Uncle Jim!

Uncle Jim was in town over the weekend and the kids had an absolute blast with him. Layla is still asking for him and gets a frown when I remind her that he went home. She's been talking all about the fun things they did together.....letters, books, play-doh, etc.

For some reason, while Jim was here Layla decided to have two of her worst nights of sleep ever....a 4:15 wake-up and a midnight scream fest. Sorry, Uncle Jim!

My Aunts Rock!


Aunt Christie lent us this fun chair, which is way more exciting than the old chairs that Josh had. Aunt Meredith gave Josh this shirt, and yes, Josh's aunts do rock!

Cuteness x2



Layla, sporting her new Cookie Monmots sweatshirt. It will be a sad day when Layla finally learns how to say the word 'monsters' correctly!


You can take the boy out of Maine, but you can't take the Maine plaid flannel out of the boy (especially a boy whose name is Joshua Chamberlain).

So Much Family Fun!


We've had a week filled with family. Visits with aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins, galore.

First, Mimi, Aunt Trish, Bumpa, and Sarah came over to visit. Mimi got lots of laughs from Josh and the girls sure had fun playing together.


Then we did a day-trip to CT to see Daniel and Sofia. Sofia took right to Chris and sought him out all afternoon.


The next day we went to the Children's Museum with Mimi, Aunt Trish, Sarah, and Ryan.


Oh, and Happy 2011. We'll be ringing in the new year fast asleep. Layla is still waking at 5 am, so it's early to bed for us!

Young Love


We had a play date today with Mommy's friends, Mike and Jill, and their daughter, Isabella. Bella is 2 weeks older than Josh but you wouldn't know it based on their sizes!
