Shipping Off to Boston...

Today, Mommy & Alexander spent the day in Boston! It was such a perfect day - the weather was great and Alexander was very well behaved!We first walked around the waterfront where Alexander checked out some boats, both big & small. After some lunch, we walked over to Fanueil Hall where we walked around a bit before we got some ice cream. Alexander almost dropped his ice cream but between his shirt and a nice woman to help us out as she came over to rescue the falling ice cream he was still able to eat his chocolate ice cream.

We then took the T over to the Boston Common where we got (yet another) ice cream and then played on the playground. After the playground, we walked around the Boston Common for a bit - took some photos and then took the T back to Govt Center.We were headed back towards the car but Alexander saw a street performer so he wanted to take a peek. He stood on a mini wall, watching him, but didn't pay attention that as he was taking steps to the side he would run out of room. And then BAM - he fell off the wall and hit his leg on the wall and a planter. I thought for sure he banged his penis again as that's what he immediately began to grab as he screamed. Quickly, I picked him up and brought him off to the side to get him to calm down and make sure he was okay. As it turns out, he mainly fell down on the upper inside of his thigh and everything is a-ok.
As we were heading back to the car (with some residual tears), we stopped at the hot dog stand at the Aquarium to get a hot dog (that Mr. sad face didn't end up eating)...so we headed back to see the boats and make our way home. Overall it was a fantastic day for the two of us!
