Day on the Common

Chris was away so we spent this beautiful day on the Boston Common with our friend Maddie (and my friends Lisa and Kara!). We visited the duck statues from the Make Way for Ducklings book, played some golf and had a yummy lunch. We went home for a quick nap then over to Faneuil Hall for their Christmas tree lighting. We finished our night with Toy Story....because I was exhausted!

Children's Museum with the Barons

We had another play date with the Barons, but this time it was at the Children's Museum. The kids had a great time and the morning started off rainy so we had the whole place to ourselves!

Go Celtics!

I found an old Celtics outfit of Rich's that Angela fit into today. GO CELTICS!! We talked about how she was a "cheer" as Rich put it. Not sure why he kept missing the "leader" part. Chris said she isn't going to be cheerleader, but the first female Celtics player.

Chuck E Cheese

Since I had been away and it rained all day Saturday (and the parks and grass was still so wet), we decided to hit Chuck E Cheese for something fun to do. AHHHHHH!!!!! What a horrible place. I mean Richie had a great time, but it is just so obnoxious. There are kids running all around, it is so loud and the food is awful. HOPEFULLY he won't ask to go back because I don't think Chris and I could handle it. WARNING: stay away from Chuck E Cheese!

Family movie night

We decided to have our first family movie night. We got into our pajamas, popped pop corn and rented Happy Feet. It was mostly a hit although a whole movie is still a little long for Richie to pay attention for. He got up and played a few times, but watched a good portion of it. I think we will be do it again soon. Especially with all of the good holiday films.

Bringing Grandma back up north!

Mom, Angela and I flew down to Florida to bring Grandma back up north! We are so excited to have her close again. It was a very hard trip and I think it will take a while for her to adjust, but it is done so we can move forward now. Can't wait to visit her in New York!

Bye bye 5607 Marble Street and Florida!

Bruins tickets

Since we live so close to the Garden we figured it was time we bought tickets to the Bruins. So we got a 10 game pack and have been to 3 games already. Our seats are great and Richie absolutely loves it. Everyone around us is AMAZED at how he can just sit there and watch the whole game at 2 1/2 years old. He gets to the arena and falls into a trance. He LOVES HOCKEY!!

Aunt Erin babysat so the 3 of us got to go together this night.

Richie was lucky enough to get ANOTHER hockey stick. This one is now his favorite.

And the best game was the one he got to go to with his cousin!
