Party at Katie's in Western Mass

Andrew being kind to 6 month old baby Tessa.

Wagon ride!




It was a big mommy get-together!
There were quite a few moms present and it was all potluck-style. One mom brought a large pizza for the kids. Pictured below is Katie's sister, Kara, and her son Atticus. Katie, Kara, myself and "Auntie" Wendy all grew up together as buddies.

Naked boys!!!

Andrew loved Hendrix, who was always nearby to catch scraps!

Carson Beach with Oskar

The last time we were here was last September on a nice "Indian Summer" day..... And yikes, can we believe that it's already past mid-July? Summer goes by fast... Too fast for those of us who enjoy the beach! I thought it would be more fun this year but now I think *next* year will be even better (once he can walk). For now, I end up carrying him around a lot to see the sights. He is not a fan of the (freezing) water.
Figures the camera came out as we were leaving! And probably after one of our typical comments, "I wish I had the camera right now." (And then, oh yeah! It's in the diaper bag!)
Oskar is soooo busy now that he's able to walk around everywhere! He even tried chasing seagulls! Andrew is "into" small objects. We collected some in a water bottle for him to shake around. The water at this beach is murky at low tide (best to visit at high).
