Birthday, Act II

We headed to the Children's Museum after opening presents to enjoy a fun birthday morning. We've never visited before, and were so happy to use the membership that my parents bought us for S&Z's birthday! The museum is set along the Boston Harbor, and all of the outdoor space is really beautiful.


We started our visit off in the Arthur & Friends room on the 2nd floor. Right when you walk in this room there is a plane and cockpit.


One of the coolest things at the museum is the green screen room!!!



You can dance and play on a green screen stage, and see yourself on TV with Arthur!


I got a picture of myself taking a picture ;-)


In The Common area of the museum there was a music hour going on.


There was so much to see, so we continued on our way and headed to the Countdown to Kindergarten room.



Right when you enter this room there is a school bus! Zoe was in HEAVEN!!! The kids get to pick what neighborhood to "drive" through, and there is a life-like video that plays what it would look like out the windows. The bus even vibrates like it's driving!


The last stop on our birthday visit was Peep's World, which is aimed at letting kids "investigate, observe and discover the wonders of the world". For S&Z's intents and purposes, this room houses the largest, most amazing water table they've ever seen!!!


After an amazing morning spent exploring and playing, everyone was wet, tired and ready for some lunch...


We are very excited to spend more time at the Children's Museum in the months to come!

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

The Best of Project 366

2012 is coming to a close and I have officially completed Project 366 ! I managed to take and post and keep track of 365 photos out of 366 total days this year. I only missed one day and it was for a pretty good cause . Believe me, these pictures don't take themselves. I shot just under 7000 pictures this year. Once I got an iPhone in March all of the pictures were taken with my phone (~ 5500 pictures!). The camera on the iPhone is really good, I always have it with me, and I like playing around with the filters and other editing tools available in photography apps like Instagram, Camera+, Diptic, and Gridditor. Since I have put so much time, love and energy into Project 366 I thought I should select a few "Best Of's". I had a great time putting this together, and I hope you enjoy these highlights as well!

The Blog Book is Here!!!

My friend, Tom, told me about a website where you can order a bound copy of your blog. I've had it on my radar for awhile, but I finally just got around to making a book of the first year of entries. It starts with 'Icing on the Cake' , the last entry before they were born, and it ends with Halloween . It turned out better than I could have imagined! I cried when I opened it... One hundred ninety-four pages of love, photos, stories, and milestones!
