Audrey is 3!

Happy 3rd Birthday to Audrey! My tiny and mighty daughter!

Thank you to all our family who loved on her and spoiled her from afar! She was thrilled to open her presents!

Here is her thank you video that I had to clip together because it was just too cute and I kept cutting off the cuteness. "Thanks you for my birthday presents" "and ummm can I have my birthday again?" Yep, she has this figured out now.

Andrew and I got the girls scooters!

Audrey wanted to go to the zoo for her birthday, so we went to the Central Park Zoo!

Penguins! 

 She loves turtles!

Fun at Pier 6, Brooklyn Bridge Park

Huge sandbox

Both girls loved this slide! It was too hot, but we just used our towels and made it work!

Slide mountain video:

I love that all the playgrounds have a sprinkler!

Kristina got this outfit for Addison...now it fits Audrey!

April catch up

Our computer broke, but Andrew built a new one! Then our monitor broke, so we had it replaced. So I'm a little behind...

A trip on the ferry to Long Island City.

The brown, oval building in front of the tall, slanted building is where Andrew works.

Spring soccer season has been fun!

Not a bad view!

Audrey and I get to explore the waterfront while Addison and Daddy play.

Austin and Stephen came to visit...a much needed brother time for Andrew! They pretty much ate and played Mario most of the time. The girls loved having them over! 

Austin has deployed and we are so thankful that technology allows us to communicate!

Audrey went through a glasses phase and started wearing her Waldo glasses everywhere.

 She also loves to get dressed for ballet...which we hope she can start in the Fall.

 Our pumpkin seeds sprouted...then the birds ate them.

Playing in the baseball sand=an hour of fun for the girls and an hour of cleanup at home!

 The girls love to suck on lemon and limes!

Planted more seeds and they sprouted. Tried to scare the birds with tin foil flags, but the birds are brave and ate them AGAIN.

Sharing a last sip of water for the night...PLEASE NOTE: it is still completely sunny outside at 8pm and its made bed time hard!

The umbrella tree is all green now.

Our courtyard is quiet (well, until we come out), green, and full of flowers!

 Each Saturday, we drop off the compost at the farmers market at McCarren park (thank you Tiffy for inspiring us!). Now the community garden next door is open and the girls love it. They call it "The Secret Garden"... it may be time to watch that movie again!
