family timez

we had a nice weekend, I hope you did too.

my older sister & her family came to visit NYC this weekend.  we did a lot of fun things, like go see dinosaur bones at the museum, brighton beach (where pretty much everyone is russian), restaurants for days, some shopping and more beach.
anthony (who goes by Tosha) is so big now. he has two big kid teeth in front. he's becoming...older! (duh! but still, so strange!)
my little neice Alicia (a-lee-see-ya) has such an adorable & hilarious personality, was really cool to get to know her more. ( & to top it off she's such a cute little monkey.) 

she has a really silly sense of humor. her favorite thing was to make this face at me & make me think she was upset at something. this face was always followed by a giggles, b/c she couldn't hold it for too long. 
i tried to take family photos for them, but sometimes it's tough getting everyone's face & background & focus to cooperate
my sister took a really sweet photo of nate and me.
my favorite part about the photo is the pair of little legs between us.
ok. once again. here i am, up later than i want to be, on a sunday.
there were some sad good byes happening when they left. no worries, we'll see each other soon!

have a great week everyone.
bye.

  6. The last three photos are so adorable. As is your new header picture. Also, please have children. (It doesn't have to be on purpose.) (I'm kidding.) (But not really.)
