Easter Recap

By
As usual, I'm late posting pictures from Easter. It was a low-key holiday for us. Justin left Saturday morning of Easter weekend to fly to Asia for a business trip. My mom flew up from NC to help out while Justin was away. Saturday was miserable - cold and raining...ALL DAY!

Fortunately, Sunday was much better weather-wise. We started the morning by going to the Central Park Zoo. Jack had fun at the petting zoo yelling at the bunny rabbit and attempting to pet the baby goats. At the main zoo, we saw the polar bears lounging in the sun and we watched part of the sea lion show. Jack is finally seeing the sea lions, though that doesn't mean they are keeping his attention. I think he most enjoyed walking around the sea lion enclosure.

Later that afternoon, the three of us joined Lisa, Rich, Niamh, and Imy for an Easter Egg hunt in Central Park. All in all, it was a big hit - Jack had fun picking up a couple of eggs while Niamh was able to run around and pick up the rest. Jack then helped to open a couple, sending the contents flying onto the muddy ground! Oh well, next year it will make more sense to him.

I've included a few pictures from the day.

Spencer Time

A few recent pictures of Spencer. He is growing like crazy and picking up all sorts of new skills like grabbing toys on the playmat, grabbing blankets or clothes and shoving them in his mouth, and his new favorite pastime, putting his feet in his mouth (with or without socks!).     Learning all the tricks on his first flight. 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

This weekend, the t-ball team was short a few players. Spencer was called up from the practice team to fill in. He was one of the smallest on the field, but played well, even teaming up with Jack for an out!

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...
