it's my girls' world

On the eve of my almost 3 year old's special day, I asked her just  a few questions… the plan is to ask these questions for years to come to see how she changes over time…. and to see if her apparently unhealthy obsession with Magnaformers has ended! Read on to understand…

Linking up with Beth and some other lovely ladies for Tuesday Talk

Better late than never seem to be my theme on my little space these days. Seriously, this summer of fun should also be coined 'summer of neglect' or maybe 'summer of fatigue'. My kids- even my six year old- have been napping everyday when they can and we have been on the go, almost every single day with day trips, playdates, swimming and little outings. When anyone cancels, I'm seriously a little glad as it gives me a little time to play catch up online, clean my house or do a little planning for A's sunshine birthday party!

But yeah, back to our trip to NY a few weeks ago. Just my little ladies and I took this trip- my first time on an airplane flying solo with both of them. Seriously, there were moments I thought I would lose my mind as both flights were just around A's naptime. Add to that her very new insane huge crazy little tantrums and her striving towards independence like big sister-- we had some struggles! However, an iPad, some little dolls, a borrowed Leap Pad (thanks, Jenn) and some snacks thrown in and we made it!

We did something small and fun everyday but overall it was a fun getaway with lots of family time and late night chats thrown in- my parents and aunts live there.I also managed to sneak off for some grown up meals and shopping while I had free, willing babysitters.

Here's what we did- in my #everydayphoto fashion.

Day 175

Airport time

Day 177

A little Disney Store shopping with Grandma

A little visit to Sheepshead Bay

Day 178

We spent the day with Dhilan again! These two missed their nap. My sister in law and I took them to Century 21 and for a  wine run walk to make them sleep. Didn't work. I also had the most AWESOME truck food! 

After lunch, I wanted to take the girls to a splash pad but they were content to just run around in the backyard with a sprinkler.

Happy Friday!!!

 

We've been to quite a few amusement parks this summer and guess who's been having the very best time! The bumpier and faster the ride, the better. Is it a second child, freer spirit, more independent kind of thing?

She barely meets the height requirement for these.
