Street Smart

Word on the Street was that Sesame Place was open for the Summer and that they opened a new area within the theme park. The only trouble was, the new area was only going to be opened to season ticket holders. Thinking quickly, and covering ourselves since Tiger was expecting to go to the new area, we opted to ‘teach’ Tiger how to tell everyone he was only 2-years old so that we could buy 2 season tickets (and that he would be able to go into the park for free). Yes, I know, it’s not ethical to teach your child these types of life skills at this age, but hey, aren’t we all just a bunch of 2-year olds at heart anyways? Okay, it was worth a shot.

For a look back at some of our other visits last year, see below:

Flashback – May 2011-Present

Introducing the inaugural posting of my Flashback series of photos. With each month’s flashback, I’ll comb through the years to try and select pictures that were taken during the specified month and pictures that haven’t been used in previous postings (although I must admit I didn’t go back and check if these were used).

Babymoon – Returning to Session

On our second trip to Congress Hall in Cape May, NJ, we took full advantage of the two days that we spent there. After checking into Congress Hall late Friday night, we ran around on the beach on Saturday, visited the Cape May Zoo (which was FREE), then capped off the weekend with our first ever visit to the Atlantic City Boardwalk.

In a beach town full of vintage Victorian homes, the Congress Hall sets itself apart just by the structure itself.

Although the final days of any vacation trip is usually met with fatigue, we decided to do the complete opposite and maximum every last minute with a Zoo/Boardwalk combo

We won’t be back here for awhile, but when we do, both little Tiger and little Horse will be sure to love it!

Mama’s Pregnant, But I’m Having a Blast

Even though Mama’s pregnant and we’re going to be introducing Baby Horse to the family soon, there’s never even a second that I don’t feel like I’m the luckiest little Tiger in the world.

Last weekend, we went to the Hall of Science in Brooklyn to attend the Mama’s Expo. I didn’t care for the baby stuff, but I sure did have lots of fun there! (By the way, Dada is waaaayy better at miniature golf than Mama).
