Cape Cod BEACH time!

-
Conor and Caden seriously love the beach and the sand and the ocean. They are so calm and play together really nicely. We brought them to the beach on Saturday and again on Sunday and they had a blast.


I mean, is he not having the time of his life?!


We also thought it was time to pull out their little toddler beach chairs. I love that they are covers on them - especially since they don't always keep their hats on. It's nice to give their heads a little breathing break.


Trying to see the airplanes! It's so bright!



When we brought them down to the water, they started out holding Jim's hands. They couldn't wait to run right in...especially Conor.


Then we switched. I got overwhelmed quickly lol.



On Sunday, I brought them to the beach by myself while Jim was building our new shed for the Cape house. There were only a few minor issues with kids running into the parking lot and down to the water - but considering I am the size of a whale, I think I handled it pretty gracefully. :)

Mom and Cay (little did I know that Caden was coming down with the same head cold as me at this point...)


Mom and Con (same goes for Con...lots of sneezes and bad runny nose. They were up ALL night. Poor guys).


They played so well, too! 


While the boys were in bed (trying to sleep...), Jim and I enjoyed this amazing meal outside. I can't take any of the credit though. We ordered one salmon dish from the Black Cat in Hyannis, and I made the caprese salad with garden fresh veggies to go alongside the salmon. It was so fresh and delicious. It hit the spot. And I LOVE these plates from my second cousin Jessica - for my bridal shower over 6 yrs ago! I actually packed them up to bring back to my house so I can use them more.


Now we are trying to get back into the swing of things. The boys are taking a nap and then we have early intervention later. Then we get to see Shay and Kyle for dinner! :)

All for now...

xo,
Shaz

  Here is Cal’s journal :) Saturday Feb 18 We packed our big van and drove to NEW YORK CITY.  It was a long drive. We got to play the switch for a little bit, and we also rested. We got Subway turkey sandwiches on the way to New York. We stopped at a rest stop to go pee. It was crowded. Then continued driving to New York. We got to the hotel in new york and our room was not ready. We walked to central park and climbed rocks and took pictures of birds. We saw some big horses that had carriages on them for people to have a ride around the park. We went to the central park zoo but it was closed. We then found mom and dads friend Lauren and we got pizza together. Dad helped her get a taxi home. We went to bed in the hotel and saw lots of lights and buildings. Sunday Feb 19 We went back to Central Park to feed the birds and eat bagels. We had so much fun feeding the birds.  I love Mom.  I love Dad.  I love Conor and Caden so much.  I love me.  I love everyone in the world. We saw people ice

Me and Jim have some hard news to share. We originally did not think we were going to post something so personal - but while going through this experience, I feel it’s important to share our story and hopefully help other people going through this same emotional roller coaster. It’s sad, it’s frustrating, it’s scary, and quite frankly it is ROUGH.   Here is our story - We surprisingly found out we were expecting over the Fourth of July, our favorite holiday and our favorite week with our favorite people. Naturally, it felt exciting because it was an awesome time. Nonetheless, we were shocked and terrified because our youngest is five. Quite the age gap when you have three kids in 26 months. Fast forward: On Friday, September 24, 2021, when I was 16 weeks pregnant, we found out we were having our fourth boy. We were excited and not at all surprised haha. We knew it was another boy by my symptoms and how I felt.  September 24 is my moms birthday, and September 23 is my dads birthday. Tha

 Here is Mr Caden Francis! Saturday Feb 18 We rented a new car and packed it up on Saturday morning.  We then drove to New York.  It took almost 4 hours! We did a little bit of television, then we rested with our blankets and pillows and then we ate Subway sandwiches.  When we got to NY, we went to Central Park! There were so many birds there. We took a lot of pictures of birds at the New york park (the birds were fat). It was SO FUNNY! We then saw Dad’s friend Lauren and got pizza with her. We watched some youtube videos while we were at dinner. The pizza was so yummy.(My Favorite Bird in the world.) Sunday Feb 19  On Sunday morning we woke up in NY city. We found a place that sold bagels!!! We each ordered a bag and walked back to Central Park. We were sad when we found out the bird sanctuary was closed until 11 o'clock. We were sad but we still saw some more birds and tried to give them our crumbs. We then got in our car and started to drive to Washington DC It took about 4 h
