Berry Fun

 

In what's become a seasonal ritual for my friends and I, we traveled to Chester, NJ, to Alstede Farm to go berry picking early this week. This is the same farm we've been to for apples and pumpkins for the past couple of falls, and berries last summer, and it's a great spot that the kids love. As soon as we got to the berry patches, Eamon got busy "sampling" everything he picked, so we wound up with hardly a berry in the basket. (I was busy feeding Nora, so I was useless). Oh well, at least I got some great photos of Eamon, Owen, and Aiden (and Nora, too!).

Here's a link to all of the photos from the day:

Nora's first barette!

 

Nora's little tuft of hair that runs down the center of her head is finally long enough for a little barette! I've been a big fan of headbands lately, but they're a little ridiculous (in an adorable baby kinda way) so these little bow clips are a nice, subtle statement for my girly girl! Of course I ran out and bought a pack of them...so now Nora will have a clip AND a headband to match every one of her many, many outfits.

Summer!

 
 
 

It's been a while! The days continue to fly by with no time to post pictures or write anything other than the words I'm paid to write, but I just wanted to share some pics of the past week. We had a great impromptu summer kickoff at my parents last week. Pool, ice cream, picnics, playground...E and N did it all and loved every second. More photos (and stories) to come, I hope! Happy Summer!
