My Little Man

Finally!!! Nice weather!!! It was such a beautiful day out today. The first day it really felt like maybe the winter is behind us (fingers crossed). Jack and I spent some time outside and I discovered the key to getting Jack to take pictures is to make sure to do it while Will is napping. I can't resist that little smile...I just want to eat him up. Here are a few from today....

Krazy for Kuerig

We just recently bought a Keurig coffee maker and I can't keep Jack away from it. The second he sees us turn the machine on, he immediately drags a chair over to the counter, climbs up and yells until we let him make a cup of coffee. It amazes me that he has figured out exactly how to use the machine and could pretty much make a cup of coffee all on his own. Here is a video of Jack working on his barista skills.....

Disney Here We Come!

Hi everyone...not sure if anyone is still out there checking the blog. I've been a bit delinquent with my posts but have been trying to get back in the swing of things. It's been a long and cold winter so we've been stuck indoors way too much which is no fun. But now that things are warming up, we will hopefully be out and about a lot more, with more things to report back on.

We just got back from a trip to Disney World with the boys so I wanted to share some pictures from our trip!

Day 1 of the vacation was a washout. Fortunately, we had a 2 bedroom condo so being stuck in the room wasn't all so bad.
We watched some movies to pass the time....
And when they got tired of the movies, running around in their underwear seemed keep everyone occupied.
We were able to get out for a little in between the storms so we went to Downtown Disney to walk around. And of course, the first thing we see when we get out of the car....the T-Rex store. Will was in his glory when he saw the store and we spent a good 30 minutes walking around and touching every dinosaur in the store. Of course we didn't make it out of the store without a dinosaur purchase.
Fortunately, by day 2, the rain was gone and the sun came out. We went to Animal Kingdom which turned out to be a disaster due to the crowds. But we did manage to see Mickey and a few other characters before calling it a day.
Hmmm...what can I do to Donald's hat?

Come day 3 we were ready to just sit by the pool and relax (not that we were really doing too much relaxing chasing after these too).



Watch me jump mommy!


And me, Mommy!









Later than night we visited family friends who live in Orlando. The boys had a blast playing together.
We had lots of funny playing outside and walking around downtown Disney.



And also got to enjoy some evening entertainment...
We got to spend some time with another friend who lives in Florida and his son. It was great to catch up and let the boys play since they had not seen each other since we left CT.
Will and Justin entertained themselves the entire two days they were together and had so much fun playing in the pool.



And could have spent hours throwing sand into the water and talking to each other about who knows what.




We went to the character breakfast at Chef Mickey's which was so much fun. Will and Jack got to meet Mickey and all his friends. Jack wasn't too keen on having the characters anywhere near him.....
...but Will loved every minute of it!


Will thought Goofy was hysterical and Goofy was loving Will.


Goofy kept coming back for more....three times he circled back to our table to play around with Will.


And Will even got Goofy to climb under the table with him!


Our last night, we just hung out at the hotel and had a picnic dinner by the water. Overall we had a great trip and were sad to leave the Florida and the beautiful weather.
