Fionn was very excited to be going back to Tioronda and Saoirse didn't want to miss out either.
My little boy is growing up quickly. He finally decided it was time to say goodbye to his soothie, which took me completely by surprise. He just said to me last week "I dont want my soothie" and that was it . It does make me a little sad but I am so glad we didnt have to battle it out with him.

Saoirse's 2nd Birthday.
I cannot believe my beautiful little girl is turning 2 already. Time has flown. Saoirse is a very spirited and energetic little girl. She is very friendly and likes to be the center of attention. She loves to sing and dance , but especially likes books. She really loves dogs and wants to play with them all the time. Her favorite toys right now are a little dog and a strawberry shortcake doll. She calls Fionn "Boy" because she cannot say Fionn.
We then had a birthday party playdate with all the childrens friends and had the bouncy castle for them to play in.They had such a marvelous time.
Finally we had the part the kids were waiting for, some delicious chocolate cupcakes.
After everyone left Saoirse just wanted to play with the toys.
Saoirse loves balloons so we started her birthday out with lots of balloons to play with.

Strawberry Picking
Every year we plan a trip to Lawrence Orchard farm to do some strawberry picking. The children did really well picking some very tasty strawberries and also alot of sampling to make sure we wer getting the very sweetest there were.
Sunny afternoon
We were really blessed with some great weather towards the end of our visit and I think the kids favorite activity was to play with the water bucket in the backyard and water all the plants.
We had such a great vacation and the kids were so happy to be with their grandparents. Tim's parents were so wonderful in taking care of all of us while we were staying with them and making sure that we all had an enjoyable vacation. I really feel blessed to have such a loving, generous family.
Dublin City
The children had their first ride on a bus when we took a trip into the city. They were really excited and sung the wheels on the bus song all the way there.
We went to Stephen's Green park where they had a marvelous playground for the kids.

We took a day trip to Bray were they have a wonderful aquarium. The children were really excited to see the different sea creatures especially the large fish tank which had sharks in it.
We all then took a stroll on the boardwalk and threw some pebbles into the sea.

Greenan Farm
One of our day trips was to this great farm that had two mazes. At first we went to the museums and saw some of the animals(mostly chickens and roosters) and then we tried to navigate the mazes.
The first maze was kid friendly and you had to follow the trail to get to the center.
The second one was quite difficult and both the kids got tired so we had to carry them .
But we finally made it to the center.
One of the highlights of the visit were the donkey and the horse that the children got to pet.
