13 months old and enjoying summer in New England

Hard to believe the boys are already 13 months old and even harder to believe that we have been back on the East Coast for 3 months! We have continued to enjoy spending time with Rinus, Daniel and Emilija! Tim's dad, Dave, was also able to pop in and spend an evening with us while down in the area for a tennis tournament. Marie has enjoyed exploring the North Shore with the kids and spending some time with old friends. Tim's job is going well and he is enjoying the new challenges.The boys are both walking now, Paul much better than Neil, but Neil is not far behind.

Karina enjoying some good fruit!

Feeding the sheep at Great Brook Farm in Carlisle, MA.

Karina helping Tim blow out the candles.

Big truck day in Wilmington! Karina actually tried to start the ambulance (that is why she is smiling). I don't know why they left the keys in the ignition!

Karina and her friend Liam explore the fire truck.

Seeing all the big trucks wore Neil out!

...and Paul too! They both fell asleep during the 10 minute drive home.

Enjoying a summer evening outside...before the bugs got to us :)

Karina enjoying her ice cream!

How Neil got in there, I do not know.

"Being this cute is just too much even for me to handle."

Daniel and Emilija posing with a soldier.

Karina enjoying some quality time with Far Far.

Neil and Paul losing steam at the annual Walker bbq on Sunset Lake for Braintree's 4th celebration. We definitely did not make it for the fireworks. Hopefully next year!

Kids horsing around in the red, white and blue Red Sox gear on the 4th of July!

More horsing around.

They play well together in short spurts. So fun to see!

Big boys, riding on their toys! They can't really move forward or backward yet, but seem to enjoy sitting on them.

Beach time!

Paul fooling around in the pack-n-play. Great tool to keep the boys contained and prevent them from eating sand.

Quick picture taken during the 5 minutes they were on the sand before both of them filled their mouths with it.

Paul playing with some of Karina's dress up items. This was Tim's Halloween wig one year.

They are already partners in crime.
