The Summer Fun Series - Part IX
These first pictures are from the same petting zoo we saw last week. This is the E-man riding a horse for the first time:
And here’s another addition to “The Summer of Ice Cream.” Both sets of grandparents like to spoil him by taking him out for an ice cream cone (but Mommy did this one!!):
Here are some pictures from the Great New York State Fair (already two months ago!!!!!):
Mom and Dad were just as tired:

The Summer Fun Series - Part VIII
These pictures are from the same petting zoo we looked at last week. The E-man had a great time playing:
The next two are sort of blurry, but I think that only adds to the carefree nature of childhood:
I see a stuntman in the making.

The Summer Fun Series - Part V
The final post in the Summer Fun Series. These are inside pictures, but they’re still great memories from this summer. The first picture shows just how tall the E-man is getting these days:
In the next picture, the E-man was building a barricade to trap the cat underneath the television stand. Of course, the cat could have escaped out the back if she had wanted to, but I think she was having fun too:

More great pictures from August 2007. These are a little petting farm up north, which the E-man loved, of course.
He did NOT want to leave:

The Last Night
It’s Sunday night, and I’m about to start my second year of law school. I’m a little nervous; this is going to be an absolutely crazy semester and I’m hoping I’m up to the challenge. My wife and the E-man are up north visiting family, and I sure do miss them. I can’t wait for this first week to be over. Wish me luck!

The Summer Fun Series - Part I
Over the next few weeks, I will be posting some pictures from August. As far as the weather goes, it was a beautiful month and we took full advantage of it. We have had a full and fun summer.
The other day, he fell asleep this way:
Here is a picture from a great day at the beach:
A local farmer grew sunflowers instead of corn this summer. We saw the article in the paper, and thought we’d take a look:

Camping in the Adirondacks
Last weekend we went camping in the Adirondacks. We left on Friday and came home on Sunday. The E-man had the time of his life - he’s a natural camper. His parents had a good time too, although a lot of it was spent wet and cold since the weather refused to cooperate. We did, however, make the most of it!
Here’s the E-man getting ready to go! It’s the last warm bath for a few days!
This is Friday afternoon, and the last bit of blue sky we’d see for the next 2 days:
Chasing bubbles through the wilderness:
Saturday morning, and my favorite picture of the whole trip:
We had a few raccoons visit us during the night:
The E-man loved feeding bread to the ducks:
This is the three of us waving hello to all our readers!
And finally, after a long day of playing hard:

A Sunny Weekend “Up North”
Almost all of our family lives north of us on the map, so when we’re planning on visiting, we say that we’re going “Up North.” Last weekend we went up north, and here are some pictures:
While we were there we had some delicious strawberries that were grown, picked, and sold by the Amish. They were incredibly fresh and delicious, some of the best strawberries I think I’ve ever had:

Another Day at the Beach
We stopped by a local beach to check out the site where my sister and her husband will be having their wedding reception this summer. It was such a beautiful day that we decided to stay for a while. The E-man had a great time playing in the sand!!

A Few More Pictures - Dinner and a New Chair
The other night Mommy caught the picture bug and took a bunch of pictures at the dinner table. As always, the E-man looked great in the photos, so I thought I’d share some of our favorites. In the picture with his hands over his eyes, I love how stubby his little fingers are - they won’t stay that way for long.
And that’s his new lounge chair, which he loves. His favorite part is the cup holder!

Birthday Party!!
This is REALLY late, but I wanted to post a few pictures of the E-man’s second birthday party. It was a beautiful sunny day in late April, and lots of people were there to share it with us. He received way too many presents, forcing us to shove more of his older toys into the scary toy closet! That will be a project for this summer.
As you can see, the E-man loves horses. My wife made his beautiful birthday cake, and it tasted as good as it looked!
