The Children's Museum

Last week my playgroup took a field trip to the Boston Children's Museum. We hung out in "Playspace", a section of the museum that is only for babies. We had a blast!

Here are some pictures of me and my friends:

Hello, handsome baby!



Mom, that baby in the mirror keeps looking at me.



Hey, where did you come from?


Max (aka Stinky) and me "sharing" toys.


I see the camera, please wait while I strike a pose.


Dude, that's hilarious!


All that playing made me a little tired. Hence, the nice dazed expression.


I enjoyed the rest of the museum from the comfort of my stroller. I can't wait to go back when I am a little bit older so I can run all over the place.

Ben's very busy schedule

To my faithful blog readers: I apologize for my lack of updates recently but I have been very busy! I was a little bit under the weather after my trip to NY. (I did get to see my Uncle Mike while we were there and he makes me laugh a lot. That was the only fun part of the trip!) After a few days of rest, chocolate milk and Wonder Pets I felt much better. It was a good thing that I was well again because I've had a lot going on recently.

My playgroup had a big party at Zachary's house. We were celebrating everyone turning one! I think all the babies were envious of my super cool sunscreen mohawk. (Mommy just can't bring herself to give me a haircut because I am so stylin').





I helped Uncle Andy with his move by keeping an eye on some of his stuff while he was in transition. I thought his computer looked hungry, so I tried to feed it a graham cracker.




I took my first trip to the zoo! It was so much fun because I love animals. The petting zoo part was closed because of the hot weather and I was a little disappointed because I like to see the animals close up. I was able to pet a zebu and I thought it was hilarious! My favorite animals to look at were the llamas, the porcupines and the jaguar cubs.





Since I like to share, I shared some germs with Daddy and got him sick. I kept him company on the couch (and held the TV remote for him) while he got better.



I did a brief stint in baby jail.



When I got out, I celebrated my freedom by going to the beach! I spent a lot of time in the water, trying to drink it. We don't have any photographic evidence of this because Mommy wasn't coordinated enough to hold on to me and the camera at the same time.
I've never experienced quite this much sand before. I really didn't know if I should be grossed out or try to eat it. I definitely didn't like my knees touching the sand, at least until I determine how I feel about it. I stuck to the crab walk.




Okay, I guess the sand isn't so bad. MAYBE I'll try crawling just for a minute. I am liking this beach thing.



Can you believe this summer is almost over?

I (Don't) Love New York

Please don't ask my parents if we had fun in New York last weekend. I can't tell you what their answer will be but here's a hint: this is my "happy" picture.


Edited to add: For all you inquiring minds who want to know, I was very unhappy during our trip to New York because I wan't feeling well and I was exhausted from the car and train rides. I also missed my crib a lot because I don't like sleeping in new places. I felt much better when we got home and everything was back to normal.
