obey Eli
Speaking of art, I took Elias to Boston's Institute of Contemporary Art this morning to see the Foster Prize and Shepard Fairey exhibits. Because of the holiday on Monday, my class met today instead and rather than try to get Neal to re-arrange his work week, I thought I'd schedule a field trip and get away with a little double duty.
We were only at the museum for about an hour, but Elias was a well-behaved visitor until we were on our way out, when he decided he didn't want to use his indoor voice any longer. Otherwise, the trip was a success and now I'm thinking of all the other museums and indoor spots I'd like to take him while the weather is still less than ideal for outings.
It's timely, then, that we should receive this lovely hand-knitted hat from our friend Jess.
Cute, huh? I like the colors - warm gray (can a neutral color be warm?) and a sort of turquoise/teal. And the ear-flaps. Very clever. Lovely. As are her other creations and prints, several of which you can purchase here. I love Etsy, don't you?

Oh, man! He gets cuter all the time! I'm glad he did so great at the museum. I used to fantasize about taking my kids to museums with crayons and letting them sit on the benches and copy pictures they like...I think it's still going to be a while before my kids should be out with crayons. =)
That hat looks adorable and comfy, too. I think grey can be warm.
Thanks! It was a short visit, about an hour. I think you might have to smuggle in your crayons :)
