Almost Easter!!

Bex has had a wonderful Saturday before Easter. We haven't dyed eggs YET but we did go to The Shake Shack which is Topher's favorite restaurant in New Haven. You can see the picture below of the boys in their matching shirts with Topher teaching Bex to dip his finger in the ketchup and then licking it. We also went to buy Topher some new running shoes and Bex insisted on trying some shoes on too. He walked all over the store with those shoes on. I also included a picture of Bex checking out an Easter rabbit that he got from his Grandpa in LA!

Stepping Stone

We headed down south this morning to check out a children's museum in Norwalk. It is called Stepping Stone Children's Museum and although it was mighty pricey it was awesome. Topher didn't even hate it! Bex had a great time fishing, working with tools, baking a pie, and did some pretty great work with balls and water in the Energy Lab (note his fabulous blue lab coat in some of the pics). It is starting to feel like spring, despite the snowy forecast for tonight.

First Signs of Spring!!

We officially have the very first signs of spring. Notice that Bex is still bundled up because it is still cold BUT, we saw the first flowers popping out of the ground. Bex got so excited that he had to get down really low and smell them. Apparently these little buggers are called Croci!! Funny name- but I couldn't be happy to see them. I know that I shouldn't really complain when my family is in Alaska (although they did just get back from Maui) but it has felt like a long winter here in CT. March is supposed to enter like a lion and leave like a lamb- there hasn't been a lamb in sight!!

My boy

Bex is just about the best baby boy a mom could have...
