August Birthdays

August has been a bit hectic because our nanny is on vacation.  Yes, for the whole month!  My mom and sister have been helping us out as well as our friend's nanny, which has been great.  Mom and Laura have come to Arlington a few times to watch Frankie, but this has also been a great excuse for us to venture out to Winchester more than we usually do.  Last week, Frankie and I went out on Sunday evening and I worked from Panera on Monday while Mom watched Frankie.  Then we stuck around that evening for Laura's surprise 30th birthday party!
 
Happy Birthday little sister!
Notice the little fingers digging into the frosting
 
Only Laura would beg for a toilet seat for her birthday - I had to get creative so filled the box with candy and said "30's sweet!"  (We also got her a little something else.)
 This week we went out again for Mom's birthday.  Per the request of the birthday girl, we spent the morning at Marker Miller Orchard, followed by pool time back at Grammy's and then a BBQ.

What summertime BBQ would be complete without watermelon?

Frankie made Grammy a garden stone

 Happy Birthday Laura & Mommy! xoxoxo
