Welcoming Grandma and Grandpa Frome

It has been a very busy week and of course, the last week of Clara and Emma's "baby" year. The week has been highlighted with major teething from both little ladies and welcoming Grandma and Grandpa Frome.

On Sunday, Clara and Emma went to a 2nd birthday party for their friend, Rohan, at Kidville in NYC. They played in the gym and ate pizza for the first time. Unfortunately, Emma was very uncomfortable after the party and wouldn't take a nap in the stroller, so Mommy and Daddy had to make the tough decision to skip the party for friends Jordan and Spencer in the afternoon. Emma and Clara both slept a bit on the ride back to Westchester so Mommy and Daddy decided to stop in Tarrytown for some ice cream. While unloading, another set of twins stopped to say hi! After a stop at Main Street Sweets, Clara and Emma were hot and fussy so it was time to go home. Mommy even put Clara down for a third nap and woke her up to take a bath and eat. Grandma and Grandpa arrived just in time to say hello and good night!

On Monday, it was lots of fun to play with Grandma and Grandpa in the morning- an advantage of having them at the house. Clara loved to show how she can walk with the walker- and is always impressed with herself. Emma enjoyed having so many people to read to her. Grandma and Grandpa went sightseeing and Cheri came to watch Clara and Emma while Mommy did some errands. Tuesday, Grandpa accompanied Mommy, Clara and Emma on their morning walk along the aqueduct. Grandma and Grandpa helped Mommy give Clara and Emma a bath, which they loved.
