fun at the train show

since jack & i have been cooped up in the house for 5 days, it was time to venture outdoors. that and he was way too excited to do the laundry yesterday...poor kid just needed a change of scenery!? we went to the train show at the bronx botanical garden. it was a lot of fun, and i think jack really enjoyed it...even if he spent most of the time talking (read yelling) at the ceiling fans!

he's still not feeling 100% and i am keeping a close eye on him because he has developed a little cough. with bronchitis going around, i'm hoping it will bypass us. he is still very clingy and will not let me out of sight, but i admittedly have taken advantage of all the extra snuggle time with him:) he's so independent most of the time, so it is a nice change. as long as it is a short-term phase...i can barely go take a shower without him freaking out!

below are a lot of pictures from the past few days;

our tree...still can't find a tree skirt i actually like so excuse its absence

he'll stay away for the most part, but every once in a while he tries to get away with it!

these pics were from this morning...you might ask "why is it so dark?" and i would reply "because it was 5:30 am!?"

i just like this one...it looks like he's raising his hand waiting to be called on!

his smile, makes me smile

no pictures, please!

here are a bunch below from the show...they're all different landmarks in nyc (boroughs included!)

yankee stadium...blech...

he was really having such a good time, even though it was freezing out!
