it’s really feeling like summer now

The humidity hasn’t hit yet but it’s downright warm today. Despite the copious amounts of sunscreen I slather on the girls everyday, they’re turning tan and Claudine even has funny little tan lines on her feet from her sandals. We met up with some friends in front of the Brooklyn Museum this morning to watch the choreographed fountains, but after 2 short thrilling minutes of shooting water works, the damn thing broke and stopped working. Instead, the kids frolicked on the grass while I tried coaxing Claudine onto the grass but she was not happy. I’m guessing she has some sensory issues because she doesn’t like walking on grass or sand, but seriously….how are we going to get by summer if she’s having these issues? Lunches on days like this are usually containers of fruit, cold cuts, sliced veggies and whatever else we might have in the fridge, laid out on a spread. Like me, Mia doesn’t have an appetite these days. Hard to believe how skinny she is getting - both the girls were such big, chubby babies. Now that she has lost all of her baby fat, she is looking so mature.
