happy (belated) father's day!

we had a really nice day. we headed to the maritime aquarium in norwalk, ct. packed a picnic lunch and ate by the water.

this day, of course, would not have been possible without my amazing husband. mike is a truly awesome father, and both jack and i could not be luckier to have him! he and jack are such buddies these days, and it is so cute to watch their relationship grow. happy father's day mike!! we love you:)

the frog exhibit was awesome!


i think was jack's favorite part--we spent at least 5 minutes just watching this enormous turtle!


blurry, but you can see his excitement during the seals' feeding



i just love this reaction from mike...he and jack both had these awe-struck looks a lot:)


he was tentative about crawling into the hippo at first, but then we had to bribe him to come back out!

I always knew Mike would be a great father, he always had a kind heart! Jack is very lucky to have you both!

I am soo....happy that Mike had a wonderful Father's Day. He deserves it. I love to see him and Jack walking side by side.

Jack is definitely all boy, I like the way he touches things without being grossed out.
Mike I know I wished you a Happy Father's Day, but I hope you will be as happy everyday as you were on Sunday.
We love you guys like crazy cakes.
Can't wait to see you.
Love,
