Our Saturday Adventure

While daddy was at work today the rest of us decided to have some fun! First we went for a hike where we saw five goslings. Then we went to an outdoor music festival downtown.  The kids were showered with food samples ... ice cream, yogourt, snack bars, raisins, cereal. To make Wee M's day even better - they were given sunglasses!!  They both had fun dancing to the music, even though it was a bit loud for Wee M!












Science Museum

We went to the science museum yesterday with some friends. A bit advanced and way too many class trips there ... But the kids didn't seem to mind!











Lego

An accidentally smashed tow truck becomes this masterpiece!

Spanish with Dora

The other day Chippy counted to five in spanish ... completely out of the blue.  I asked where he learned it ... Dora!! Between this and pronouncing 'zed' as 'zee', he's half way to being American already! (But don't tell Grammy!)


Mothers Day


It was a beautiful day on Sunday, so we waddled downtown for the Make Way for Ducklings parade!  After the parade we enjoyed lunch at Quincy Market.  Finished the day with steak frites on the back porch!  Couldn't have been a better day!




















Street Toys!

The return of nice weather means one thing in our house ... return of street toy shopping!! Our first sale of the year and we picked up some amazing toys!  Dad and kids spent Saturday morning playing with the 'never been opened' modeling clay!



New Best Park Ever

No park can compare to this NEW park that we found - and it's not that far from our house!  This park combines all the greatest things we have found in our park adventures ... rolly slides, sand diggers, big twisty slides for M, zip lines, teeter totters, a play house, an airplane, and a big open field for running around in!







Okay Parks

We have been making the park rounds over the past few weeks!










Hair

I get a little flak for my recent couponing efforts; however, one of my best deals yet is $.17 kids hair detangler!  Wee M wakes up like this EVERY morning!!  A few squirts and Miss M looks normal again!
