Sick in Boston! Boo!

Dinner plans were dashed since I got sick during our trip. Luckily Mommy packs for every contingency and had children's tylenol on hand. Mommy and Daddy even let me take over the bed.


Luckily it was a short lived illness and I was still able to do some sight seeing after a day in bed.

Boston Day 2

On our second day we decided to go to the Aquarium.

They had a whole bunch of penguins inside of the building. They were almost as smelly as Daddy.


This Giant Sea Turtle decided to come over for a picture. I wonder if he knows Crush and Squirt from "Finding Nemo".


Don't worry this one is not a real turtle.


Nor a real penguin.


This is a live starfish though!


Hey look I'm at the center of a turtle sandwich.


I have it's head.



Later on in the day we went to the Prudential Center. I got to make a wish in this fountain and we were going to get dinner but.......

Boston Day 1

Daddy got to go to Boston for an Actuarial Meeting. Mommy and I decided to tag along to see the town.

The first night we got there we decided to eat at the Barking Crab. The Barking Crab was featured on the TV show "Man Vs Food". It was a fun cozy little place.


Here is the view from our table. The food was great.


I got to share with both Mommy and Daddy. Mommy had the fried fisherman's platter with whole belly clams, fish, scallops, and shrimp. Daddy had a Lobster BLT sandwich.

Grandma C's Birthday

We had a fun birthday dinner for Grandma C.

When it came to present time of course I had to help her open them.


What you got there Grandpa C?


Grandma C did you know are birthdays are pretty close together?

Sponge Painting

Mommy and I decided to do some painting with sponges.


I'm making a winter scene.


I like green.


Hmm, it looks like I have been finger painting.

Last bit of Halloween fun

Here are my last pictures of Halloween fun.

Trick or Treat Grandma C!


Hi Aunt Jenny and Uncle Rob.



Here Kennedy and I are with her dad Josh. Kennedy was Elmo for Halloween.



It was cold here in Iowa so we went to the mall to Trick or Treat. They had the princess, candy, and colors there.

Happy Birthday Aunt Jenny and Uncle Rob

Since Aunt Jenny's and Uncle Rob's birthdays are close together we celebrate them together.

We decided first to go out for dinner.


Sometimes I bring my own food from home to supplement.


After dinner we went back to my house to open presents.


Of course they needed my help opening presents.


Grandma W gave Aunt Jenny this little bit of sweetness! It was Aunt Jenny's in middle school.


After presents we got to dig into this giant cookie.


I like it when people read to me.


Grandma and Grandpa W we better get a picture together.


Aunt Jenny I am going to get your nose.

More Halloween Activities

At Dahl's our local grocery store they had a station where you got to frost your own cookie.


It's yummy.


At the local Parks and Rec there was a Halloween Party.

I got to carve my very own pumpkin at the party.


Daddy helped do the cutting.


I pulled out the pieces.


Here is the finished product.


After all that hard work I thought I deserved some pie. Pumpkin of course.

Water Babies at the YMCA

I caught Grandpa W at the Y before my Water Babies class.


Here I am teaching Daddy how to do the backstroke.


Daddy gets a little squirt in the face for taking his eye off of what I am doing.

Autumn and Falling Leaves

Look a huge pile of leaves.


I think Daddy and I should play in it.


Yeah!


Still working on the jumping.
