Spring break!

We had a fabulous spring break. I can't believe how quickly it's gone! I'm going to work from today backwards, because I think it might be easier to remember each day. We fit a lot in!
Today we went to City Treehouse. It's one of our favorite play spaces. There's a treehouse that the kids can run around in and slide down.

The water table! 

Bryce loved the slide!

During the day on Friday we went to the playground with Chris' best girl friend: Abigail, and best boy friend: Luke (these are his labels : ). It was gorgeous outside. We were probably out there four hours. We even had a picnic!

We went to one of our favorite pizza places last night, Patsy's. The boys were fans.

Bryce and I liked it too!

On Thursday morning we went to the diner down the street for silver dollar pancakes. Here's Chris' serious face. 

Pancakes were my bribe for what was about to happen. Chris has had a broken blood vessel on his face since he was about 2. It's progressively gotten larger, and we were told it would never go away. We decided now was a good time to get it removed. They were able to laser it off, but ask Chris, it didn't feel very good. Bryce had the same one growing in the exact same spot as Chris (they are like twins, born 3 years apart!), so I decided to get that one taken off too. I learned the second time around, and stuck a lollipop in his mouth the second they did the laser. Bryce didn't even notice any pain, he was so excited about the sugar!

Our bribe afterwards was Johnny Rockets with Dad by his work. So fun!

On Tuesday Chris and his friend Asher, and Bryce and his friend, Noah,  went to the transit museum.  We rode the subway there, which may have been the best part for these guys. Asher may like trains just as much as Chris, which is a lot. His favorite Yankee player is the same. They were meant to be BFF's!

They loved the turnstile exhibit in the museum. They had turnstiles from all of the different decades.  

 We stumbled upon a show about Grand Central. I was thinking it was going to be a movie. No, it was this amazing singing/dancing production celebrating Grand Central's 100th birthday. We all learned so much, and it held the boy's attention the whole time.

The downstairs has all of the different trains from different years. The kids ran from one to another to another. 

Bryce taking a little break. 

They also have real buses that can be "driven". We left the driving up to the almost two year olds!

While we were at the transit museum, Aunt Buggy was having a baby! We were underground, and when we came back above we got a text saying she had just had baby Layla! We were over the moon! She is so precious, and we can't wait to meet her in person!

Okay, last day! On Monday we went to Pie face. This is a new restaurant that makes everything in pie form. If you know me, you know this was my choice for the restaurant. I love pie! We had different types of savory pies, and then we split a chocolate pie. Bryce ate every bit of his bbq pie, and then woke up from his nap saying, "I want Bobby". Delicious!

Here's us at the Museum of Math. We love this place! 

Chris' creation!



We had an amazing spring break! Thanks for sharing ALL of the details with us. I promise a shorter post next time!
