Best picture of all time?

Our friend Trista took this photo a few days ago. When I saw it I nearly died. I kept going back to look at it over and over again all day.

Isn't it just the cutest?

I will have to re-enact this one with his cool sunglasses on. Next time...

Make over

What do you think of my new look on the blog?

My friend Katie is a graphic designer and gave my blog a makeover! I am so excited with the result. Thanks Katie!!

Check out her ridiculously cute blog over at http://polkadotsoup.blogspot.com

It's been quite a while since I've updated on a frequent . I have to use the Blogger app instead of the computer these days which is pretty limiting when it comes to editing. I'm not crazy about using it, but I'll try :)

Into himself

Breton loves the front facing camera... Yep he's into himself!

His face lights up as soon as he sees his reflection.

It's likely not going to help the situation in the future if we keep buying him shirts like this:

First Multitude Monday

I'm going to start copying Katie and Heidi and begin blogging a multitude Monday list. It's a fun list of ten things I'm thankful for, which I will share on Mondays. Of all the days of the week, Monday sure gets a bad rap so hopefully this brightens your day a bit.

1. For beautiful sunny weather after a lots of rain.

2. Having a beautiful lake and shiny new parks within walking distance of our home.

3. An adorable farmers market in our town. It's right on the lake! The three of us walked there for opening day this weekend.

4. Getting to spend every day with my little monkey!

5. My orchid coming back to life. A friend gave me an orchid when I was sick in the hospital and it later lost it's bloom. It's back in full force! It is one of my favorite flowers.

6. A friend for Breton. We recently were able to visit with our friends Jim and Emily who have a little guy who is a couple months older than Breton. I hope they will be lifetime buddies!

7. A new color for our ugly fence! I will show you a before and after picture when it's finished.

8. Having fun with Breton. He's seven months now... And it is such a fun age. Everything he does is so cute, and he's not at the stage yet where he's running around and constantly keeping me on my toes! I'm really focusing on just enjoying every minute of our time together. It's not very hard to focus on that!

9. Family that lives nearby: Ramona and her kiddos came up for the night last week. We hit up a Red Sox game and it was so nice to see the kids enjoying the pool and badminton set!

10. iMessage with my sisters. The four of us have a constantly running ongoing chat where we talk about pretty much everything. It makes me feel so much closer to them.

Hope you enjoyed! Come back next week for more :)

Visitors

We were fortunate to have both my brothers come visit with their families back in March. It had been a while since we saw either of them and they wanted to meet Breton. There were an extra five kids in the house, four of them being boys. It was busy, but fun!

Jonah, Nate and I explored the park next to our house...
