Day 365: Starting our journey

We woke up early to catch our train to New Haven today.

Day 361: My little love

Cuddling with my little one.

Day 360: Scene from A's school

As I walked back from dropping A off at school, I sat for a minute at a bench near the Cathedral.

Day 357: First day of school

School is a bit of a stretch...more like a cross between day care and preschool...but anyway, it's the first day!

Day 356: Labor Day brunch

Our friends invited us over for brunch, and we were pleasantly surprised by the wonderful feast they cooked up for us.

Day 355: Truck driving

We met some friends at the Postal Museum, where they had the cab of a truck available for little ones to play in.  A would have stayed there all day if he could have.

Day 354: Canoeing on the Potomac

We started the holiday weekend off with a canoe ride on the Potomac.  It was the first time A was in such a small boat on the water.

Day 347: Annapolis

We decided to take a spur-of-the-moment trip to Annapolis.  The first thing we did (well, second after eating breakfast) was to take a boat cruise on the Cheseapeake.  It was fun.

Day 344: Another view from the office

I was recording A talking to himself and then singing himself to sleep.

Day 343: Reaching

Baby is always reaching for the camera so he can see the photo I have just taken of him.

Day 342: Dog and bag

Doggie decided to hang out with me while I was working in my office today.

Day 339: Waiting

Playing with flags while waiting for Dad to come home from work on a Friday afternoon.

Day 338: Bye bye, Chicago

After a very busy and fun trip, little A and I finally got on the plane back to DC.  Despite a very long delay that made both baby and mom cranky, we eventually made it home safely.

Day 336: Cousins

The cousins all together!

Day 335: Choo choo

We took the kids to a local train-themed restaurant that brings your food on a little train.  A was really excited when the train finally brought his grilled cheese.

Day 334: Breakfast with cousins

We made it to Chicago and celebrated by having breakfast out with the sister, cousins, and grandparents.  Fun!

Day 333: First haircut

A had his very first haircut in a barber shop today! He did great.

Day 332: Where runs the river?

This is a poster we have up in our kitchen.  Baby has memorized this poem already!

Day 330: Little reader

The little guy is reading up a storm.  Okay, he's not yet really reading, but he is getting close.

Day 329: Little fireman

We went over to our local police station for a National Night Out event, which meant there was security and safety information, car seat checks, and entertainment for the kids.  A didn't like the clowns much but he was excited about getting to sit in the front seat of a fire truck.  I forgot my phone so didn't get any photos but here's the fireman once we got home.
