First Wedding and First Father's Day

What a weekend we had. Sasha went to his first wedding and we celebrated Father's Day. Our dear friends Suzy and Jason had a lovely wedding on Saturday in Garrison New York. I was so nervous to bring Sasha for fear that he would cry during the ceremony. I didn't want to disrupt the wedding, but the bride and groom really wanted our little guy to attend. Sasha is not really a big crier, but I thought the wedding might be a bit over stimulating. 

As an urban baby and more prone to long walks in the stroller and baby bjorn carrier Sasha is not accustomed to car rides. However when we do get in the car he sleeps like a champ. (Grandfather Bob can attest to this after a three and a half hour nap en route to Connecticut over Memorial Day weekend  - both directions.) After a sleepy ride we got to the hotel, fed Sasha then dressed him (see below) in these dapper summer time duds. Upon arriving to the outdoor wedding he slept peacefully in our alternating arms throughout the ceremony and cocktail hour. Then as soon as the music started he was wide eyed and immediately the life of the party. He was showing off his smile and charming all the guests. We had a family dance to "Fools Rush In" (our wedding first dance) and were so proud of our very well behaved baby who made it until the near end of the wedding with nothing but smiles.

The next day was Ari's first Father's Day, which was wonderful of course. I put this little sign "Happy "eh" Father's Day" on Sasha then woke up Ari. For someone who was never a morning person, Ari is now bright eyed and bushy tailed when Sasha throws on the morning charm. In case your wonderfing Sasha says the sound "eh eh eh" all night long in his sleep. Perhaps the joke is only funny to his parents:)

After we returned to Brooklyn we took Sasha for a nice long walk in the park and to a street fair on 7th Avenue.He loved snuggling up to daddy and fell right asleep. Sasha will only sleep when in motion, he wakes up the second we stop moving. It keeps us in shape since we can't stop moving when carrying or strolling him around town.

All of a sudden Sasha is big enough to see what's going on....when did he get so big???
