A Morning at the Trolley Museum

Gus, Isaac and I are spending the morning at the Seashore Trolley Museum in Arundel. It is a great place for kids. They love the trolley rides! Will be adding a phot when I get home, haven't figured that part out from my blackberry yet!

4 month appt.

Today Gus had his 4 month appt! No surprise he is weighing in at 19.12 pds. He is
26 1/2 inches long! He is in the 80th % for length, 99% for weight and head! He is a growing boy and Dr. Goodrich said he is doing great!

Katahdin Trip

Life with a 4 month old can be really tiring! Pete decided a few weeks back that it would be really good for us to try and get away just him and I. We have had a crazy summer and an even crazier fall coming up! I thought it was a great idea. Go camping for the weekend and relax! Ha! He got the idea to hike Mt. Katahdin, the highest moutain in Maine! It's elevation is 5,268 ft! It was named by the Penobscot Indians meaning " The Greatest Moutain". It is also the finish point of the Appalachian Trail. The most famous hike to the summit goes along Knife Edge, commonly misnamed "Knife's Edge", which traverses the ridge between Pamola Peak and South Baxter Peak. The mountain has claimed 19 lives since 1963, mostly from exposure in bad weather and falls from the Knife Edge. The Knife Edge is closed during periods of high wind.It was one of the hardest things I have ever down but one of the coolest!

Happy Birthday Gus!

Another month older! Our little man turned 4 months old today! He is getting so big and really becoming aware of the world around him. He goes for his 4 month checkup next week and I can't wait to find out how tall is he and what he weighs!!
This is my favorite picture of him right now! I took it on Saturday up at my mom's. He loved the lake, he enjoyed in his crab float!

Running on empty

Life has been crazy for the past two weeks and it is only going to get worse! We have at least one event every weekend until after the weekend of Oct. 3rd. 5 weddings in 5 weekends!!! This weekend alone I have a baby shower, houswarming party and a bridal shower. Trying to keep up with the blog but it is sometime tough!!!
