We had such a fun time just setting up for the party! We blasted Lady Gaga songs, danced, and munched on the snacks!
The Sno-Cone machine was definitely a hit!
We set up a table with sand art supplies; it was also a big (messy!) hit.

Gogo and Grandmpa save the day (well, week)
Carolyn and I have been extremely busy lately. We are both working a lot -- I am teaching an evening class 4 evenings a week for a few weeks out in Queens, so I don't get home until 9:00 most nights. Last week was even busier: Carolyn was gone at a conference for three days, I presented at a conference for one day on Staten Island, and then Carolyn and I went away for an overnight trip to Maryland for a wedding. So Gogo and Grandmpa planned to have their visit coincide with our busy time so that they could help out with Avery. It was a tremendous help!
Avery makes EVERYTHING into a train:

Michigan-Massachusetts Trip
We spent a few days up in Michigan at Bubbe and Opa's house.
We went to the East Lansing Arts Festival, and we took a break to get ice cream at the MSU Dairy Store. Yum!
Avery loves his Opa!
Avery with his aunts and his puzzle:
My parents' neighbors have an awesome trampoline!
We got to visit our friends and see their new house!:
Our hotel in Massachusetts had a great indoor pool. Avery was a bit reluctant at first to go in, but once he came in the pool, he didn't want to get out!
We took our friends' daughter with us to the Holyoke Children's Museum, which was lots of fun. They had so much fun making big bubbles, exploring how leaves blow in the wind, and buying vegetables at the pretend market:
It's hard not to notice the huge size difference between Avery and Parker (who is about 6 months younger than Avery). Parents at the museum tried to figure them out (assuming that they were brother and sister, when told how old they are).
No trip to Massachusetts is complete without a visit to the Yankee Candle Flagship store (where it is always Christmas and snows every 4 minutes -- we love it!) and also to Shelburne Falls, where we visited the Bridge of Flowers and saw the falls:
