Celebrating 3 months old at Papa and Shisha's!

Ethan can make Garrett laugh the hardest! Garrett's laughs (at 7 days old) use to sound like he was gasping for air, now they sound like a cat who has a furball!

First time in swim trunks. Compliments of Shisha! Muffin top can only look cute on a baby!

Hard day being held by Shisha!

Ethan is holding the infamous crocodile that he thought Shisha needed for her Birthday. It survived the winter outside and still has some life left in him!

Papa David would never refuse cuddle time even when it is 90+ degrees out with beads of sweat rolling off his bald head.

Exhausted together!

Magazine Swimsuit Model. Mr. March!

Pouting because he has to pick up and leave Papa's!

Forget the dishes...wash the baby in the kitchen sink!

This is Ethan not even 2 minutes into our trip home from Papa and Shisha's! He just loves it there!

Race cars!

Let the playing begin! If you click this picture larger, you will see how Garrett was laughing at Ethan! So darn cute!

Higgins 2011

Thank you Gallaghers for a very nice memorial day weekend at your cottages at Higgins Lake!

Little Red Riding Hood x 2 = adorable!

Nibbles icecream to most, but turn the bb's upside down to cater to the youngest of milk lovers!

On the beach at Higgins receiving directions! This is the same exact look that I get from Grant when asking him something!

Coming back from fishing in the kayak...with nothing...and still smiling!

First time with feet touching sand!

My new career! Modeling! Actually this was all a joke as the day before the ladies went garage saleing and all I found was a 50 cent necklace and I made a comment that if anything I could wear it with my swimsuit on the beach and get the use out of it. Grant called me "Mrs. Rich" from Big and Rich all day!
Hat = 25 cents from a different garage sale (gymboree size 5-7. yes my brain is small)
Necklace = 50 cents
Swimsuit cover = 12.00
Laughs = Priceless

Garrett all smiles when Momma wanted to cry when he got a little sunburnt. I thought I had him well covered. Not so much Mother of the year that day.

I just love hats! Garrett has multiple ones, but this one is my favorite as it brings out his blue eyes!

Belated Birthday present from Sherri!

Sherri had taken me to my first NKOTB (New Kids on the Block) concert and at the age of 34 she had taken me again. 20 years in between with a very different perspective! I just about peed my pants several times that evening while laughing so hard! Prior to the event, I knew that I have some paraphernalia around the house somewhere and when I found it the book stated "Childhood collectibles. Might be worth something." I love when you can laugh at yourself! As the concert began with all of the lights, Sherri very seriously turned to her friend and I and stated "I hope my vertigo doesn't act up!" (Do you think this ever crossed her mind the first time around?) As we moved a little closer, the fireworks on stage started and scared us to the point of Sherri grabbing her crotch as if to say "It made me tinkle a little!" (Do you think this ever crossed her mind the first time arond?) And lastly, Sherri's friend had the opportunity to touch one of the singers and her face was priceless when she turned around. Here was this 40 some year old women who instantly turned teenager again. Who needs botox when you have starry eyes!

Thanks Sherri for being there for me all these years! I love you!

Pacifier

Whatever works!!!!

Son like Father, only a few years apart!

May 2011- Ethan attempting to blow up his pool.

July 2008 - Grant trying to blow up our queen size air mattress while camping as he was refusing to utilize electricity as "WE ARE GOING TO CAMP RUSTIC THIS TIME!"

Time with Papa!

Papa knows how to win the hearts of all of his grandchildren! Here he is spending time with the Melville boys! One a little bit more active then the other!

Many attempts to fly a kite (in the middle of the road)! The funny part was that there wasn't a slightest breeze in the air...it was a very still day.

Hat

Pulled out the summer hats! Hooray!
