Mystic

Chloe all dressed up for the wedding. Sorry no photos yet of the whole family dressed up, of course I didn't get any of those but, bet we will get one from someone else and I will post when we do. She has on a coat, it was rainy and a bit chilly. She was such a trooper. She didn't get the greatest sleep because the hotel was loud and she stayed up late the two nights in a row and yet she still had a great time. She is such a happy kid. We had a great time.
In this picture you can see a Beluga Whale in the aquarium behind Chloe. She is pointing at the rain hitting the surface of the tank. We had a great time at the Mystic Aquarium and I totally recommend it for anyone heading that way.

Chloe and I are checking out some waterbugs and a frog which, Doug tried to catch for us. We had a great hike on a trail in the woods in Mystic. Chloe loved playing on the rocks, picking up the acorns and leaves. It was a great fun.


Here is Chloe running on the trail in the woods. Love the look on her face and her green sneakers.



Couldn't go to Mystic without checking out the Mystic Pizza joint. And finally the video is of the hike in the woods and I apologize for it being sideways but, I just loved the video and well don't know how to rotate a video so there you go, hope know one gets a crook in their neck watching it.

Boston - Oct09

Doug, Chloe and I headed to Boston for the wedding of Todd and Kelly Bracher (in Stonington,CT). We had a wonderful time. On the first day we got into Boston early enough to get Chloe her afternoon nap and then head on down to the Charles to check out some rowing. I just adore that area. Here you can see Chloe found something to climb in Cambridge, sure it was a light pole but what can you do? The kid loves to play.
Here you see Chloe and I in a courtyard at Harvard. There were all of these awesome chairs of various colors so, Chloe just kept moving from chair to chair to see if the color made a difference in the feel of the chair. She settled on this pink chair which, coincidentally matched her jacket.

If in the future she decides she wants to go to Harvard, do you think we can count this as her tour of the campus?


Love the arch over their heads. Doug made us walk all the way around the campus looking for this arch in particular, apparently he had taken Caitlin through it at some point in the past and really wanted Chloe to go through it as well.

I am absolutely positive Chloe is beaming in this picture due to the boats and the boathouse. Come on who wouldn't love this view. She had a great time running up and down the trail along the Charles and only got run over by a handful of crew teams :). There were a lot of teams running that day. Below is a video I shot of all of us playing on the trail. She is becoming quite the runner.
