We spent a weekend visiting Aunt Margot in DC. And while the New Jersey DOT did us no favors on the 7-hour trips there and back, we nonetheless had a fabulous time and really enjoyed ourselves.
To our surprise, Margot was instantly his best friend even though he hasn't seen her since January. I guess he's old enough to remember the good times of 6 months ago. (And being a dog owner doesn't hurt.) She sought out some select playgrounds before the king's arrival, so we visited a couple of them that were great for the outrageously hot weather: one totally shade-covered and another one with a gigantic sandpit, hundreds of toys, and a whole separate sprinkler wing. Hello, affluent neighborhood!
Another highlight of Sasha's trip was the bathtub. Understandably. It's green and has an open drain hole that comes with things to stick in it.
Only 19 months old and driving a stick shift; he may get his driver's license before his Mama.
On our last day, their aunt/nephew bond was solidified by a high energy dance to the tune of Outkast's "Polaroid Picture," where Margot taught him to "shake, shake, shake, shake, shake." Joyous.
And there's more to come in DE! Can't wait.
ReplyDeleteAw, i miss him so much!!! (and you guys too). My favorite part about the bathtub photo is that the hat he is wearing belongs to Brea! I cannot wait to see how much taller he gets.
ReplyDeleteThat hat was perfect for him! And the look on his face driving the "car", stick shift and all, priceless--I'll have to get a print of that one. One cannot be or stay in a bad mood looking at that GLEE emanating from every pore of his body!! Is DE Delaware? Are you all vacationing at the seashore this summer? Nice.
ReplyDeleteLooks like he had so much fun!!! Yay for Aunt Margot!! LOVE that pic in the tub with the hat and the devilish grin :) So jealous of the Rosen summer trip to Delaware----very tempted to just show up and join in on the fun!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Carrie, you should! You'd have plenty of people willing to hold and take care of Junior Pants!!! OR are they going before he's born?
ReplyDeleteI love the little "paper boy" hat on him. It makes him look so CUTE. Well, actually he's cute without the hat!! He looks like he had a great time with Aunt Margo. He's got so many people in his life that love him. That's so great! Would love to have seen a video of Sasha and Margot dancing.
ReplyDeleteYes, that's what it is--a paper boy cap!! He is so precious. hugs and kisses to the little guy.
ReplyDeleteAnother vote for the hat and the excitment from the tub. I would love to see the Outkast dance too. Sasha looks like a Margot mirror.
