another garden fairy princess play
As all of our fans know Zoe has long been obsessed with playing dress-up. In fact, many of the clothes she wears are actually her dress-up clothes (though they might just look like strange outfit choices). We often end up putting on a "garden fairy princess play." We all have to put on costumes and Zoe directs us in the activities which usually involve growing a magical garden, eating pink cupcakes and chasing away dragons and witches (the dragons tend to walk away and the witches fly). If Jeff is home he is the handsome prince and of course us gals are garden fairy princesses! The fact that Lilia is becoming more and more involved in the plays is promising. I keep hoping that I won't have to wear a costume one of these days and can just be in the audience.

Chenery Park
We love going to restaurants as a family but we usually stick to sushi, Indian or something very, very casual (and loud as Lilia has some good pipes on her!). We had heard that this restaurant is very accommodating to kids/families. On their website they say that they "teach kids to eat in restaurants with Mom and Dad." We were anxious to check it out. When we got there it seemed really fancy/formal/white table cloth -not somewhere we'd usually be comfortable taking our kids and we considered leaving but knew it would be difficult to find another restaurant nearby. Much to our surprise we were seated in an area which was part of the main room yet separate enough that a little noise wasn't going to bother anyone. There were other kids and even a baby there! It was great -we all loved it and can't wait to go back!
