Busy Mollie

We had a really busy and fun fall weekend this weekend. First, we had dinner to celebrate sukot with our friends Deb and Ethan and Mara and Reuben and Maggie and Rob, and all the kids. Aren't the kids cute eating dinner at the kiddie table?After dinner, Mollie inspected Emma's teeth.
Rina playing hide and seek with her big bag of cookies!

After dinner, Liam did a lovely Rocknocerous concert for all of us. Mollie had the best time dancing with Maggie.

Dancing...
Dress up...
and dessert :)
Later we went outside to see the sukah. It was a really fun night!
Saturday afternoon we went to Nana and Pop-pop's and played bubbles.
Later that day we went to Maggie's birthday party. We can't believe she's already two. I didn't get enough pictures, I'm hoping her parents have some more I can steal. Here's Silas and Mollie in the moon bounce!
Sunday, we went to a BBQ for Louie's work.
Then, we went to Adam's firetruck birthday party. Mollie got to go in a fire truck, do arts and crafts and eat cake. Needless to say, she had a pretty wonderful time!
She also got a little fire truck to take home.
Adam had a really cool fire truck cake.
From Adam's, we went to our neighbor Asha's birthday party. Mollie chased her around saying "Asha, Asha" while Asha ran away. Pretty cute.
Then we met Margie, Andrew, and Andy for dinner and Pitango dessert. What a great weekend!

Happy New Year

Happy new year! This year, with Louie in California, we went to tot service at synagogue with Nana and Pop-Pop in Bethesda. We had a great time making crafts and singing songs, there was a play and even a very short torah reading. Probably the most fun service I've ever been to.

Mollie probably should have gone with some more artsy members of her family, but she was stuck with us :)

Silly Mollie

We made a quick stop at CVS to pick up a few things, including stickers. I turned around at a red light and... And Pop-Pop showed her how to make her bull ring out of this teething toy. It goes perfectly with their favorite chant. ;)

All our love

This post is in loving memory of great grandma Kassie! We love you and miss you.

Monkey hat

We've had a lot going on and so have not done a proper update to Good Gollie, but wanted to quickly post this pic of Molls in the sock monkey hat.

Last summer swim

Until next summer, Mohican!

Labor Day Weekend!

We had a really great visit with Poppy for Labor Day weekend. We got Mollie an aqua doodle for the car ride on the advice of friends and it worked like a dream. When we got there, Mollie taught Poppy how to use an iPad. Then Poppy took us out for a lobster feast. It was delicious (Mollie had grilled cheese). Here we are post-feast.
Poppy got some special treats for Mollie, including a new stuffed bear and some ice cream with chocolate sauce. That was a big hit.
They also got some quality snuggling time in. Very sweet!
Sunday we enjoyed our last summer swim at Mohican and then had Mexican food at Cactus Cantina with Rina and Liam and their parents. I took some really cute pics of the kids swimming but my camera seems to have eaten them. So here's one of the girls snacking at dinner.
