Noah’s really into his new sleeping bag, he takes it everywhere.

Tidy cookie eating.

Fancy lunch at Jordan Pond.

Eagles and stuff.

Obstacles that needed to be overcome.

Then there was an accident and a wardrobe change.

Learning that some obstacles are easier than others.

Feels like there is a troll at every bridge lately.

Fellow hikers.

Back at the house, waiting for sunset.

Right before sunset Kate and I went to check out the Bass Harbor Lighthouse. A: to see it at sunset and get an easy photo, and B: to see who else was out trying to get some easy photos.

Fellow photo-enthusiasts.

The pier near the house we rented.

Waking up in our tent in Kennebunkport, ME. Everyone slept well, even with Noah’s sleep crawling.

While I got cleaned up Noah grew a tail.

So far the people in Maine seemed nice…

My parents (Nana and Grampa) met us at the house we rented.

Noah has so much to learn…

Ahh.. Vacation. Here is part one of how it went down.

Lunch time exercise on our drive to Kennebunkport, ME two Friday’s ago.


In New Hampshire we hit some serious rain.

Luckily our campsite was completely dry.

Leaving dinner.

Back at the campsite, Noah in the sleeping bag that Aunt Mindy got him for his birthday.

How did Noah’s first night in the tent go? I’ll tell you tomorrow…

 

Party at School

On Tuesday I brought in the cupcakes that Noah and Kate made for a quick (early) birthday party classmates.

It’s a tough time of year for birthday parties. More that half of Noah’s classmates were away or out for the day. It worked out for the kids that were there though, they got bigger goodie bags.

As everyone sang Happy Birthday, Noah pretended to sleep.

Cupcake time.

Audrey, Noah, and Aaron.

Alex and Logan.

Noah as “conductor” as the kids went off the play, and I went back home.

Louis’ Birthday

Kate and Noah making some cupcakes on a wet and rainy Sunday.

In the afternoon we walked over to Louis’ for his birthday party.

A record setting 8 inches of rain fell.

Louis showing us his toys.

I was tempted to just let the rain wash Noah off…

Happy Birthday Louis, thanks for inviting us!
