Sledding: take 3

By
We went to Central Park yesterday afternoon to enjoy the day's snow fall. We met Lisa, Rich, Niamh, & Imy who graciously let us use their sled. While we didn't have a sled, I made sure that Jack was well prepared for snow with a snow bib, coat, boots, and real gloves. Spence also made use of the great snowsuit that Ylang and Phil lent us (did you guys need this back?!?!). Justin and I are, of course, another story, so we bundled up as best we could.

This time Jack hopped right on the sled and loved it! He took many rides down the hill. And was pulled back up on most occasions. Finally Rich had him pull the sled up himself. He made it - though it took about four times as long!

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...
