Jack's 2nd Birthday Party - NYC

On Saturday, September 10th, we celebrated Jack's Birthday with his friends here in NYC. Shhh...don't tell him that his birthday was a month ago. I figure I'll only be able to get away with belated birthday parties for a year or two.

All week leading up to the party, I was worried about the weather. We had rain. Rain. Rain. And more rain. Planning to have a party outside was beginning to seem like a bad idea (especially with no back up location available). Fortunately, the weather cleared at the end of the week and allowed the ground to dry (some).

With the concern about rain gone, we found the driest spot we could in the park and set up shop. Many of Jack's friends were able to attend. They all had a great time - lots and lots of giggling toddlers. These giggling toddlers also managed to find the less dry areas. Jack ended up covered in mud. He is such a boy! At the end of the party, Jack and his friends Jake and Lia started playing ring-around-the-rosie. It was so cute!

I've included some pictures from the day -  most of Jack, Jake and Lia playing.

Even though your birthday was over a month ago - HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY JACK-A-BEAR!!

School Projects

Jack has a school project due this Friday. The project is to visit a specific historic landmark in the city and then put together a write-up about the visit and place. Jack's location is Hamilton Grange which was the country home of Alexander Hamilton. We visited a few weeks ago (yep, we've have the assignment this long). Finally, Jack started putting together the project today. OMG, it was like watching me from 30 years ago. There was denial and defensiveness, then came tears and finally he produced really good work. If this is what the next 15 years are going to be like, we are in trouble. Also - sorry Mom, I know I tortured you with this experience many many times.
