Blues

I am so inspired by the flowers that bloom here in the Spring and Summer! It has truly been like a magic show, watching them all come to life. The houses and gardens look so cute with all of their own little personal touches.

The hydrangea are some of my favorites. The baby blue colored ones were my flower for William's baby shower, so I love them for that reason but in a whole bush of blues, pinks and purple, well... it is really somethin'. They are so vibrant, it looks like they are glowing!

And of course these baby blues are always my fave.

North Point Park

Today, we took a visit to North Point Park. It is a really cool park in Cambridge, just down the street from the Science Museum. There is a beautiful view of the Zakim bridge and is located right beside the Charles River. There are several different sections of the park, all with its own "attraction". We mostly play on the jungle gyms and every once in a while, William will do a run through the spray park, an area with sprinklers and some other twisty- turny things. We had a really nice time playing in the fountain, as well. I love the water activities, as they really help cool things off. Plus, William loves anything with water! 

After we played for a while, we sat at a picnic bench, under a trellis and had some snacks. William really got a kick out of the birdie that came and scooped up his left-over granola bar and hopped away with it! :)

It was a really nice day and the people were all friendly! I am excited to come back again and play! 

Babes

I love being their mom!

I feel so lucky that I have such good boys as my children! They have brought so much joy into my life and can ALWAYS put a smile on my face. William has adjusted really well to being a big brother and Lucas always has a smile for William! I think that the past year has brought us closer as a family and I am very grateful for that! 

William really is growing into his own little person and loves to laugh and be silly. He is also full of creativity, likes to explore and seems to really enjoy life! He likes to be outside, but enjoys inside time as well. Right now, he loves Curious George. This summer, he even got his very own "George" tea set. He loves music (as we know) and sometimes, I can hear him singing and making up his songs. I can't wait to see his dance moves!

Lucas is everything I knew he would be, full of light and love. He literally sparkles ✨ from the inside out. He is a good sleeper and wants to eat every few hours or so. He is getting so big and is just a little bundle of squishy baby love. He is so perfect. He is starting to talk and make little gurggly noises, which he waits for a response on. 

I am doing well adjusting to two babies, the hardest part being taking care of myself. But, we are doing well taking care of each other and that's what life is all about. 

Love to all.

Memories

Hello hello! 

Sorry for my recent hiatus. We have been so busy settling into our new life and apartment, I had to take a break from blogging! Just didn't have enough time. I suppose that is to be expected having just had a new baby and all. I will try to write more often now. I have some pics that I want to share! 

My favorite thing to do here is have adventures with our little family! I explore a little on my own, but have so much more fun when Nick is with us. I am better able to relax and enjoy myself. We have seen several beaches, parks, playgrounds, and had a few outings in the city. I know that one day, these will all be some of my favorite memories of my life. The beaches are so beyond gorgeous. The air always feels light, cool, and refreshing. The water is always a little chilly. AND there are cliffs surrounding the sandy shore. It is so beautiful. I get such a feeling of peace, like I know I am supposed to be here and experience this. Anyways, more to come!
