Another First

Last week, Justin and I broke down and finally got Jack's hair cut. We kept hoping that it would grow in with curls. Instead, Jack looked completely disheveled unless he had sunscreen in his hair - at which point he had greasy, curly, disheveled hair.

We sucked it up and took Jack to a local children's salon. Yes, I'm sure that these mostly exist in NYC - but what else were we to do?

There were tears and a few screams, but it wasn't as bad as expected. The result is a much cuter coif that makes Jack look a year older. Wow - is our little man growing up fast!

the before

not your average salon chair - there was also a tv to watch the movie of your child's choice (we went with Little Einstein's)

things started a bit rough

settled down once he realized a cartoon was playing

the after - our little boy is growing up!

Called up

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!

Veritable Dutch Wonderland

Mother's Day weekend, we planned a little trip out of NYC. We headed to Lancaster, PA - close enough for a night away, but far enough away to feel very different than NYC. The weekend was a lot of fun (and honestly a lot of work). All in all, the boys did well. Highlights below: Dutch Wonderland Lancaster is home to several tourist things. We picked one: Dutch Wonderland family amusement park. My cynical self really doubted that we'd enjoy this experience. I was worried that it would be cheesy. But I was wrong. Well yes, it was kind of cheesy because it was a family amusement park. But it was so fun. The place was very geared to families with young children. The rides are categorized by height so it's easy to know what rides your kids can ride. Jack tried several rides: big trucks, bulldozers, leaping frogs, the monorail. He even drove a car! He had a really good time. Spence was a good sport as there wasn't much for him to do. Maybe next year. Justin felt right ...

Good Morning

What is my big brother doing to me? Brothers hanging in Mommy and Daddy's bed.
