Lunch.. yum.

Saturday afternoon The Deaner’s invited some friends over for a BBQ, and they let us Holt’s stick around.

The Charest’s came over. Lil’ Tyler’s cheeks got some attention.

I brought some new beer from Brooklyn for everyone to try (*this blog does not advocate, or facilitate, under age drink. Online or in person).

Noah getting batting lessons.

Tyler getting driving lessons.

They boys yelling (roaring) at me.

After dinner, things got romantic on the couch while watching Handy Manny.

Thanks to The Deaner’s for hosting a BBQ, and letting us stay for it. Also big up The Charest’s for making the drive over to chill.

Noah spent a messy Saturday, being messy, making Easter cookies with his mom.

Chris’ Birthday

Last Saturday Noah and I went to City Ice Pavilion in Long Island City for Chris’ Birthday Party.

Chris and his friends.

I wore my special ice skating tights, to help me jump higher.

Miles brought some friends too.

Noah wasn’t into the skates at all, and it took a lot of coaxing. Our first go was pretty wobbly so we took a break and had some lunch.

With renewed strength, lil’ dude was a little more adventurous. Tim skated with him so I could get some flicks.

Cake time.

Patience.

After cake we went back to the rink and Noah, hopped up on sugar, kept pushing my hands away as I tried to skate with him. With my hands free, I couldn’t help but take some flicks with my phone…

…and a quick vid, before/as I got yelled at.

Happy Birthday Chris! Thanks for inviting us!

Last Monday Noah, Kate, and Nana T. went to the Central Park Zoo. I wasn’t there, so I can’t really give you captions, but here are the flicks that I stole from Kate’s phone.

Gross..

Also, good luck to Kate who starts a new job today!

Children’s Museuming

On Sunday we met up with Tim, Ladonna, Chris, and Miles at The Brooklyn Children’s Museum.

I was really into this steel drum, good thing no one takes photos of me.

Chris got hungry working at the travel agency, so he ordered pizza.

Not sure he ever got his pizza though, the crew working the pizza shop didn’t seem very reliable.

Chilling in the greenhouse.

Build-a-bug.

Miles found some treasure.

Chris wasn’t allowed into one section, it was for lil’ dudes only.

We didn’t last in the lil’ dude section very long though.

Thanks for coming out to Brooklyn kids!
