Happy Thanksgiving 2009

Wow- and to think last year at this time he was but 3 weeks old!

Thanks to all our loving family and friends, near and far, and most certainly for our Chester Thomas who is the most wonderful person in the world!

And for your viewing pleasure, here is a video of the kid walking:)

Walking Developments

So, the kid has been able to walk for at least a few weeks now, but was unsteady and unsure enough that he still scooted as his main form of transportation. Well today he just up and walked clear cross the house and has since been a walking machine! He likes to carry items from one location to another and he laughs while he walks- so proud of himself :) He seems to also be down to 1 nap a day. So I guess he's really growing and developing-Crazy!

After a little bit of a bump in the road of the travel plans due to a sick baby, we have recovered and are enjoying our weekend in CT. My sister Lauren came up as a surprise for my mom and we all got to spend the weekend together! Today, we took Chester to the Mystic Aquarium and he had a wonderful time. He pet a sting ray and saw the sea lion show as well as checked out myriad fish before taking a nice aquarium nap in the ergo. It was awesome! Here are some pics of our adventures~ Chester at the aquarium, in the sink taking a bath, and hanging with zizi. enjoy.

Ice cream and bath robes

We made coconut milk ice cream for a gathering at the farm the other day and guess who got to lick the mixer- yup CTFF. He obviously loved it and was so psyched that he got coconut milk all over his face, including on his eyelashes. We then put him in the tub to wash off and when he came out, he got to wear his bath robe, which was too cute not to take a billion photos of. Here are the few best shots- Enjoy!

Special one for the Noni!

Old Pics, New Pics, Red Pics, Blue Pics.

Honeymoon fun

For the week after our wedding, we went to Lovejoy Pond and spent time at the cabin. When we got back to Monroe, we found the Monroe Falls- a good sized water fall and swimming hole just a few miles from our house. Here are some pics of our family having fun!
