Mama Has a Test Today

We had to travel to Greenwich today.  Mommy had a CT scan scheduled at the hospital there.  Now we find out just how well the operation went.   Alex was cool with it, though.  For one thing, the waiting room had the largest doctor's office activity cube he'd EVER seen.

AND it had a cool saltwater fish tank.

But Alex will tell you that the BEST part of Greenwich (besides the ferries to the islands), is the Oreo Cake.  We stopped at My Favorite Place (that's its name) for lunch - over Alex's protestations.   That was, of course, until it was time for desert.   Oreo Cake for everyone, which turned into Oreo Cake for Alex mostly.  He was even double fisted with flatware.

The fun postscript to the day were the sunflowers we spotted outside the Italian diner in Harrison, across the street from the train station.  Alex just loves sunflowers.  He was so excited to see just how tall and big they get.

Alex says, "I'm being a bee here".

He wasn't too happy to be going home, but Daddy had an interview that day.  I promised Alex that I would take him to the block party that evening.   A promise is a promise.
