Beach evening

October

I'm 2!

We celebrated Niall's second birthday this September, time is really flying by.  His Mimi came for a visit and we held a small party by the pool. He's really into baseball, soccer, trains and now riding his scooter. Since Niall moved up to the 2-3 yr old classroom at daycare his vocabulary has really exploded. Fast cars, his choo-choo trains and every time he "bonks his head", which is often, are frequent topics of conversation. We are 3 months out from expecting a little brother or sister and am getting excited for the arrival!

I'm a turtle now

Padres Game

We attended our second game of the season with Uncle Brendan and Tiffany. Niall ran the bases at the kiddie baseball diamond and dined on fries, popcorn and peanuts. We had a very tired but happy kid that night.  

Summer Friends

July 4th Back East

This year our annual trip to the East coast flew by. We visited Mimi and Papa and family in RI for the Fourth and then zoomed up to NH to visit with Nana and Grampy. We had plenty of beach, pool and boat time to keep cool as it was in the 90's for most of our visit. Niall is quite the water bug and loved playing with his second cousins at Gooseberry beach. He took a little while to warm up to the idea of floating in the lake but eventually got the hang of it. We were able to catch some fire works which Niall wanted "more" of. We also announced that we are now expecting another child which is due in January, we couldn't be happier!
