Aviva "reads"

Aviva loves to pretend to read.  Check it out below.  I can't remember when she learned all of her letters, but I think it was many  months before this video was taken.

FFF #8: Top of the stack

This week Franklin's wearing, well, whatever was at the top of the stack of onesies.  It happens to be another very cute 3 month Carter's onesie from Seamus and Rory (thanks, cousins!) but was not specifically selected for this photo shoot.  Still, we managed to get a few good photos.

What??!?! You're taking a photo...of me?!??

Yes, I can smile, even at 5 PM

You don't know it but immediately after this photo shoot I plan to cry for three hours
Happy Friday, everyone!

Aviva's Special Outfit

A few months before she turned three, Aviva started really getting into dressing up.  Check out her outfit in this clip from August 2013.  It appears to be a swimsuit, one sock, a winter hat, and the top part of a bikini (around her neck.)  Special.




Our friends Erik and Nicole and their daughter Lily must have come over for dinner that night. Lily and Aviva both continued to play dress-up that night.

FFF#7: Later, Gator

Yet another Carter's onesie from cousins Seamus and Rory (and their Norwalk hospital hat, as well.)

"Yes, I have a message printed on the soles of my feet"

Happy Friday!

FFF#6 Skiing, anyone?

It's cold here.  Not snowy, icy, Boston winter cold, but, well, maybe it's in the 60s in the house sometimes.  So Franklin has to bundle up.  Or rather, I like to bundle him up.  This week he's in a long-sleeved 0-3M Carter's onesie (which I call his Grover outfit,) and two adorable pieces by Hanna Andersson: his size "90" light blue and orange ski sweater, and his, um, bonnet.

Is it called a bonnet when a boy wears it?

 Anyway, enjoy!
Spit bubbles never hurt anyone

"Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk..."

Whoa, I'm falling over...

Hooray, it's Friday!

Don't I look thoughtful?


And one extra snap, even though it wasn't taken on Friday: STRIPES!  We'll be putting on more stripes in the future - maybe even this exact same outfit again.  Four types of stripes!
