NYC Visitors!

We had a busy and fun week last week. Pete's brother Tim and his girlfriend Lori came for a visit......all the way from New York City! We hadn't seen them since the kids were 6 months old! They arrived on Monday. Gavin and Emery were WOUND UP and were loving the attention. To top it off, they came with some awesome NYPD matchbox cars........police cars, fire trucks, a helicopter, etc...... As you can imagine, they were a big hit! They also brought lots of NYC shirts for the kids. Emery's favorite has a subway train on the front and back. She literally refused to take it off. On Tuesday night, we dropped the kids off at Grandma and Grandpa's house for a couple of nights, so we had a day and 1/2 to be normal adults! We ate at our favorite restaurants, gave Tim and Lori a tour of the DFW area, and spent most of Wednesday afternoon at the JFK museum in downtown Dallas. I gained 5 pounds while they were here and I don't think it was all baby weight!

Unfortunately, I was too busy enjoying the food and conversation that I didn't take many pictures. We had a great time and can't wait until they come back to visit!

Amazed by the fire truck with a real working ladder!

Checking out the ladder. The "working ladder" was officially broken within 24 hours!


Taking the cars for a ride in her stroller. They also sat at the table with her and she fed them lunch!

Sporting his new Yankees t-shirt and STILL holding on to the fire truck!


Thanks Tim and Lori for visiting!
