Girl Scouts visit The Boston Globe

I love the newspaper. The ritual of it arriving on my walkway each morning, scanning the front page, the kids reading the comics and sports, the days when you can sit and read the entire edition cover to cover, it's such a small delight. Planning a Girl Scout field trip to The Boston Globe is a dream come true. And it did not disappoint! We saw the plant where the paper is printed, a newsroom and all the details that go into producing a world class paper each day. 

Laser focus

Laser tag at Bijan and Luca's birthday. He really loved it!

100 Laps

In motion. This little guy was determined and did it. He ran 100 laps around the inside of the house. Maddie could hardly stand it and tried to jump in at around 30 laps in order to catch up to him. Luckily that didn't hurt his focus!

BC V Army

A fun Sunday at the hockey rink watching BC cream Army 11-0.

Gabrielisms

"Look Mama, I'm growing a beard." I feel the side of his chin and nod. He's assured that he's growing whiskers and so convicted that he convinces Theo that he, too, is sprouting fuzz. When I get him up the following morning, he bounces out of bed and says, "I'm so excited to go to school and tell the teachers and my friends about my beard."

"Mama, when I grow up I'm going to buy you a baby. The baby will be named Dina or Pinky." He wouldn't say if it's a boy or girl.

Selfies

Someone is obsessed. I find these on my phone all the time! They really make me laugh.

Girl Scout Field Trip to the Zoo

A fun Monday adventure to the zoo where we learned about animal habitats for the animal badge.
