Little Tar Heel

By
As you've read in previous posts, I'm working to get the boys sleeping in the same room together. So far, it's going ok. Nights are better than naps, but we're getting there.

Tonight, Spence went down around 7:15 and Jack went into the room around 8:10. Even though we were super quiet, Spence sat up in bed as soon as Jack and I entered the room. I'm thinking, great - both boys are awake - it could take forever for them to get back to sleep. Jack started talking and singing. Spencer was responding as well as laying back down in his crib (he's was clearly very tired). Justin and I went in a couple of times trying to Jack to lower the volume and really stop talking altogether. After about 20 minutes, I went in again and asked Jack to be quiet. Within a minute of my leaving, he's talking and Spence is starting up with his loud "wah wah wah". (it's not crying, just a sound). I realize that Jack isn't just talking, but has picked up Spencer's "wah wah wah"'s and turned them into "rah rah rah"'s. He's singing "rah rah Carolina".

I just had to smile. We may have a little Tar Heel on our hands after all!

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

By
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 ...
