Playdate with Lili and Meagan

I got a text this morning from Meagan asking what we were up to today.  And since both of our schedules were wide open, we opted for a playdate this afternoon after the kiddos got their naps in!

Miss Lili took a liking to the Elmo chair.

She was having a grand 'ole time with Elmo!

But she was waiting for a visitor on the empty Mickey couch next to her.

AJ has arrived!

And he's more interested in the watering can than that cute girl next to him! Silly boy!

Not sure how I got so lucky to catch this shot of him - but what a smile!

Lili started to get a little shy and wanted some Momma loving.

But then she ventured out on her own again...

AJ hopped onto his giraffe and ask Lili if she wanted a ride....

...But she was more interested in stealing AJ's snack cup!

Momma snuggles again.

'Lili, can I have some snacks?'

I don't think Lili wanted to share... look at that face on AJ! 

But they reconciled and shared a high-five!

And even got a little close as they listened to some music on Meagan's iPhone!

Thanks for coming over Meagan and Lili - it had been so long and we loved catching up!

Color Me Rad 5k!

About a month and a half ago, my friend Meagan signed up for the Color Me Rad 5k in Hartford and I saw a link to it on facebook and was intrigued by it.  It was a race where you start out with a white shirt and then get color bombed with colored cornstarch while running the race so you come out looking like a tie-dyed crazy person!  I had been wanting to do a 5k for a while now, but no race really sparked my interest as I hadn't had the time to formally train for one.  So when I saw this Color Me Rad 5k, it looked like a lot of fun with all of the color stations and no timing as to when one finished.  It was more about having fun than really being a race - and that's exactly what I was looking for!  So, I signed up for it.  And in the process of signing up I noticed it was perfect timing - the race was the day after my 30th birthday and I couldn't imagine a better start to a new decade than with a splash of color from the Color Me Rad 5k!

Unfortunately, I don't have any before pictures but just imagine us with pure white shirts!

Sarah came down from MA to do the race with me.  Thanks Buddy! :)

I was color bombed!

We survived and crossed the finish line!

Silly posing!

I'm the big 3-0

My sunglasses (provided by Color Me Rad!) were pretty rad with orange color

3-0!

We did it!! So much fun!

AJ's First Date

So even though my little man is only a month old, he's already been on his first date! With who, you ask? None other than my friend Meagan's daughter, Lili.  Lili is about a month older than AJ - she was born on June 12th - and is a cutie patootie!  They enjoyed a quiet evening in the rainforest and had dinner which consisted of munching on each other's hands.  Don't worry ladies and gentlemen, they were supervised! haha  Both Mommy and Meagan were there supervising to make sure they didn't go past first base!  ;)  Just kidding!

'Hey, I think you're kinda cute Lili'

Gazing together at the rainforest lights

'Mmmm... your hand tastes yummy!'
