  Cabo and Wabo got to meet Sarah and Nicole!!!!     *Backstory of Cabo and Wabo: When Sarah, Nicole and I visited Cabo in early December, I was about 19 or so weeks pregnant. It was epic. We were #legends at the Royal Solaris, drank winnie the poohs and banana sexys, our concierge guy "Jorge" was a hoot, we went on a glass bottom boat and saw THREE WHALES then spent the rest of day on Lover's Beach. Seriously, it couldn't have been more fun. While there, we nicknamed the boys "Cabo" and "Wabo" because of the bars and booze around town. I'm pretty certain the girls wanted them to seriously be named Cabo and Wabo. Haha so needless to say, Nicole had these adorable onesies made and gave them to the boys over the weekend.     Sarah and Nicole are some of the bestest people and bestest friends in the entire world. They are so reliable and supportive, constantly there to listen and lend a helping hand and OF COURSE always around f

Conor, Caden and I decided to spend the month of August in Massachusetts visiting both Nana and Gramps Phelan in Cape Cod, and also Grammy and Grampa Callahan in Woburn. My mom recently had a few cortisone shots in her hands, so she had to take 8 weeks off from work. I thought it would be fun to hang out with Grammy while she rested up! Look at my happy little three month olds!!! This picture was taken on August 6, 2014 in my old bedroom in Woburn. Conor left, Caden right. And Caden left, Conor right! We have been in MA now a little over three weeks - splitting our time between Woburn and Cape Cod. A few weeks ago, my mom and I visited Chrissy for lunch in Boston. We went around the Public Garden and the Common. It was such a beautiful day. I even visited the Boston office for my work! I was happy to visit with Milady and walk around the city. Here are a few favs from the day.   DADDY came back to MA and visited with us for the week. Here are the boys hangin

Our big family vacation this year we decided would be a week at our cottage in the Cape. While Fourth of July is an absolute blast (and our favorite week of the whole year) we decided it would be nice to spend some quality family time down the Cape with our two favorite little boys. I was able to visit with my cousins Jen and Jess, and Jen's two little ones - Callie and Patrick. Here are Jen, Jess and me...with Conor, Callie and Caden! We visited Little Beach and saw the Condons and the Niessinks. The boys were on their best behavior. The water came up so far we had to move our chairs three times!!! Thank goodness Jimmy made us a moat - otherwise, we would've been drenched. Daddy and Conor Mama and her favorite two nuggets! Happy boys!

We drove up from DC on August 1st and the boys were christened at the church we were married at in Woburn. It was such a nice time. Even though we wanted the boys to wear the gowns we were christened in, I wanted them to match. I bought the cutest little matching outfits (with hats and shoes to match!) on amazon.com. All the guys...

What a fantastic meal  My mom ordered the cake!  We were so fortunate to have such a beautiful day for their christening. It was a private ceremony, so it was a small group of about 15 people - and the boys were the only two who were christened. The luncheon
