settling in

about a week after moving into our new home, ben started his new job and we started to settle in to our new life & find 'normal.'  i decided to resign from my job and become a full-time mom, so it was a relief to close that chapter & not to have to worry about finding child care, etc.  with emre out of school until january (when he turned 3), i quickly realized what being a full-time mom is all about:  keeping the kids busy!  luckily, we discovered there's lots to do in this area.


playing with the train display at the bookstore

enjoying american cereal - what a treat

autumn baby

brothers snuggling up on lazy fall afternoons

loving his new playroom

discovering new playgrounds & parks

my poor baby has had a tough time dealing with the transition & became super clingy - too much for a 4 month old : (

…not that i mind having him cling!

playtime at the local gym

doing my best to keep up until he can get back into pre-school

LOVE the local children's museum


typical scene on our drive home


naptime for all

hanging with my boys

loves his sophie

wegmans… need i say more?

it's been fun to reconnect with old friends.  our friend joe helped hang the tv when he came for dinner (he also unclogged the sink & informed us we need a new garbage disposal - thanks, joe!)

lunch out with my boys (photo by emre)

conquering the playground!

we love having a basement for the boys to play in

eating his veggies like a pro!

simple pleasures: shopping with his own cart
