We know we have lot's of catching up to do. We had a week off around Easter time and went to visit the Clement Cousins in Washington D.C. We were lucky enough to have our nanny Ashley come up and visit for the weekend!

Ashley surprised us all by bringing Kristin! Tubby Time was quite the event with all Four in Kim and Jeff's garden tub. The parents were lucky enough to get a night out on the town while the girls watched the kiddos!

Someone needs to teach Grandpa which is the correct bottle. . .
