Tuesday's outfit for Day 2 of sightseeing…
Knowing we were going to spend the day in an AC'd environment I wore this thicker silky top and the linen shorts… They were fine inside but would have died if we spent any extended time outside in the 93 degree heat….
Still I didn't have me to put any make-up on...
Top and Shorts - J Crew Factory
Sandals - Steve Madden (TJ Maxx)
Denim Jacket - Vintage…
WASHINGTON D.C. & Alexandria, VA:
We spent Monday thru Wednesday at my sister in law's town visiting her and my little niece and nephew. My brother was away on a business trip so we missed him but we spent as much time as we can with them.
The kids bonded so much with their younger cousins. My nephew is 4 years younger than my son and 2 years younger than my daughter but they absolutely adore him and my son never stopped playing with him and he thinks my son is the coolest guy on earth. Despite the fact that my little niece was only 7 mos old they also loved her. My daughter especially would kneel in front of her and talk and sing to her and show toys without getting bored. It was just so special to see them bond…
We tried to take them sight seeing but they could only handle so much of east coast heat they are not accustomed to after our sunny but cooler San Diego.
Even my energetic son who could play hours of sports was dying to sit down and stop walking.
So we did as much as they could handle of the sights.
THey enjoyed most playing with the cousins at their AC'd house anyway…
Their favorite thing in the hotel we stayed at was to run down the corridor from the elevator to our room which was way at the other end of the hall. Every sing time despite how tired they were they would race…
My daughter is just a ball of positive energy. She just radiates this positive vibe all around her with her excitement and enthusiasm and amazing ability to express her happy thoughts…
It has been chaotic at times but mostly very pleasant and fun….
Now we go to South Carolina to visit their other cousins on my husband's side…
