may 1st - busy friday

Alex had to go to South Jersey for a checkup on his ears to make sure everything is going well with his ear tubes.  He and Daddy had a special adventure on the way home.  They rode the train back into the city...the one that goes over the Ben Franklin Bridge.  On the way over Alex insisted we "look for dolphins in the water."  When we got back Alex said, "thanks for taking me on the train daddy"...so damn cute.

We strolled through our neighborhood to kill some time before Alex's haircut on South Street.  Gemma picked flowers and Alex went to the candy shop.  We went out for a Mexican dinner on the way home and raised a little hell.  Gemma threw half of her quesadilla on the floor, dumped a glass of water on herself, and lost one year's stay in our house.  She's only one, but effectively losing privileges later in life for her misbehavior.
