Happy Birthday Daddy!

The Rosenzweig's had a wonderful long weekend. On Friday, we stocked up on delicious food and Mom and Charlie put on a fabulous birthday celebration for Daddy with great presents, tasty food and time with family that was so special. We took Charlie to the park on Christmas Day and he had fun on the swings and slide (most of the time). Later on, we enjoyed a holiday celebration with our neighbors and Charlie and Jack played with all of Jack's new toys. On Sunday, we had a big snow storm, but Charlie still demanded to go outside, in his protected stroller of course. We travelled to our favorite lunch spot in Brooklyn Heights and did some post-holiday shopping on Smith Street. We spent the afternoon watching football. It was a terrific way to turn 33!

'Tis the Season

Charlie is having such a great holiday season. On Saturday, we went out to Long Island for Hanukkah Part 2 with the Rosenzweig's and to see the Agresti Family. We had a tasty Chili lunch with Jon, Jeanie and Andrew and then the boys tore and the house playing with one another. We spent the evening with our wonderful family celebrating Hanukkah and Dad's birthday. Charlie played for so long he slept almost all day Sunday, although he did find a free moment for brunch with Mom, Melissa and Hayley. Charlie is growing so fast they couldn't believe how big he was. Now if he would just walk!!!

Playtime

Charlie was a social butterfly this weekend playing with 3 of his bests friends. On Saturday, Charlie saw his daycare buddy Jacob and spent a wonderful afternoon playing at his home. It was so much fun to see the boys hanging out together. Later that day, we met up by chance with Charlie's friend Graeme for a quick visit at a favorite local watering hole. On Sunday, Charlie had a play date with Jude, one of his oldest friends. Even though they hadn't seen each other in a while, they played together so nicely it was like they never were apart. While Charlie had a great weekend, Mom and Dad both caught a stomach bug towards then end which was no fun. The joys of raising kids!!!

Happy Birthday Seth & Evan

During the week, Charlie celebrated his first Hanukkah with Mom and Dad. Charlie loved opening his gift and lighting the Menorah. Over the weekend, we travelled to Pennsylvania for Seth and Evan's Birthday Party. Seth turned 1 and Evan turned 3 and they hosted a wonderful party which featured tumbling, a bouncer and plenty of pizza and cake. Charlie had such a great time. Evan and Seth loved all their presents, especially the drum set bought by Grandma Susan. Evan is growing up to be quite the musician!!
