Visitors from California

Gamma and step-grandfather (or as CJ liked to call them, "my Gamma" and "my John"), came to visit for two weekends in May.  We did lots of fun things, like planting mommy's new roses.

And going to swim lessons.

We also went to the Pennington street fair.

And to the Junior Showhouse.

CJ really liked the Memorial Day parade, just like last year.

We also had a BBQ with some friends.

And went canoeing down the Delaware-Raritan Canal by our house.

Easter 2012

Here are some highlights from Easter this year!  Click here to see the rest of the photos.

Confused about being told to find his Easter basket.

Okay, now he gets it!

Later that day, riding his big wheel at Ma-G's house.

Easter continues a couple days later...

Planted just in time for Spring, our new Weeping Cherry Blossom tree.

And our tulips, planted in January, lasted all Spring.

Dylan's B-day Party

CJ went to a birthday party for one of his daycare friends today.  The party was at The Little Gym.  Here is a video and a couple pictures.  We took a lot more videos, but mom's phone broke and this was the only one we happened to download before.

Not sure if CJ is checking out the horses or if the horses are checking out CJ in this picture! CJ really wanted to ride that little one on the left, but dad said those little horses are very mean.

The theme for the weekend was everyone had to have stickers!

Going for a walk in the snow.

Not a ton of snow but enough for a snow ball fight.

CJ's 2nd Birthday

CJ turned 2 this week! Since it was also Valentine's Day, we made nice Happy Birthday CJ / Happy Valentine's Day party favors and took them to CJ's school. The bags were stuffed with Valentine's Day notebooks, crayons, and stickers. And of course, there were cupcakes, all the way from NYC.

CJ wore his 2-year old shirt to school.

Back at home, and only because it was his birthday, mom let him get away with a handful of 6 lollipops at once!

Actually, here's what happened when mom suggested he have only 1 at a time.

Once daddy got home, it was time to open presents in the living room.

CJ got some new animals for his Little People zoo from mommy.

And some new clothes from the grandmas.

And a new pair of glow in the dark crocs from daddy.

And a national geographic book and memory game from Gamma.

And some cars from Gamma.

Grandpa came over later with a new remote control car.

And here he is modeling his new raincoat from Aunt Maggie and Uncle Matt.

CJ's B-day Celebration in NYC

Getting ready for the big trip into the city, CJ thought it would be fun to put on mommy's mascara. Didn't he do a good job?

Baby Shae came to CJ's birthday lunch with his parents Emily and Gil.

Mike, Kal, and Courtney came by too, on their way to Fashion Week festivities.

CJ was very excited about his cake with a car on it.

It seemed like all he really wanted to do for his birthday in the city was ride the bus! Easy enough...

But we forced him to go to the Children's Museum, where he ended up having a blast. Check out the pictures from the museum here.
