GUITAR!!!

Simon is really enjoying our music classes and has recently become obsessed with guitars. Everything is a guitar, the TV remote, the telephone, and of course our Wii Guitar Hero controller.

This past Saturday, I found the perfect guitar for Simon, a ukulele.

Here is Simon showing off his skills!

The Sprinklers are ON!

At (almost) 19 months, Simon is really starting to enjoy the sprinklers at the playground. Today he even decided to go in fully clothed to get a drink. Here are some pictures and a short video of Simon's refreshing morning.

Ready for the Summer

Simon is getting ready for summer. He is starting to enjoy the sprinklers at the park - or at least the puddles they create.

Here he is cooling off "Simon Style."

18 Months is "Awesome"

Last week we visited Grandma and Grandpa in Harrisburg. Simon had an especially great time as he turned 18 months. We marked the occasion with cupcakes. And Grandma and Grandpa gave Simon a tricycle. He rode it as often as he could (literally from sunup till sundown). We also enjoyed an afternoon at Hershey Park.

In Simon's words, it was "awesome!"

Simon's Buddy

We recently went to the zoo with Simon's buddy, Noah (and Noah's mom). It was a blast. The boys loved watching the monkeys - and the monkey's loved watching them.



The visit must have made an impression on Simon because when we got home, he had lots to say...



I am pretty sure that "No-ah" has become one of Simon's favorite words because it includes Simon's other favorite word "NO."

Sorry we've been away for so long!

Has it really been a month since my last post?! Sorry folks! These beautiful spring days have meant less indoor time and less blogging.

What's happened in the last month...

We've spent a lot of time at Prospect Park. Both at the park...


And on the playground.


We had a visit from Grandma and Grandpa.


We celebrated Passover and Easter...


We celebrated mommy's 33rd birthday with delicious treats.


And even went to the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens.

It's been a busy month!

Cleaning Up at the Park

Simon and I enjoyed a walk through Prospect Park today. On our walk, Simon had the idea that he should help cleanup. Along the way he spotted all sorts of interesting items - broken sticks, dead leaves and acorns and carried them to the trashcans. We found 8 trashcans and into each one he added a new little item. It was an interesting afternoon.
