We went to the LARPD Breakfeast with bunny at the Robertson Community Center. The kids had a great time and much to my surprise, Abrianna is in love with the Easter bunny! She was just in awe and was so excited when she first saw the Easter bunny, in fact, I took her right after she ate breakfast to sit on his lap because she couldn't tear herself away! Massimo was excited, too...but that was a little more expected! Dante - much like I expected - was afraid and would only get close if in my arms!
Massimo had his annual "crazy hat" day St. Patrick's Day parade at the Ark. This time it landed on a non-school day but we still went and took brother and sister with us. You can see brother wanted to be seated right next to big brother at the big kids table at snack time! Dante follows Massimo and calls him whenever we are at his school...he is fascinated by his "school-life". They walked to the nearest shopping center to show off their hats and wish a Happy St. Patty's to all the people there. Of course all the kids thought they needed a bag because they would get treats, right...not this time kids! They did find pots of gold at school when they got back after the leprechauns terrorized the classrooms! It was a beautiful warm, sunny day!
Fun at the SF Aquarium by the Bay
We took a trip to the SF Aquarium by the Bay today to satisfy Massimo's constant wish to "see the ocean and fishies". At the end of the day we asked Massimo if he had fun (yes, of course he says) and his most favorite thing was the...scuba diver! Yes, that's all he talked about when we asked him what he saw. Of course when we jogged his memory and talked about the fish and what we did he enjoyed "finding Nemo" (one of his favorite movies - and where the fascination of scuba divers all started...don't be surprised if that's what he ends up being for Halloween!) and touching the Stingray and sharks...and outside of the aquarium he got to see trains (Bart), trolleys, buses, and of course the ocean! It was all very exciting for him to be in a big city like that with so much variety around him...so many things to see. The twins loved it, too. Abrianna got to interact a lot more since she is walking and more able, it was a little hard to let Dante crawl so he got to snack and check it all out from stroller view. He did get out at the end in the toddler area and got to touch the sea urchins and he loved that so much! He got really excited watching all the fish swim by. It was a fun day (and tiring chasing after at least 2 and sometimes 3).
Massimo and Dante were all about the balloons...they wanted their swords to wave at each other...Massimo even had a holster for his sword.
