Meet the Cousins

By
I've been a bit lazy on updating the blog. Bear with me as I add a few from recent events.

Earlier in November, Jack took his first trip to Massachusetts to meet the rest of his family. First thing to note is that it only took us a little over 3 hours to drive from NYC to Leominster. This, my friends, is a land speed record for us and makes the drives that take 4.5 to 5 hours suck even more.

More important, Jack met his cousins - Julia and Connor - and his extended family. It was a rambunctious event. What else would you expect from a MacFarlane gathering? Pictures are below.

A few recent pictures of Spencer.

We lucked out and got an extra seat for his carseat (ok, I lucked out, but still...)  Sleepy times with Grandma    Enjoying a new toy!   Such a big boy

Growing up

By
Jack and Spence "graduated" from their respective preschool programs in the last couple of weeks. While the road along the way wasn't always the smoothest, the outcome couldn't be better. At Spencer's 2s club event, the kids demonstrated all the new skills they had learned in the gym. Lots of forward rolls, big jumps on the trampoline, and amazing core strength. The kids then enjoyed their favorite book of the year: mean soup. Afterward each child received an award. Spencer followed Jack's footsteps on this part by refusing to go up to accept the award. Regardless, we were so proud of Spence. He loved having his independence, being involved in a class, making new friends, and just having fun. Next year Spence starts preschool at the Y. Jack's tender care graduation was last friday. The event was held in the Little Theater at the Y. Jack was so excited to be on the stage. The class sang several songs ending with what has to be the anthem of kids 3...
