Final Days of Freedom

This last weekend was my last weekend of summer vacation. I'm really going to miss being at home with my little guy. Kenny and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary on Saturday night and Patrick spent the night at Gamma and Pa's house. Poor Patrick had been couped up in the house all day because of the storm and hadn't really napped. But as soon as the storm passed, he headed for his favorite place. Outside.

I am NOT tired. Let me stay outside some more

Hot Weekend

After a summer of rainy crappy days, we've finally had some hot, hot weather. This weekend we got to spend some outside family time. PJ and I stopped by a motorcycle run that Kenny was riding in. Patrick loved looking at all of the bikes, and waved to them as they left. Later that day we stopped by Capron Zoo. Patrick loved looking at the animals, and he kept trying to feed the lamas rocks.

Bye, bye Daddy

Zoom. He's off

What do you think of the animals?

Dancing Baby

This weekend was pretty quiet for us. A nice calm before the storm. I did manage to get a video of Patrick dancing. It's sure to embarrass him for years to come. Enjoy

Busy Weekend

This past weekend was so busy for us. First it was part of my birthday week. On Saturday we went out to dinner to celebrate my birthday with my family. Sunday was by far the busiest. We started off at a birthday party for Teresa. They had every kid's toy imaginable. Patrick was in heaven. Then we stopped by Auntie's for a welcome home Cecelia party. Finally, it was out with the girls to go see Julie and Julia. (If you haven't seen it yet go. It was great!) Thanks everyone for all of the birthday wishes.

Help me jump like the big kids.

We all fall down

Weeeeeeeeee!

Weekend Getaway Part 2

Today we woke up and headed to Sturbridge Village, because I'm a geek and love all the historical stuff. The village was very busy, because they were having a reenactment of a battle between the Colonists and British. The whole village smelled like cooking fires, and when we left we did too. Patrick loved the musket and cannon fire. He even waved and blew kisses to the cannon. However, when we brought him over to see the livestock he cried. When the sheep started baaing he shrieked and ran behind me. What a silly little boy.

Get Ready

Get set

BOOM!

Redcoats marching

I hate livestock. They're dirty, they smell, and they make terrible noises. Get me away!

Now this pig I like. It doesn't make noise or move!

Weekend Getaway Part 1

We needed a break from the gross summer we've been having so I booked us a spur of the moment trip to Sturbridge. We spent yesterday just relaxing at the hotel. We went swimming, and check out the video of Patrick's favorite part of the trip.
