This and that

I'm so far behind in blogging that I don't know where to begin. I came across some old pictures of Ava;s preschool graduation and our first days at the beach club, I already miss that place so much looking at these pictures and boy, my babies have grown since May. Our life does not seem to be slowing down, instead it's more busy then ever. Ava went to a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese, we hosted Thanksgiving dinner and got stir crazy at home so we headed to the NY Hall of Science where we are members. Boy, these four days at home with both kids have taught me to PLAN! Plan something, anything but get out of the house or you will go crazy!!

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Our little guy loves all things transportation.  If it moves, it grabs his attention.  When we're driving and the el-train goes by us he yells, "Mommy train!"  "Choo-choo" and the train has an American flag on it so he has to point out the flag as well, he loves his flags.  Have I mentioned that we never leave home without some sort of American flag, it all started this summer at the beach club, it was cute at first but now it's starting to drive us nuts, especially when we're in a hurry and we have to hunt down his flag.  At the beach club we were also in the JFK flight path so we would see planes all day long, he would wait in anticipation for the next one to go by and never got tired of it. 

Every time we get to a destination he always asks to sit behind the wheel and most of the time the answer is no because we are usually in a hurry -- but we were visiting friends in Long Island a few weeks ago and before we went to leave he asked again so we obliged.  Seriously, it's the only time he will sit still.
