Here are a bunch of photos from the first half of May.

We went to the Westchester Children’s Museum on 5/1 at Rye Playland.  Only a few of the planned exhibits are open, but we stilll had a good time with this wind tunnel thing, the toddler “beach” play area below, and a build-your-own roller coaster area.

We also had fun with play-dough on some rainy days.  I was particularly impressed that Blaine seems to have picked up some knife skills from watching Andrew and me (video below).  I didn’t learn to hold the knife that way until we took a class when I was 30!

Our friendly neighborhood fishmonger at Fjord introduced Blaine and Sarah to this giant lobster named Larry.

We also spent a lot of time at the local playgrounds getting ready for the summer by spending all our time in the sandboxes.

Followed by lots of baths, of course.

Blaine and Sarah got these cute matching train conductors’ bandanas from Great Grand-Mom and Great Grand-Dad.  Thank you!

Blaine still loves to help in the kitchen – here he is rinsing the kale.

Lastly, here’s a video to document Sarah’s current love of green beans (just like her Daddy).
