September Pictures

While Davis and Kristen are still sleeping, I'm catching up on posting pictures.  These are all available on our picasa albums as well.


Each Thursday and Friday morning, Davis goes into daycare at 9:00 instead of 8:00.  This gives us enough time in the morning to head to the park when the weather is nice.  I took the camera along a few times this month to capture a fun loving boy.

See-Sawing.  Looks like he needs a couple of brothers

More Thursday morning park time with dad.

We had a great time peach and plum picking with his buddy Charley.  Davis did a great job picking plums off this tree and then had a great time looking at the tractors and playing in the kids area.







On Thursday morning at the park, Davis spent 20+ minutes on the big boy swing.  He had a lot of fun swinging while I took pictures.  He can't make himself go yet.


Our neighbor gave us this small couch for Davis.  Here is Davis practicing being a teenager (before texting) an Domino being a cat.


On Friday, the 16th, the Town of Arlington had their annual town day celebration.  They bring in some ponies, bouncy houses, a tractor-pulled train, food and a few fire trucks and end the night with a fireworks display.  Davis spent a lot of time in the bouncy house and really liked his first fireworks show (watched from mom's lap).  



Apple picking a Shelburne Farms wasn't nearly as much fun without Charley.  Davis enjoyed running around and even picked a few apples.





On the 18th, we went to Burlington Touch a Truck for the second time.  Davis enjoyed getting his hands on some of the trucks and running around.  It wasn't quite as much fun as last year, but he had a good time.







That is the end of pictures for September.  Since then, we've been packing and getting ready for the move and I haven't had the camera out nearly as much.  I do have a lot of videos on YouTube since I almost always have my phone/video camera/mobile computing platform with me.

Apple Picking

This weekend, we headed up to Kimball Fruit Farm in Pepperell, MA to pick apples, get pumpkins and enjoy a gorgeous fall day.  The weather was 60s and sunny which is just fantastic weather to be outside in the fall.  Davis had a great time riding in the red wagon, eating apples and licking pumpkins.  He even picked an apple off a tree and put it in the bag.   We learned a couple things: Apples are fantastic entertainment at this age; he spent over an hour working on a single apple.  Also, licking pumpkins seems to be his "thing".  He did it at the farm and again when the pumpkins were on the back porch.
