Happy mothers day! The birthday march of April and May continues; papa's birthday was last weekend. Mima and papa had retreated to a lovely island inn, but this weekend we got to come celebrate with them for mother's day brunch. The boys ate alarming numbers of chocolate chip pancakes while we had slightly more adult (and super tasty) fare courtesy of papa.Afterwards, of course it was time for a park adventure. The boys' current obsession is this one, and we've even already booked out the covered shelter location for Z's upcoming birthday party. The park's namesake rhododendrons have started to flower, and one of Z's favorite activities is to circle through the "forest" (sometimes he describes it as a tunnel) and spot the various colored bushes.
O for his part enjoys burying and digging up treasure in their giant sand beds (when other kids happen to bring or abandon shovels) and spinning dizzily (alternating between asking to be spun faster and slower) on a rotating playground disc. Today a bunch of the dandelions were in full fuzz mode, and he was picking them and making wishes. O: "I made a wish. I actually made lots of wishes. They were all about cars."L continues to enjoy morning and afternoon time to both interact with her family and get to check out her toys. We've been seeing increasingly frequent and successful partial rolls; here she made it from her back onto her side to say hi to some friendly stuffed animals:
