Day out with Dad

I had to go to work today, it is Veteran's Day, a federal holiday. Jeff didn't have work, so Peter stayed home with Jeff. It was in the works to go ice skating. Jeff tried this once before, and the cost was outrageous. Even though the cost was still outrageous, Jeff and Peter went skating. Jeff told me he was so very proud. Peter fell, but got right back up. After twenty minutes he was done, Jeff put him in the car and guess what? Peter wanted to go skating again. I think we have a future NHL player!

Time Change

Time change and a big Friday night trick or treating makes for a very tired and cranky child. This is where he chose to rest today.

Saturday Breakfast

I don't think this needs a paragraph to explain how much Peter likes jam.

Happy Halloween

Going through the loot


Naughty Monkey

Peter was a monkey for Halloween. He was able to imitate the animal very well because the Wiggles have a song called "Do the Monkey". He was very polite for the first 20 houses, he would say "trick or treat" and "thank you". Towards the end he became shy, but did manage to say "boo" to a few homes. When we got home, he served time in the naughty chair, but did manage to give out candy to bigger kids.

Bowles Farms, Clements, Maryland

Today was a very fun day. We headed south to St. Mary's county with our friends and their daughter who is slightly older than Peter. This farm has amazing corn mazes every year. This year the theme of the maze was the Blackistone Light House. We attempted to make it through the maze, however we would still be there now had we not cheated. We went on a wagon ride, played in a corn box, jumped in the hay, rode a barrel pull and even saw piggies and sheep. I am sleepy, so I know Peter is too. Click on Bowles Farm link to see more.

Coast Day in Cape May

Sunday was Coast Day at the Lobster House in Cape May. It was a lot of educational happenings. Peter got to touch a crab in the water with help from the people at the Nature Conservancy, he fed a turtle blueberries and we took home a lot of free "stuff". We had a great lunch on the deck of the Lobster House and Peter really enjoys Daddy's clams.

Delaware Bay with Kahlua

We drove up to my parents for a weekend of beautiful weather. Peter, Jeff, Kahlua, my mom, and neighbor Peg went to the bay for an evening activity. The water was warm enough to get wet, as you will notice that Peter eventually wound up in just a diaper. Of course Kahlua had the best time of all.
