Our Romantic Getaway....er....sort of

October 3rd was our third anniversary and Ari planned a surprise weekend away for just us sans baby. This would be the first time we'd be away from Sasha and while we were nervous to leave him we were excited to sleep in until at least 8am!

At the last minute an unfortunate personal issue came up and we no longer had child care for Sasha. We debated for all of three seconds whether we should bring Sasha since our trip. Of course the verdict was YES. He is really fun.  

The surprise trip was to Block Island, a lovely island 13 miles south of Rhode Island. We couldn't have been happier to have our little guy along for the ride, he made us laugh the whole time. Sasha really loves to go on vacation as much as we do, so we plan to do many more family trips. 

On the ferry to Block Island. Sasha kept saying Agua. 

A little snack at the local pub. The beer was for mama. 

As luck would have it our hotel had a farm.  

Blustery wind in blondies hair at the light house. 

A little milk and cheese at happy hour.  

One last look at the animals. 

Catching up on some zzzz's after a fun weekend.

Having a toddler,  is downright messy. Now that Sasha is attempting to feed himself and what seems like the floor, the ceiling, the walls, you name it, things have gotten messy. He's great with the spoon and the fork and now has moved onto overall house hold cleaning. He watches me constantly sweeping and wiping up his toddler messes, so he too wanted to join the fun. Basically, whatever we do, Sasha wants to do...PERIOD. 

On a recent field trip to look at studio space for Ari we of course brought our trusty decision maker. Good thing we did since one building was clearly much more dirty than the other building. Our Mr. Clean found a broom and dustpan and got to work.

Good thing I found a broom this place is a mess. 

I better check down the hall, I suspect it's messy there too. 

I'm working so hard, I hope I get a snack after this. 

A toddler's work is never done. 

All in a days work.......
