It's Fall. Time for Apple Pickin'

This past weekend we had a wonderful fall experience and went apple picking at Terhune Orchards outside Princeton, NJ. We went with our friends Mike and Sari and their little girl, Leila and had a fantastic time.

Simon did a little more apple eating than picking but it was a great time nonetheless. Click on Simon to see more pictures from our adventure.

It's been a FUN Summer!

We have had a blast this summer. Along with enjoying the park and sprinklers, we have hosted pool parties, gone on outings, and visited friends and family. Here are some highlights...

Simon and his friends enjoyed our roof deck baby pool. Apparently the water was refreshing and delicious.


We visited:
the Prospect Park Zoo


the Brooklyn Children's Museum


and the Brooklyn Botanical Garden (where Simon took some time to stop and smell, er taste, the roses )


We enjoyed a trip to Harrisburg to see Grandma and Grandpa. While there, we visited Dutch Wonderland.


And Simon even rode Duke's Dozers by himself (at least 5 times)


And we just returned from a trip visiting our new friend Maya


It has been a busy summer. We can't wait for fall!

The Beach is fun!

We recently returned from our 2nd annual family trip to Fenwick Island, Delaware.

We had a fantastic time enjoying the sun, sand and water. Click on Simon to see more pictures from our trip...

GUITAR!!!

Simon is really enjoying our music classes and has recently become obsessed with guitars. Everything is a guitar, the TV remote, the telephone, and of course our Wii Guitar Hero controller.

This past Saturday, I found the perfect guitar for Simon, a ukulele.

Here is Simon showing off his skills!

The Sprinklers are ON!

At (almost) 19 months, Simon is really starting to enjoy the sprinklers at the playground. Today he even decided to go in fully clothed to get a drink. Here are some pictures and a short video of Simon's refreshing morning.

Ready for the Summer

Simon is getting ready for summer. He is starting to enjoy the sprinklers at the park - or at least the puddles they create.

Here he is cooling off "Simon Style."

18 Months is "Awesome"

Last week we visited Grandma and Grandpa in Harrisburg. Simon had an especially great time as he turned 18 months. We marked the occasion with cupcakes. And Grandma and Grandpa gave Simon a tricycle. He rode it as often as he could (literally from sunup till sundown). We also enjoyed an afternoon at Hershey Park.

In Simon's words, it was "awesome!"
