Nick and Daddy's Big Day Out

Claire and I went shopping last week leaving the boys at home alone.

Once we left they got restless so they got dressed and went out... and got on a bus

and rode till they couldn't ride anymore because of a parade for Chinese New Year

Then they got on a train-

and another train-

and another train

and rode to Grandma's house in Brooklyn

Where they called us to come and get them.

Date Night

Went on a date with my husband- a dressed up without the kids date.
(I think it's our first ever)
It was a great night.

I still love him (and it's been almost 5 years!)

D is for

Daddy and Dinosaur: Jim took some time on his day off to do the Letter of the Day with Claire. It just happened to be D like daddy. They made dinosaurs out of the letter and then played with them for quite some time while I made dinner. It was really sweet to get to listen in on their play from the kitchen. My kids are super lucky to have such a great Daddy.

Dinner: Dinner tonight was stirfry? - any vegetable that was in my crisper with some soy sauce and ginger over rice.

Say AHHH

Mommy- what IS this stuff?

They are talking to each other, right after this Claire and a little girl named Kate got into a debate about favorite princesses and best snow activities (Kate thinks snow angels, Claire is a fan of the snowman; they agreed to disagree.)

I did however drop the ball on pictures of Nick making HUGE bubbles, and Claire putting herself inside a bubble. But hey, sometimes you just need to live the moment and keep the memories in your mind :) They usually look better there anyway.

My Three Kids

Some toys just need a video to show just how much fun they truly are.
