Holiday Recap

It's only January 22nd - as good a day as ever for posting about our holidays. You probably saw the Merry Christmas post already. We stayed here in NYC for Christmas itself. Then we headed to North Carolina to see my family for a bit. The visit was great for a couple of reasons.

1. Jack brings out a new level of happiness in everyone. I think it's his full face, holding nothing back smile.
2. The weather was nice. We were able to go running a couple of days.
3. Jack slept great! After his 4-month freak out, he settled into a good nap and night routine.

I've included a few pictures from the trip. More are available in the December album (see the link on the left side).

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...
