Spring was in the air!

This weekend really just dusted off the winter blues for Paul and I. We took the boys out early in the morning and stayed out ALL day. We started by going to the mall and stocking up on spring and summer sneakers (I love boys sneakers) and then we headed to a park in White Plains - it so nice to watch them in action at the Park. Anthony is a major magnet and all kids really take to him. He LOVES it and when someone stops following him he lets them know "uh-uh" and takes their hand to continue to play. Paulie likes to feel out the park on his own and then eventually finds a friend to hang out with. We had some fruit and snacked in the park
After that we went to City Island for some late lunch/dinner and the boys loved watching the birds and planes and boats go by and are starting to say arrs, oats & point to planes. We then went to another Bronx Park to play. This time Anthony saw some girls sitting under the slide and decided to turn on his charm and walked right over to them and waved hi and smiled big started taking a little babynese (baby/chinese combined). And all the girls were like aawwweeee - "you can come and play with us. Daddy gave Anthony his thumb up and badda bing! Anthony had a flock of girls following him (I think daddy's jealous).
paulie has a ball running all over the park - he's actually getting so quick I'm a little nervous I can't catch him anymore. But the good thing about him is that he won't go too far away from Mommy and Daddy - ever - well for now.
I'm starting to realize that every new moment doesn't last long and so I'm trying to suck up every last part of it - knowing something new is coming along and this will soon be memory. It feels like yesterday they had to hold my hand to walk.
