A few Squirmy Pictures with Mom

Egg Hunt

Easter Morning

 Easter brought lots of excitement. Our first sleep over with friends.  

Sleeping in the bottom bunk (until a cat showed up and we had to rearrange sleeping arrangements)

Easter baskets

Lots of Candy

We can't wait to do it again next year.

 We had a such a fun time hosting Thanksgiving.  

Thanks for coming everyone!

Readings and Skyping

 We are Thankful for Skype. 

 And having lots of family come celebrate with us

Thanksgiving Morning

We had a great time hosting our first Thanksgiving.  

Charlie and Gretchen watched the Macy's day parade

Tree Time

 Now that our tree is down I have time to post pictures of when we put it up.  

Trick -or -Treat?

 We had a Thomas the Train costume but Charlie gave a very firm "no" to it.  He also gave a very firm "no" to anything at the store that I showed him so we went as a lumberjack.  

 He didn't like the hat at first but we snuck it on him while he was distracted.  

 It's not truly Halloween without a temper tantrum in the street.  

The parts of Halloween that Charlie liked the most were:

a.  holding a flashlight

b.  knocking on doors

c. Putting stuff (he could careless if if was candy) into his pumpkin

d. carrying his pumpkin and saying it was "heaby' 

Red White and Preppy

I'm a little behind, but this was from the 4th of July on our way to Boston. Charlie had no shortage of red white and blue outfits for the weekend. 

Mmmm Turkey

Boston Fireworks

 Charlie was a real trooper and had a fun time up on the roof.

The view before the fireworks is so cool too.   

I feel like Mary Poppins up on that roof!

He Likes it Now!

It took a few tries and some coaxing from Dad, but Charlie likes the water now! He spent 4th of July floating around, then went to Uncle Dan's Marina pool and 2 days of swimming with Grandma and Grandpa in Connecticut. I had to explain to Charlie that although he went swimming 4 days in a row, he cannot go every day.  

First Mothers Day

                               Well I got treated to a very nice first Mothers Day. It's really easy to be a mother so far, I just eat a little extra food and had to buy some new clothes......I have a feeling something about that will change though.  

Help me!

Here are some more Ella pictures, just because she's so cute and it makes my day everyday to see pictures of her on Erin's blog.The one below is blurry, but really cracks me up. HELP ME!

Tons of Turkey

We were ready for tons of turkey down at my Aunt Gina's house. We had a good crowd this year, all topped off with an eating contest.
