Happy Memorial Day!

Busy, busy weekend! And it's not over yet!

But first a picture from when we were waiting to go see the pediatrician last week. We went and got smoothies because I thought it would help Sofie feel better...she loves smoothies. She didn't really want to drink them, but she thought she should hold all the cups.


Our good friends Donny and Krissy, and their daughter Bella, were in town this weekend. Donny and Marc were in the Marine Corps together. But they had the nerve to move back home to New Hampshire about 2 years ago. Saturday we meet for drinks with them and a bunch of guys who were in the Marine Corps with Marc and Donny.

Bella and Sofie playing outside the restaurant. (Bella is only about 5 weeks older than Sofia....look at all the hair she has!)




Then we decided last minute to go to the National's baseball game. This was Donny's first time at the new ball park (you can see him in the background taking pictures). Krissy was showing Bella the field.


Marc showing Sofia the field.


Sofie and I during the game. It was free hat night.


Bella and half of Donny.


While we were waiting for the Metro, Sofia and Bella started giving each other hugs.


Then we went to the Zoo today. Kyle and Krissy A. came with us, with their son Joe. (Joe is about a month older than Bella.) Our 3 kids are the ones on shoulders in this picture. Kyle in the foreground with Joe in the red shirt. Donny and Bella (in purple hat) in the middle. And Marc and Sofie just past Donny.


We tried to get all the kids to pose by this statue.


Sofia thought about petting it. But this is about as close as Bella got to it.


Yeah, didn't go so well.


Sofia crapped out. She had a long day.


Saturday, before we met for drinks, we went to IKEA. They were having a major sale on some bookshelves (which we needed). And Sofia got a table and 2 chairs....Sofie sized.


And she got a little tent to play in. She made Mommy join her and pretend to go night night.


She loves her new tent.


Pictures of the bookcases to come once we get them put together and have stuff in them.
