Rowan is gearing up for an exciting spring. Being that he was only just sitting up this time last year he is ready to discover and enjoy the world. Here, at Lolly and Pop's house, he was exploring the yard and working on his ball skills - there's just so much to do!

Jill, Reese (4) and Ellis (2) flew in on the 17th for a week of winter fun in our new life up here in Ballston Spa. Mom came too for most of the week and Dad was here on the weekend. We managed to do quite a lot and have tons of fun - just the 8 of us!

Here we are at the Saratoga Childrens Museum in Saratoga Springs. It was perfectly kept, age appropriate for all three kids, which is hard to come by, and entertaining enough for us adults. Still, 2 hours is about all you can take!

The Fire Station - Reese loved wearing the gear but Rowan prefered to drive the truck.

The Post Office - Rowan must have mailed a million letters that day!
The Grocery Store - Ellis's favorite! I'm already planning on starting something similar in the basement for Rowan to play with - it was so much for them!
The Bank - why not learn to count with cold hard cash!The Northway Train - at this point we were all looking to head home!

Rowan enjoyed some Valentine's day breakfast at Coffee Planet in town. A nice lady gave him a cookie. Note his shirt.

I sit Rowan on the counter and give him a spatula to mix whatever I'm baking/cooking. The event turns out a little messy but I love having him help me anyway. So of course, I put an apron on him. I can't say Alan is too into this but I like to think of him as the next great chef. I've also discovered the use of the apron for spaghetti dinners - it totally saves the khaki's from ruin!
