First baseball game!

Take me out to the ballgame!

Take me out to the crowd!

Arrange a surprise encounter with a very large, fuzzy, dog-like mascot


I don't care if he ever gives me back


For it's root-root-root for the (Salem) Red Sox


If they can't beat the Myrtle Beach Pelicans I'm never coming back to another game . . .



For (I'm a fair-weather fan and) it's ONE - TWO - THREE strikes you're out at my first ballgame!


Jail break?

Easter Eggstravaganza

Alex celebrated his first Easter






with Grandma Cookie & Granddad


as well as his Aunt Carter
& Uncle Tripper.


We tried to introduce him to the concept of an egg hunt.
The determined little guy looked everywhere but couldn't seem to find anything.


He did manage to locate daddy's Peeps, though.


He wasn't quite sure why we kept talking about eggs. Clearly, these white things being dunked in the colorful liquid are "balls" (along with everything else that is round).


And he reminded us of that over and over.





He woke up on Easter morning to find the basket full of goodies the Easter bunny left for him.




(Channeling his inner bunny).


And then got all dressed up for brunch with the family.







It's a good thing, too, because he was hungry.


Afterwards, he enjoyed the beautiful weather with his new Easter pal, whose hair he had completely chewed off by the end of the day.







As far as holidays go, this one's a new fave.







Don't forget to stop by the house next year, Bunny!
