Life as we Noah it: Spring Break

Brians spring break was from March 23-March 31st, we didnt want to go on any sort of vacation yet since we thought Noah was still a little young and the way the weather has been lately if school had any snow days or weather days the district would have taken away some of his spring break days so we were nervous to plan anything. We figured we would do some day trips and some play dates to make it a special week. Here is what we did:

Saturday- Brian, my dad and i took Noah to Storybrook Land. It was opening day and it was surprisingly not crowded at all! We had the whole run of the place! Everything was going great until Noah decided to take a faceplant on the asphalt. It was our first real injury and it was BAD. Blood everywhere, huge swollen lip. He cried initially but after a few minutes he let us hold ice onto it and let apply pressure to stop the bleeding.

Sunday: We hosted a play date for 6 kids ages 2 and under. We decorated Easter eggs (foam eggs, real eggs, plastic eggs, with stickers or crayons). All the kids seemed to have a great time!

Monday: We took this as a recovery day!

Tuesday: We went to a play date over at Jackies house

Wednesday- We went with the Mullers out to Philly to the Please Touch Museum. It was our first time there and although crowded (to be expected) we really liked it. Noah LOVED it but was a little cranky at times since we pushed nap time in hopes he would sleep in the car on the ride home (he did). His favorite part was the pretend grocery store. It will be great when he is a little older where he might not need a nap in the middle of the day, and when he can listen a little better

Thursday: We did another recovery day. He was SUPER cranky

Friday- We took Noah to the park

Saturday- I dont have any pictures but we took him to the Popcorn Park Zoo. It was really nice out and he liked looking at all the animals. He especially liked the "Ahh Ahh's: (he calls monkeys Ahh Ahhs, i think because we always do sounds and the monkeys go "Ohh Ohh Ahh Ahh)

Sunday- EASTER! We spend the morning at home. We did a little egg hunt in the living room. Each egg had a yogurt melt in them, He loved shaking the egg to find the prize and one big egg had a chocolate munchkin. After nap we went over to the Stines house for dinner and they did another egg hunt in the front yard
