Newborn, New York, No problem. Teaching the girls how to do the city right- first stop, stale cart pretzels. (👌🏻) And also, I now want to see every Broadway show that's out....😬 #citybug Rise & Shine & scrub-a-dub! 💦Daddy is in NYC on business so we've decided on a last minute trip to go meet him for lunch & bring him back home to NJ with us. We're all just a little bit excited...especially this sleep deprived mama! #summeratmimishouse Much needed pool day...cute animal floaties optional. Just kidding, they're totally required. If you watched my stories, then you already know allllll about our day yesterday. We took the kiddos to @storybookland_nj - a place I haven't been to since I was about Q's age. It was THE cutest, most age-appropriate (& SHADED!) theme park I've ever been to! The cotton candy was flowing, Max's stroller naps were abundant, and Q even managed to get MiMi on the Tick Tock Clock Drop. All-in-all it was THE perfect day! Now, if we could only start a petition to replace the Little Red & Alice in Wonderland attraction dolls that are still the same ones from 20 something years ago, because... #chuckynightmares #DollCataracts 😱 Hey, friends!

Not affiliated or sponsored by Instagram. Cub Scout. All week long we've been looking for her "lost sandals". Under couches, in cars, outside, in the basement...you name it, we looked. We've been retracing her/our steps and asking her where her sandals are about 15 million times a day. She'd ignore us, continue coloring or playing and casually change the subject (i.e. "Mom, I'm staaaarving. We should eat now.") And all week long there has been no sign of the damn sandals anywhere. Well, today, when she wanted to go outside- this kid walks into the kitchen, opens the cabinet under the kitchen bench, pulls out the God-forsaken sandals, and says, "Mom, here'd my sandals!" When I picked my jaw up off the floor & asked her what in the world they were doing in a kitchen cabinet, do you want to know what she said to me? Do you??? This child, she looked me straight in the eye and said, "I putted dem there. So that I not lose them." Neat! 😑 A little birdie (aka the internet) told me that yesterday was #nationalicecreamday . And even though we enjoyed a full-fledged ice cream bar yesterday at our family party, we forgot to take a picture. And another little birdie told me that it's not "official" until it's "instagram official".😜 So, more ice cream for us today. Twist our arms.... #qandaandthegaragedoor #summeratmimishouse Mimi's timing for getting a brand new white couch was probably not ideal....😬 #summeratmimishouse "Ey, how YOU doin'?" #summeratmimishouse Dear Beach, we just can't quit you. Love, these coast-deprived Texas dwellers #summeratmimishouse The cry-to-smiles ratio is a bit unbalanced around here lately, so when we get a good happy face, we document!! Also, this onesie from my girl Jen at @swankyshank is 👌🏻. I know he's been around for 2 1/2 months now (how in the world?!) but there is still something so surreal about seeing his name in print! Actually, "him in general" still feels pretty surreal...must be the lack of sleep delirium. 😜 #summeratmimishouse These girls- if only they knew how to let loose and have a good time... #summeratmimishouse Well, the boardwalk called and we answered...in the form of cotton candy, soft serve with sprinkles, and of course Italian Ice. I guess there were a few rides and games mixed in there too, but I mean- hashtag priorities. #jerseyfoodhasmyheart #summeratmimishouse You guys- let me just say that, despite how it may look, traveling with kids isn't all palm trees and rum punch. This last leg of our summer travels has been a doozy and we're paying for it with some sickness, a traveling daddy, overtired babes, and strollers that didn't quite make the flight! Luckily, we're at Mimi's house where we can all relax and focus on being comfortable & regrouping. And regroup we MUST... because the boardwalk is calling our name!! **Side note, how PRECIOUS are these personalized name puzzles from @emryshop ?! The girls think they are the coolest (Well, Q does. Cub is more interested in tearing apart Q's progress and blaming it on the shark) and I think I'm stealing those adorable monogrammed bags they come in!!😬💓) #summeratmimishouse I'm pretty sure the girls were more excited to come to Mimi's House than they were to go to the Caribbean. They've been asking for months and when we finally arrived they barreled through the door and went right to their "toy bin" filled with all the toys collected and left behind from summers past; revisiting little trinkets and the stories and memories that go along with each little doll or stuffed bunny. "This one was from the time we went to the aquarium, remember Cubby? And this one was Mommy's when she was little!" They immediately know the routines and ask about the fun places they know we always visit. They request "the special ice cream place", run outside to see the baby birds that hatched in Pop Pop's garden, and ask when they get to see their cousins. Q gets excited about the rides at the boardwalk that she'll be big enough to ride this year, and they both ask when they can go visit their GiGi and "all her friends" (😂👵🏻👴🏻). I love our tradition of #summeratmimishouse and more than that, I love that they love my childhood home as much as I do. There's nothing more amazing than recreating my own childhood memories with my little babes. Nothing at all. 💛 Move over Bruce, Jersey has a new boy in town and he's coming in hot! As in, you can hear him coming from a mile away. (And I'm not talking about his sweet, sweet musical talent.) #mimihastanarms Over here nursing a hangover from my surprise birthday dinner last night (best time ever!) and dreading the amount of laundry and repacking that needs to get done before we leave for NJ tomorrow morning. (Yes, we are crazy.) But in the meantime I wanted to share that ALLLL the details from our trip are up on the blog now! So if you've been asking about where we stayed and what we did- this post's for you! And now back to my ginger ale & egg mcmuffin... Vacation is the best...but sometimes HOME is just as good!
