Port Discovery

We purchased a membership to the children's museum in Baltimore called Port Discovery. We love this place. So many fun places to go. Plus with our membership, we can get friends in for free! Hooray! One of the reasons I like it so much is because there's a room with tons of age appropriate activities for BOTH kids and the door stays closed so I can let them explore and play and not worry about them running off. (Who am I kidding - Emily wouldn't run off. Ethan's the one I chase around! haha)
Art projects
 
 My little monkey boy!
 
They have a play-diner! Huge kitchen where they can prepare all sorts of (fake) food
 
Ethan serves daddy a steak!

Long time no post! I'm sorry it has been so long - April has been a crazy month for us! Between being sick (3 of us had the flu, Emily had a stomach virus that landed her in the ER, and Emily and Ethan both caught hand/foot/mouth disease) and visitors (first my parents, then Chris' mom, then Chris' dad and my friend Katie) we've been very busy! Oh - and I was in a wedding too! I have lots of photos to update - so they'll be here soon! :)

Emily Ballet

Here are a few photos from Emily's ballet class this term. We have a couple days off and then we're starting up with the next session!

Roller Skating!

We went rollerskating the other day! Mondays is "toddler" day at the local roller skating rink. They let you bring in push toys and trikes and have fun! It was pajama day, so the kids had a lot of fun in their jammies.

Emily tried the roller skates!








Doing the hokey pokey!




They had these cool things to help the younger kids learn!


This little man had his first taste of popcorn! haha. He's a fan. Just like his mama ;)




2 videos of Emily attempting to rollerskate!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

I found this awesome art project on pinterest! Emily loved it and the final project was pretty impressive for a 3 year old ;)


Final product


My friend and I went to a concert in Baltimore, and Chris watched all three kids on his own! He fed them dinner and put them all to bed! Can we say super-daddy?!?!


We also recently celebrated Chris' birthday! We spent Saturday singing happy birthday and eating cake and opening presents. Saturday evening Chris and I went out for steak!


Em insisted on helping him blow out the candles.


Happy boy loves his cake!
