I ❤ Vermont

admin — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 04:05:35 +0000

Last weekend we headed up to Vermont to see good friends, splash in the White River, and just enjoy the beautiful state of Vermont. It was my second visit for those of you just tuning in now. Enjoy!

Is there an anaconda behind me!? I guess it just looks like the Amazon…

Helping the planet one little bum at a time.

Ooohhh! It’s chilly, but I like it!

Hey there. You’re my size. Wanna play?

HA! I’m naked with Crocs! A true Vermonter.

The Shea family down by the river.

Guess what!? I took this photo all by myself. Did I capture the love or what!?

Mommy gives great piggyback rides and her strap isn’t a bad teether either.

More water! I can’t get enough. This was at the Montshire Museum of Science.

Lovely Avery Lou Lemire. My friend. She’s one year older than me. I must admit…I have a crush.

My 2nd Annual Trip to Texas

admin — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 04:10:33 +0000

Hey y’all! We had a great time in Texas visiting Grandpa and Grammie Lyon. We relaxed and swam in the pool (water = 92 degrees!), checked out Fort Worth, explored the Caldwell Zoo, and even went on a drive-thru safari called Cherokee Trace. Daddy almost got eaten by a camel, but it was actually the emu that we had to watch out for…aggressive little bugger! All in all, it was a memorable trip. Thanks for having us! Miss you already.

Chillaxing in the pool. This is my ‘defeated by the sun’ face. It was 100+ while we were there. Hot! Hot! Hot!

Don’t let go, Daddy.

Check out my ride! I know what I want for Christmas, Santa!

Did I mention it was hot? I’m a little sweaty in this pic, but my mommy didn’t mind. She wanted to give me kisses anyway.

Tubby time with Quinn!

Yep, we know. There’s a big tiger behind us.

OH WOW! One of my fav expressions.

The Lyon boys are looking good, right!?

Grammie Cathy and Quinn Patrick loved the zoo too!

Photo op! Say Cheese!

Yep! Grandpa let me drive on our safari. Don’t worry I didn’t hit anything.

She was telling me a secret…

This emu was fast and hungry! He followed our car for miles in hopes of getting another nibble.

We went for early morning strolls to visit Odie, the neighborhood donkey. He loves carrots!

Grandpa and I goofin’ off at Andy’s Frozen Custard. Mommy and Daddy couldn’t wait to try it and they were not disappointed!

On our way home to Boston. I was such a good boy!

A Few More From Georges Island.

I’m over here…

Try and catch me.

Break it down…Dancey Dance!

Playgrounds, Cousins, and Boston Harbor Islands!

admin — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 04:02:24 +0000

I had a great weekend with my family. On Saturday I played with my cousins who were visiting from Cali. I showed them my playground and we discovered that we share some of the same friends…Brobee and Toodee from Yo Gabba Gabba! Small world. On Sunday mommy and daddy and I took a ferry to Georges Island, one of the Boston Harbor Islands. We had a picnic lunch and then walked all over Fort Warren, a giant, historic, Civil War fort. Cool, huh!? We ended our day with gelato and a stroll in the North End. I am 1/4 Italian, ya know!

I couldn’t wait to slide down! Look what happened…

I have hair! For those of you who thought otherwise…

Do you mind? I’m trying to watch Yo Gabba Gabba with my cousins.

Hey! Can I play? This is a vintage baseball game on Georges Island. They had funny uniforms and caught the ball barehanded!

Chasing ghosts inside Fort Warren.

Nana Visits

I had so much fun with my Nana. We went to the New England Aquarium and saw the fishies. I was so excited. Mommy called me a little maniac! I didn’t want to miss a thing. Mommy got us a membership so we can go every day now if we want!

Check out those Sharks behind me! Yikes!

Whazat!? It’s a harbor seal! Wow!

This sea turtle was huge!

Nana gives me lots of love-loves. Love you, Nana.

Mommy and I even rode a horsey on the carousel. What a fun day!

Nana also came to my last swim lesson this morning. I’ve been taking lessons twice a week for the past three weeks. I liked it! Can’t wait to practice what I learned in Texas next week. Get ready Grammie and Grandpa Lyon!

1-2-3-DUNK! I went under 5 times and so did Mommy. Brrr!

Nana scooped me up in my froggy towel and away we went! Thanks for a nice visit, Nana. Come again soon, please.

I couldn’t wait to give my daddy a hug when I got home.

Wedding Craziness

This is a picture from my Auntie Lauren’s wedding. She and Uncle Pat made it official. Yay! Looking good, Mom and Dad! We’ve been busy attending weddings and helping out. I helped stuff guest bags. We’ll get back on track here soon. My Nana is in Boston with us right now and I think were going to the NE Aquarium. Stay tuned…

E-I-E-I-O

We visited Drumlin Farm in Lincoln, MA on Sunday. It’s a real working farm and wild life sanctuary. I loved it! There were sheep, goats, cows, chickens and so much more! The farm is huge! Lots of pretty flowers and veggies too. I can’t wait to go back! Next time we’ll have a picnic and go for a dip in nearby Walden Pond. And for those of you wondering about the boo-boo on my nose…well, I got in a fight with a table and the table won.

Really concentratin’ here…like a good driver should.

Now that’s a big tractor!

Baaah!

So many sheep! Wow!

I even got to pet one. G-E-N-T-L-E, right mama?

Peek.

Meow! Hehe.

Silly Daddy.

I frolicked in the flowers.

Thursday Fun Day with Nonna & Grandpa Shea

admin — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 19:29:20 +0000

Nonna and I reading about non toxic bubbles. Very interesting.

Show me how it works, Grandpa!

Cuckoo for bubbles!

Mmm…Nonna is a great cook!

I love to feed myself…

And others! Grandpa needed help with some watermelon.

“The Face” has returned.

My 4th

Chillin’ in Grandpa and Nonna’s backyard with mama.

Two Lyons

I don’t know…you want me to eat this? He doesn’t look very friendly or tasty.

Check out my do! Nice, huh?

Crashed hard!

Crazy Octopus Boy!

Ahhhh!

Don’t try and stop me!

Feeling a little tired now. Being 15 months is exhausting!

Bubbles!

FYI…they didn’t taste that great.

Bubbles make me happy…if you couldn’t tell
