. Maybe my next post will be a pregnancy update questionnaire. I am out here on my deck with my cherubs and Jimbo. We came outside at about 7:30AM. It was 70+ degrees so how do you not go outside that early??  I love that we are home - I was able to vacuum my den and living room this morning, and also clean my kitchen floor - which was WAY overdue. Now we're having some coffee outside and watching these two have a blast with their water table birthday present. I feel like I JUST wrote about how childhood needs to be simpler and slower - and that kids would rather play in a cardboard box at ...
