Seacoast Science Center

This past Saturday, we weren't sure what to do considering Hurricane Danny was causing rainy weather, so we went for a ride out to the beach to see the waves and while we were there we went to the Seacoast Science Center!

Me and Daddy had a great time playing at the weather-tracker station
Then we got to play with the lobsters and the lobster traps...

...they weren't real lobsters!

Mommy and I took a "ride" in a row boat...

...then Daddy showed me all the sea critters, like star fish and urchins.

We saw all kinds of fish and even a turtle...

...and a REAL lobster!

Alpha-Mat

Me & Gus...best buddies!

Baptism Day

On Sunday, August 16th, I got baptized!

Our family just before the ceremony...
Being blessed... ....being baptized ...the holy oil Me, Mommy, Daddy, and my Godparents...Auntie Erin & Uncle Tim

As you can imagine, being almost 14 months old and recently "finding my feet" all I wanted to was walk during the ceremony...Father Ray was really cool, he told Mommy not to worry about it and let me walk, so that's just what I did...
...up and down the aisle, back and forth!

CIGNA/Elliot 5K

Congratulations Mommy!!!

So, against the doctor's recommnedation to take it easy, Mommy ran in the CIGNA/Elliot 5K last night...and she did just that, she ran the entire race! She did SO good and we are all SO proud of her! Mommy said the best part, other than completing the race, was seeing Me, Daddy, and Auntie Ali at the finish line, cheering her on!

There's the finish line...

And here comes Mommy!!! Go MOMMY!!!Auntie Nicole ran in the race too and she did an AWESOME job, we are so proud of her too!!! Way to go Auntie Nicole!!! Mommy finished the race in 35:16, with a pace of 11:21

In Mommy's words "Not too shabby for my 1st 5k!"

Congratulation's Mommy!
We love you and are SO proud of you!

Date Night

So last night Daddy surprised Mommy with a Date Night...at FENWAY PARK!!!

Mommy was SO excited! She said it had been a long time since she went to game and couldn't wait! Daddy planned everything...He asked Auntie Nicole to come over and watch me, (FYI...me and Auntie had SO MUCH FUN!!! Mommy & Daddy should go on dates more often!) he came home early, and off they went!!!

Mommy's favorite player, up at bat!

Mommy took this picture for Auntie Nicole, who LOVES Justin Pedroia
It looks like they obviously had a great date night!!!

And the Red Sox WON!!!

Pig Roast

This year's Pig Roast was at Auntie Nicole and Uncle Mitch's new house and this year I was old enough to actually have some!!! Oh, it was YUMMY!!!

Here's Uncle Nick checking out the pig!

Me & Auntie Nicole being silly with our lips!
"Oink, Oink"
The boys carving the pig...well Uncle Mitch & Uncle Nick were carving the pig, Daddy just jumped into the picture!

We played Ladder Ball...Hey Josh, I'll be on your team...

...nevermind, I want to be on Daddy's team!

Auntie Sarah & Uncle Jamie

Lilian made a bunch of new friends at the Pig Roast...these girls were teaching her how to do cheerleading!

It's football time!

Isabella striking a pose...

...and Sebastian eating ice cream!

This guy Matt kept "bumping fists" with me and then going "BOOOOMMMMM!!!"

He was SO silly...I like him!

Daddy says I can't play this game until I'm older, but he let me watch so I could "learn a few tricks!"

We all slept over Auntie Nicole's & Uncle Mitch's house and the next morning, we had a big pancake breakfast out on her patio. Uncle Jamie made all the pancakes and they were SO YUMMY!!! Uncle Jamie you can come over any morning and make me some pancakes!!!

Look at what Auntie Nicole got me...

...a swing for her front porch!!!

Weeeeee....

Auntie Nicole took me out in her front yard after we were done swinging and we collected a some leaves- they had already turned colors!

It was a great Pig Roast...I can't wait for next years!!!

Summer Vacation 2009

Our Summer Vacation started off with a day at the lake!

Auntie Erin, Uncle Shane, Sam, and Brenna came up and spent the night, cause the following day we were going to Story Land! We spent all afternoon Sunday at the beach...we played in the sand, we went swimming, and we even got to chase a few ducks!

Me and Daddy starting to build a sandcastle

Sam was the first in the water...she's like a fish, she could stay in the water all day if Auntie would let her! ;~)

Brenna doesn't really like the sand or the water, so she mainly stayed in her tent

Auntie felt bad Brenna didn't want to come out and play with us, so she decided to go in the tent with Brenna...silly Auntie!

Me and Daddy taking a walk on the beach

Next was Mommy's turn to walk on the beach with me!

Uncle Shane and Brenna soaking it all in...

Me and Auntie decided to try and build a sandcastle

And when Auntie wasn't looking, I did what I do best...I DESTROYED HER CASTLE!!!

(And Mommy thinks she has evil eyes...she's got nothing on me!)

"What? Yeah, that's right I knocked down your castle! What you gunna do 'bout it?!?!"

"I RULE!"

Time to build another castle...

After Auntie forgave me for knocking down her castle, she helped me chase the ducks that were trying to sit on our blankets!

Stay away ducks! This is our beach!!!

Oh, poor Auntie! She really should have learned the first time...

...seriously, she should have seen it coming!

After we were done swimming and playing on the beach, it was time to head back to the lake house! Auntie, didn't I tell you that is MY phone!!!

Brenna LOVED riding on my car! Beep, Beep!!!

Me and Daddy watching news...

Tubby Time!!!

"Come on Mommy, a little privacy here?!?!?"

After me and Brenna went to bed, apparently Auntie and Sam decided to make s'mores!

I can't wait until I can stay up and have s'mores...they look YUMMY!!!

Brenna was passed out on Uncle Shane...it was a long, fun, day!
