It's been a really busy week so far! Ben is on spring break which means...lots of family time! We have been to museums, rode the bus for the first time (I know...only took 3 1/2 years and I definitely wouldn't recommended it for someone recovering from a serious back injury), have taken walks, rested, and today went to the zoo. Here are a few things I have learned this week:
Zakkai's new favorite word? NO
Taking the bus/train is a WHOLE lot cheaper than parking in chi-town (unless you get a meter)
I can push a cart for a little bit now! Whoo-hoo! But there can only be one child under 30lbs in it and it can only hold a few groceries. It's a start!
While the boys may really like dinosaurs, never take them to exhibits with life-like, moving, roaring dinosaurs...
Classical music makes the boy's bedtime a whole new (and happy) world!
9 children ages 3 1/2 and under can make a huge mess of your home in a very short amount of time! (don't worry, I love it!)
A piece of banana bread is NOT like a muffin apparently
3 1/2 year olds are REALLY smart and do not forget anything that you promised them
You are never too old to enjoy the zoo but it definitely is more enjoyable with children!
Tomorrow's outing? Riding downtown on the train and walking down the Magnificant Mile and more importantly, visiting the Lego Store!! Pictures coming soon...
