Weekend in Chatham...

Otherwise known as "When all the Karafotas's come together in one house"...

Maya had a great time this weekend with all of her cousins. She's been talking about them for weeks--and for some reason seeing them was associated with making cupcakes (and putting them in the oven and putting sprinkles on them). So we made cupcakes, went to the beach, the playground, a baseball game and toured downtown Chatham.

There are a lot of pictures from the trip..so here we go!:

I do have another child...

Zoe has been very forgotten on this blog recently! Luckily, I got a new camera and practiced using it on her cute little face. This is what I got:

Brave Girl..

Maya has learned to love the ocean...she loves to see the waves coming and get wet as they roll in and out. She took turns taking all of the family members in with her-here she is with Dziadek:








Brave girls also eat sugar breakfasts when their Wai-Po is around..thank goodness it's only on the weekends at the beach!:

Tiny Dancer...

Maya had her first ballet class on Monday and it was a bit hit. She looked adorable in her casual dance outfit, including her ballet slippers. The pictures are from our friend Katie..

Too cute not to post...

These pictures are from Peter's phone from our trip last month to the beach...but I think they are too cute not to post.

Drums..

Maya got a new set of drums that she adores.





Here she is having a jam session with Baba:

CHMS Graduation

About a month ago, Maya graduated from the toddler program at her Montessori school. It was a very cute day-she got to show us what she does every day and then received her diploma...

Pool Fun

We've been having a lot of fun this summer at our pool. Sometimes on weekends we'll stay for dinner and Maya loves having a picnic at the pool. I think it's because there's usually ice cream at the end...

Fun with Abby on the 4th of July...

Maya and Abby had a great evening together for our annual BBQ together. We decorated a flag cake and then there may or may not have been some playing in the water table. Yes, literally in the water table. And of course we had to sing Happy Birthday to the USA. Partly because we are patriotic, but partly because every cake in this house is a birthday cake.

Where was Zoe, you ask? Sleeping. Oh well-next year!

4th of July parade..

Maya had a 4th of July parade at school today. They made flags earlier in the week and were so proud to show off their handiwork. I forgot the real camera, but you'll get the gist..
