Family Fun

 Here's another fun memory of the summer, a trip to Star Island in NH and hanging out at Karl's house. 

Summer's Ending!

 Summer is coming to an end :( we had a fantastic time. I was so lucky to spend as much time as I did with Charlie. I got to watch all his new things and we do so many fun things together.  

Here are pictures from a trip to Scituate where Charlie tasted all the rocks.  

New Things

 It's crazy how many things Charlie still has to see. He got to see cows, goats and chickens for the first time.  

Fingerpainting

 This is cool!

Crazy Boy!

Charlie is getting quite the little personality.  He also is getting quite messy at dinner which is why I could spike his hair...it was filled with food.  

Where did we go?

 Where did we go on the boat?  We went to Star Island off of Portsmouth. It is  a religious based conference center that you could vacation at.  It was very interesting.  We got some ice cream and headed back through Kittery.  

Water Fun at Karl's

 We went to NH to visit Karl.  He has lots of fun water activities to try.  Paddleboarding and Boating was just a sampling.  

Thanks for the Scooter Erin!

 We were visiting Erin and she graciously said we could borrow the walker they had.  

It is actually Kate and Shane's but I thought it was a great idea.

Then we got it home...

Look how much fun this toy is!

Bouncing Around

Not so happy...

 We were singing happy birthday....Nicole and Tony were happy...Alexander...not happy.  

First Birthday Preview

 I thought I had a brilliant idea to get a picture for Charlie's first birthday using Nicole's decorations....well considering he was really tired and also not wearing pants I don't think we got a keeper.  

Happy Birthday Alexander

 Alexander looked out at all the people who came to his birthday party.

Charlie was going without a nap, but it wasn't too bad.
