Boston's got talent

CRAZY HUH?
How he figured this out: He always used to stick his 2 fingers in his mouth (as demonstrated in the video) and pull on his eyelashes when he was tired. I'm guessing that at some point the pull turned into a flip and this is the result. Funny thing...he almost ALWAYS has to have his fingers in his mouth before he will flip the eyelid, though occasionally when he gets going and there is an audience involved he will take the fingers out and go for the grand display of flipping both eyelids at the same time. Obviously I wasn't that great of an audience.
I was (and maybe still am) a little worried that the cartilage (or whatever is in the eyelid) might lose it's shape and he'd end up with a deformed eye - which it actually looks like it is when this video ends but it's really not...at least not yet - so I talked to the pediatrician about it. She said that she didn't think it would do any damage but that it would probably be best to ignore it when he does it and hopefully he will stop doing it eventually. So far that hasn't happened - as you can tell by my encouraging him to do this for the camera for you all to see. btw...sorry for the squeals. I know they are obnoxious but that's the kind of reaction he really goes for.

Fabulous Family Vacation

We spent a week in Los Cabos, Mexico with the kids and Lenny’s parents. It was a great vacation! Lenny found a place online that was a three bedroom, penthouse suite at the top of a beachfront resort. We had a great view of the ocean and spent plenty of time on the balcony just relaxing and listening to the waves crashing on the beach.

The kids had been talking about our trip to Mexico for a long time. They were so excited to wear their new swimsuits and play in the water. In fact, that is pretty much what they wanted to do all day long was to spend time in the swimming pool. We also spent some time on the beach and in the ocean.

Of course, grandma and grandpa spoiled the kids rotten. Grandpa bought Abby about every imaginable piece of jewelry possible (necklaces, bracelets and rings). He bought me a bracelet and earrings too. Jackson and Boston were spoiled with toys and shirts.

Our last night we ate at a restaurant called ‘The Tropicana.’ They had a tank of live lobsters in the seating area and the kids were able to see a lobster up close.

All in all it was a fabulous vacation with lots of sun and relaxation. We hope to do it again soon.

P.S. Lenny had to write this so I would get it on the blog.
So all of you who have been on my case to update can thank him.

P.S.S. Since I never updated about the pregnancy complications...
placenta is back where it should be and everything is great.
