Marshall's Crossing or The Maltese Sippy Cup

First, do check out our last Halloween adventure. Then, read on for our loose adaptation of any number of gagster/film noir movies you may or may not have seen.

Mr. M.: Should we be doing our job?
Mr. m: Our job is trick-or-treatin'.
Mr. M: Then lets do a trick and get us some treats.

Mr. m: I ain't goin' nowhere without my sippy, see.

Mr. M.: Well I ain't goin' nowhere without you, Mr. m., see. Now lets stop pussy footin'.

Mr m: I'm already ahead of you Mr. M.

Mr M: We too late, Mr. m?

Mr. m: Nah. We just gettin' started, see.
Mr. M.: Nighttime. Now's when we score some good loot.
Mr m: I think I smell a rat!
Mr M: Nah. That's our pal Geoge. He's alright.

Mr. M: Say, who's the grinnin' dame that's got her paws all over us?

getting ready for the big day

baaah baaah

Now that the boys know all the sounds animals make, it was very exciting for Morris to get up close and personal with a real sheep. This is the same farm we went to last year. What a difference a year makes!

We also went hunting for pretty leaves in the orchards (apple picking was a bit overwhelming for the boys - their favorite food - apples - everywhere - on the ground, on the trees . . . it was too much - maybe next year).

Old post!

Its true, we haven't posted forever, so got an older event to report on - our trip to Governor's Island. Was amazing. We rode bikes all around it - and it was the boys' first boat trip! Here they are:

Greetings From St. Maarten

Just got back from an excellent and relaxing week on the beach. Here is just a taste of some of the beautiful times we had.

Morris' First Steps!!

Morris has been doing these little sprints all week. Max is solidly standing and is well on his way to walking too! Oh boy!

International Men of Mystery

We are planning a vacation this summer and needed to get the boys passports. Here are their pictures. Not looking their best . . .

Ginger Snap!

We were making dinner last night and were about to chop up these two pieces of ginger. We realized that they reminded us of Max and Morris. Can you tell which is which? We think its really obvious.

surf's up!

First day at the beach! The guys loved it. Morris may not be smiling in these pics, but he really was giddy our entire trip and couldn't get enough of toes in sand and those silly waves coming towards him. And, yes, measuring cups and Tupperware are among the boys' favorite toys.

party animals

Boys hit THREE birthday parties this weekend! This is some cupcake eating at their buddy Georges's excellent fiesta.

No, the boys didn't get into a knife fight . . .

RASPBERRIES!!
