HIATUS NO MORE

It's been a while since we've blogged... don't worry, this is not the beginning of the end - life caught up to us for a couple weeks. We're back, and we've got a couple good entries in one. First thing's first - the myth, the man, the legend:

Good shot of his two toothes - and the one tooth on top you can't see!

In case you were unaware, Benjamin's Auntie Alicia is a renowned poet. Through her Learning Unlimited course at Salve Regina, she composed three poems, one of which was about Benjamin. So we went to watch her read her poems aloud. It may look like Alicia is crying.... because she is. She did very well, and we are VERY proud of her. (video of her reading the poem below).

The 3 Musketeers and Alicia's Learning Unlimited Companion, Rowan:

Today we took a trip to Boston to visit the New England Aquarium. Benjamin was mesmerized by the fish... A picture of our two little fishes:

Look out Benjamin, a SHARK!!!

Little Benjamin Fishes:

A GIANT Sea Turtle:

It was Da-da's War College Spring Break - and every other grade school student's in New England... it was packed!

Afterwards we stopped in the North End, where Benjamin actually found a meatball he couldn't finish... The two "meatballs" staring each other down before they face off. "You win this time giant meatball, but I'll be back".

And because it's been a few weeks since we blogged, Benjamin is now a full-time walker. Even this was a bout a week ago. This morning he was chasing Da-da in the front lawn. So much fun!
