two weekends ago, we took a somewhat impromptu trip to philly. jeremy was on vacation and needed to do some paperwork and stuff at the hospital in philly so they will still employ him in july. plus we hadn't been down to philly since caroline's bestest friend ginny was born, so we had to meet her. both kids were pretty well-behaved in the car on the way down (rented chrysler 300 - not as nice as you might think) and we made good time. at one point caroline was getting a little cranky, probably because she was hungry. as if her wailing wasn't painful enough, quentin started wailing too - but not because anything was wrong - he was mocking his sister, and he thought it was mighty funny.

the kids and i hung out at the norcross house friday morning while jeremy got fingerprinted and stuff. this is what happens when you put a little boy into a house full of girls:

on saturday, jeremy and jeff brought Q and lilly to a (free) fun fest put on by one of their state senators. they got to go on a big slide and see all kinds of trucks and a helicopter. when they got home, Q couldn't stop talking about the big slide and the bouncy house, which they did not even go in. here Q poses with some wrestling belts while some dudes do a radio show presumably about wrestling?

later that evening, lilly introduced quentin to some disney movies he's never seen, bolt and the the princess & the frog. since returning from the trip, "bolbt" is now amongst quentin's favorites and we have watched it 6 or 7 times. sorry lilly, he has not requested any princess movies.

quincy wants popcorn too!

and you can tell jeff took this picture because it is a good photo, as opposed to the crap my camera takes (new camera on the way from target.com - thank god.)
-
-
in the morning, they picked up right where they left off, watching cartoons

and then we tried to get some nice pics of the babies and all 4 kids together. needless to say, my camera did not perform well at this already challenging task:

It's hilarious how the babies' heads are tilting the same way in the 2nd picture of them!
So fun that you get to move close to your good friends!
