Saturday was a fantastic day! It was a beautiful, sunny day...I think in the high 60's/low 70's. After a chocolate chip pancake breakfast and Shelaghs dance class we went to the playground near us. The kids are like crazies being let out of an insane asylum right now. I might as well have had them in jail all winter b/c you let them into a playground now and they are all over the place...just so happy to be outside. Rory has now decided that since it is warmer out he will only wear Crocs handed down from his cousin ("Mommy, I want Jasons Red Crocs! I no like fuzzy Crocs. Just Jasons Crocs") and isn't into his jacket at all. He's loving his sunglasses this year (thankfully, b/c he has really fair eyes and gets extra sensitive to sun) and only wants his "Lellow" hat - which is actually beige but yellow is his favorite color and that's that.
After lunch and a quick nap we decided to take the kids into Boston. We put them in the stroller and walked along the Charles River looking at all the sailboats and the rowers in the water. There were tons of people out riding bikes and skating, picnicking, dogs, sunshine...just a perfect afternoon. We played on the beautiful playgrounds they built right there and then walked down Beacon St to Beacon Hill to sit at a cafe on Charles St and have coffee and "special hot" (hot chocolate). Shelagh pointed out that Joe's cappuccino was "just a fancy way of saying coffee". Thank you Fancy Nancy. He was properly humbled. We went to Annas Taqueria for burritos and quesadillas and then went home to watch the Muppet Movie and munch on popcorn.
I appreciate what a perfect day it was and look forward to many more this summer :)
