First day of soccer

The town is offering soccer camp on Saturdays and Walter wants to learn, so here we are. He gets so excited about it. I missed this first day while at work, but will be there the next weeks.


Walter, all kitted out when we first bought his shin guards and shorts.

Finishing up the vacation...

While on vacation last week, we all took a trip to the Children's Museum in Portland. on our way there, we picked up a picnic from Hannaford's and drove to the Eastern Promenade and sat in the park overlooking the bay.


Walter's favorite part of it, was of course, the cookie.


M took this really great photo of us. We sat on the bandstand in the park. Perfect weekday afternoon for it.


Byron was busy running around.


And the boys discovered a multitude of flower petals. Maybe someone had a wedding there?


Then, they had to run around to burn some energy off.








When we got there, the first thing Walter found was the large replica of a fire engine, complete with hose, sirens, lights and jackets, hats and boots.


Just try tearing him away from this.


Then, it was a blast off into outer space in a space shuttle.


Piloting is a very serious business.




But, that doesn't mean that the co-pilot can't help.


No! Not THAT button!




At least there was something a little more age appropriate for Byron to do while we were there too. Now, all Walter does is talk about when we're going back.

The Shaving Lesson

Here you go, brother. your arm is getting a bit hairy.


Hey, that's a smooth shave!


Thanks, brother!


Now what does it taste like?


Can I get out now?

The Wild One

Byron is always so proud standing and striking a pose next to his "bike" out on the deck.

What do you get...?

When you add applesauce and a spoon and a little boy?








...one messy little boy!

Byron's Punk Days

After bath-time

What do you get...?

When you have one little boy...


And add a full bowl of Froot Loops and milk?


One tired little boy.
