A day at the park!






















Last weekend Daddy took Jack back to RI for the weekend while I worked. It was my first overnight away from him. Even though I was very tired from work, it was still hard to be in our little apartment without my 2 favorite boys. It was so quiet. I did get a good night sleep, but I missed my boys A LOT! While in RI they went to Jack's first birthday party-for baby Michael. I hear he was passed around and around and was able to see his cousins and be loved on by all sorts of family! It was a little overwhelming for Jack to be around SO many people, so they only stayed for a little while :). Daddy and Jack then spent Easter with Gramma and Big Papi too. It was a fun weekend for them. Jack got to show off with eating his "solids" and the Easter Bunny brought him some very fun little toys too! I was SOOO happy to see them both on Sunday night when I got out of work. :)

On Friday Jack and I drove up to Bellingham, MA and had a play date with Jill and Nick. It was a beautiful day so we had lunch at a park near their house and then took the boys for a walk. It was a fun day of chatting and playing.....the one down side-I left my stroller in Jill's car. :(
Something I realized when I woke up Saturday morning. After a quick call we made plans to see each other soon so she could return it to me. I AM LOST WITH OUT IT! I use that thing EVERYDAY!! Oh well....i will make due this weekend :)

Since the warm weather has FINALLY come to NE, we decided to take advantage! Today we packed up Jack and a picnic lunch and headed to Wickham Park in Manchester. It was a beautiful day and the first day that Jack was out enjoying the sunshine (other than being in his stroller for walks). We set up a blanket with some of his toys and let him play. Daddy and I enjoyed a nice lunch and soaked up the sunshine too. Jack felt the grass on his bare feet for the first time. Not quite sure what he thinks of it. :) There was a guy at the park with a personal parasail-thing. It was a huge "kite" attached to a little seat, attached to him. We watched him for about an hour trying to "take flight". It was pretty funny, but exciting when he did briefly leave the ground. All the fresh air and sunshine tired Jack out and he took a great nap when we got home (so did Mommy:) ). This is the first weekend in a while that we all have been home with no plans. It has been so nice to just hang out and relax at home!
