Toothpick City!

Making the Eiffel Tower out of toothpicks!

some of the other structures already done

HUGE PLAY AREA!



This sucker was HUGE! It had this ball area to shoot balls. Andrew loved that part, Jonathan did not. He was scared with all the noise. In fact he wasn't a fan of it at all except the very fast scared the hell out of me curly slide. I took him down the second time and as soon as we went in the tunnel to go down, he had a huge smile on his face!! Darning little thing

The Heart

ALl right mom get me out of this Ventricle
I rather run around it!
Andrew on the other hand I couldn't get him out of. He thought it was a cool hiding place and to scare people

Crazy Idea....



I felt the need to go somewhere. Mainly because its my sprig break so I don't have to do much this week. So we went to Syracuse to go to the MOST center. Its their Science Center. There was one thing I forgot to anticipate......today they celebrated St Patty's Day with a HUGE parade and the drunken stupor fest on the next street over.

Hmmm Something about me and that Number....


No I did not get this "jersey" because of the Number on it. Its kind of funny..most of the sports shirts Jonathan has worn have been this number and not my choosing it. Seriously I have not purposely picked out clothes with this number. For those that don't know, my all time favorite hockey player for the Buffalo Sabres wore that number and no he's not the one currently wearing it (although I think he's pretty cool too)

Where Will he Fit????


Yes he climbed into the basket on the stroller and then got stuck!! Silly Jonathan I never know where I'm going to find him

Visit to the Library

Oh books....He would turn the pages and do his best baby babble. Very cute! He's quite the talker. Watch out world when he can actually talk.


Its been so nice I've taken walks the last few days to get some exercise and fresh air. Jonathan and I walked to the library. He had fun checking out all the stuff there!

Playing Outside

It was in the high 50's today so we spent sometime enjoying the outdoors which Jonathan LOVES. He's climbing UP and DOWN the back steps

Double Trouble




It was Orion's Birthday so we went to their house for his first birthday! They sort of played together....more like got into to things together

I want to be Big too!!

I gave Andrew French toast sticks for breakfast and Jonathan joined him

There was a pile of dirty clothes and it was just right to climb and help himself to Andrew's food!!

More Fun at Strong

Getting along with other kids....Before he started his flipping over this sides of this maze
Wheee! Down the slide!!
were there are video games there's Andrew!! Lego Batman on Wii I think!

You know those experiments with babies and depth perception with the plexiglass and seeing if they would go further if it looked like there was a drop?? Well it was funny to watch him the first time doing this as he really though there was a drop and tried to climb in I showed him you COULD walk acrossed it and he was scared. Still a little scared in this photo but would at least walk acrossed it. He kept coming back to it as it fascinated yet frightened him!

Lego Castles




One of their new exhibits! Andrew loved it as it reminded him of Lego Star Wars...one of his favor games. Jonathan liked it too!

Strong National Museum of Play

Kalieda Jonathan you walked through a human kaliedascope and this is what you get!!
It was alot of fun for Jonathan this time as he could do some much more!

More Activities at the College





Experience Genesee its called and its to check out what the school has to offer. I would have stayed longer but Jonathan was TOTALLY past his nap time and was DONE!!!

Another Cool Kids!




Another Cool Kids ...this time it was yo yo blast and Jonathan wasn't going to sit still so we walked around as they were also doing fun events there. That's why there were balloons he was playing with. He was so funny that others from the event were taking pictures of him having a blast!

New Car Seat!


We had a malfunction with the other as it wouldn't stay buckled and Jonathan knew this and would try to make his escape....sorry buddy you aren't going anywhere now!! Although by the end of the day he christened it by throwing up on it...

By the way Happy Birthday Daddy

Jonathan on the baby Obstacle course

He finds his own way to make the baby obstacle course more exciting!
