New York, New York!

 Monday was school picture day. We figured we could probably get cuter pictures of Grace on our own. Which one is the best?

 Bonus: She wouldn't be able to get pictures with these cuties if she was at school!

 That evening, Grace finally pulled out her dangling front tooth.

 Charlie needed a haircut.

 Between Paul and Spongebob, we got 'er done!

 Silly bucket hat.

 Beauty!

 Two beauties!

 Waiting to go into the eye specialist. She got tons of compliments on her SWEET outfit!

 Wearing disposable sunglasses after her eyes got dilated.

 Angel Charlie.

 I didn't realize this hand-me-down turtleneck had puffy sleeves.

 He wasn't very happy when he found out.

 These girls were pretty tired still after I got them up on Thursday.

We got a baby that day. Congratulations, Justin and Kelsey! Baby Abel is adorable!

I took Alice to pick out her new glasses that day. So cute! She wishes she didn't have to wait another week for them to come in.

 Getting used to the new smile.

 Grouchy girl.

 9 pounds of apples = 3 jars of applesauce. And sore hands from peeling!

 On Saturday, we went to visit Lynne, Kit, and Addy in New York.

 We met at Liberty State Park in NJ, and ate the great lunch the Burtons prepared.

 Addy warmed right up to Uncle Paul.

 We saw some cool airplanes writing in the sky. Switch to Liberty Mutual.

 Fun on the slides with Grace, Lynne, and Addy.

 They LOVED the Statue of Liberty.

 Charlie loved the water and the boats.

 He wasn't happy when we pulled him away for a picture.

 Women and children.

 Entering Hoboken, NJ just for a glimpse of...

 Carlo's Bake Shop! From TLC's Cake Boss. This is for you, Cassidy!!

 Tuckered out after lots of driving.

 The 4 Gabrielsen grandkids.

Alice loved holding Addy! What a fun trip!
