Love and Spice: Comings and Goings

Comings and Goings

The boys are really enjoying their playroom! And frankly, so am I! It's so much easier to look after them in there, with all their toys on display. They can get the stuff easily, and they can entertain themselves for much longer.

They both love this "house." It's pretty neat. It does a ton of different things like say "open" and "closed" when you open the door. You can ring the doorbell and put mail in the mailbox....oh what fun!

Hello! And goodbye!

Mostly the boys play independently and leave each other alone. But every once in a while one decides he wants the other one's toy. Then they wrestle with each other. In this case, I love the progression of these photos.

Sebastian thinking about his next move...

Yep, he's going to try to crawl on top of his brother.

Up he goes!

And now he's darting off to do something else--probably grab my cell phone and try to eat it.

Two weekends ago we took the boys to Boston. It's actually the second time they've been to the city. The day was PERFECT in terms of the weather. The boys are so much more alert now and they love to take walks. They stay awake and really look around to try to take everything in. It wasn't too long ago that the stroller would immediately put them to sleep. But not anymore.

This is a random shot of my boys before their bath and bedtime. Sebastian must have had something REALLY delicious for lunch. Or he threw up. I can't remember!

In their PJs now and ready for bed!!

Last weekend we took the boys to Home Depot after going out to breakfast. They actually LOVED Home Depot, although you'd never know it from the photos. There was so much going on for them to look at!

Last Saturday afternoon, we took the boys to Thomas Paone's 4th birthday party. As always, we had a great time seeing the Paone clan. Lorna found one of Thomas or Caroline's exersaucers--it was a lifesaver for the boys! They loved being in it.
