Some Videos - Halloween & First Haircut

Philadelphia Zoo

Carter took his first trip to the Philadelphia Zoo today --- he had a great time. Really loved the snakes, gorillas, elephants & giraffes. I can't remember better weather in Philadelphia in November in the 6 years I've lived in the Philly area....

Halloween 2008

From Halloween 2008

Carter had a great nite -- he was a golfer and had a great time hanging out with friends and neighbors, etc.

Getting Ready for Halloween -- 10.30.08

Last nite was "Jack O Lantern" night and Carter is ready to go! From carving the pumpkins, to pulling out all of the gunk, to wanting to eat the gunk -- he thought the whole thing was pretty cool.

Apple Picking -- 10.25.08

For the second year in a row, we went up to Frecon Farms in Boyertown, PA, and had a great time going apple (and pear) picking. It was pretty amazing to see how much changes in a year with Carter -- last year at this time , he was smiling away in his stroller and just chilling out. Now, he is a man on a mission and has developed such an amazing personality.

Pumpkin Picking

The three of us went to Yaeger's Farm in Chester Springs today for a hay-ride and some pumpkin picking. Carter loved exploring the different fields --- it's funny to think about how different he was a year ago, just hanging out in his stroller, and now, he's running the show!





"Yeah... I'm picking pumpkins. What's it to you?"



"Hmm... where to go next?"

Carter's First Haircut

Last Monday, we decided that it was time for Carter to get a bit of a trim -- too many comments from people we barely know!

Here's the before:





Here's where we went -- "Gentlemen's Choice", of course.



And, here's the finished product. He's all set and ready to go!

Outer Banks & Smith Mountain Lake - August 2008

We just got back from a 10+ day trip that included two stops at Smith Mountain Lake in Virginia, a week in the Outer Banks, and a quick one-day trip for Stacey & I up to Charlottesville to watch UVA get embarassed by USC. All in all, a great trip!




We arrived at the house we rented in the last Sunday and stayed through Friday evening. We were soundside in Southern Shores (just on the western edge of Duck) and had a great time for our first trip to the OBX. The weather was really good for every day but one, and we made it to the beach at least twice a day. Carter loved it (although it took a little bit of 'warming up' to the sand) and he was his normal social butterfly on the beach -- including getting picked up by a 2 and a 1/2 year old who couldn't stop hugging him.

I wanted to share some fun pictures, just click on the picture below.

Some Carter Photos

Hey all -- June has come and gone. Between Carter being under the weather for two weeks (including a few days with a 105+ fever), the month was half over before it even started! So, we're playing catch-up on some photos. Enjoy!
