4th of July in Albany!

We spent last week in Albany celebrating 4th of July and visiting with family and friends. We had a great week, which included a 4th of July parade, a Valleycats baseball game, and lots of time catching up with loved ones.

 

Toddler/Preschool logic

I mentioned something to Anna about her forehead. She said, "where's my forehead?" I pointed to her forehead. She pointed to Abby's forehead and said, "This must be her twohead."

How Bear bear got his second name 

by Abby

Mommy's name is Sarah. Daddy's name is Matt. Anna's name is Sister. Abby's name is Sister. Bear bear's name is Ned

And, yes, now we call Bear bear Ned.

visit to Binghamton :)

And then...after Sesame Place we headed to Binghamton to visit Grandma Jane and Aunt Diane and Grandma & Grandpa met us there. We all had a great time celebrating Grandma Jane's birthday, catching up, playing some fun games, and having dinner at the Blue Dolphin. The girls had a great time exploring Grandma Jane's and Aunt Diane's houses too - well, actually we all did! You never know what you will find in a house that your Dad moved to at age 1 or your grandpa was born in!

 Aunt Diane sure has a lot of books!

 A special visit from Aunti Lo

 Happy Birthday, Grandma Jane!

Sesame Place!

Two days after Wesley and Cody left we headed off to meet Aunt Becky, Uncle Jeff, Liam, & Kieran at Sesame Place! Everyone had a great time meeting the characters, watching the parade, and going on rides and water slides, and of course catching up with our family :)
