Catching up.

We've been a little lax in updating this blog lately. So here are the highlights of the last three months in random order.

All dressed for school with lunch bag. 
Helping daddy plant seeds for our summer garden. He had loads of fun dumping soil in the little containers.



Attempting to use the potty (of course, we can't sit on the potty without a mgazine, can we?)
At the Mid-Hudson Children's museum.



Eating breakfast - like a big boy.
It's story time for all my friends.


My all-time favorite activity - trying to write the letters of the alphabet.
Yay - warm weather is finally here. Now I can do fun things like play outside with water.


I'm growimg and mommy doesn't seem to realize that. I have to keep asking her (daily) to buy me some bigger shoes.

Sea World

The major hit of our trip was Sea World. Atchuthan loved it so much we ended up spending two full days there.

This is Day 1 when we mostly took in all the shows.






Atchuthan loved all the kiddie rides too.





And here is Part 2 at Sea World. The highlight of this was us getting to feed the dolphins. This allowed us to get really close to them and even touch them. Ats really loved throwing fish into their mouths.

Holiday lights and ICE!

The hotel we stayed in had a really cool atrium with Koi fish all over the place. They also had turtles and alligators. Here are some pictures of the atrium and their ICE! exhibit.



All the sculptures in the exhibit were made of ice. The exhibit was maintained at a COLD 9F. These sculptures were carved by artists that they brought in from Harbin, China. Very cool!

Florida!

We took a vacation to Orlando last week and had a blast. It was nice to get a break from the cold weather and do some fun stuff. I'm breaking it down to a few posts as we have tons of pictures. The first place we visited was Disney's Magic Kingdom for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. Here is a slide show of our evening there. Atchuthan LOVED meeting all the characters. He really enjoyed the little rides in there - his favorite was the Haunted Mansion. Unfortunately we didn't get any pictures in there as it was too dark - but he was not the least bit scared and was laughing all the way.



Here is a little clip of the fireworks.


Mickey and Minnie at the Christmas Parade.


Atchuthan fell asleep as we were making our way out of the park (it was midnight then) when we spotted Tigger and Piglet and mean mommy actually woke him up so he could meet them. It was totally worth it.




This was a really fun trip and we can't wait to go back when he's a little older and can enjoy Disney World more.
