Great Grandma


Visiting Great Grandma Gusta! Forrest's favorite thing about the visit was running up and down the long hallways and stairs. Another good thing is people there don't exactly have the sharpest hearing so Forrest's shouting (hopefully) doesn't bother them as much!

New Hampshire


Thanks to grandma Char we had a nice time in New Hampshire. Forrest seemed to enjoy communing with nature, though it takes him a while to get used to any new setting. The rest of us weren't as thrilled about communing with the bugs but we got over that too.


Ukulele Band


If only Lotus could learn to strum, we'd have a whole family band!

Row Row Row Your Boat


On our trip to New Hampshire Forrest became a pro at boating. At first he was very nervous to get in the boat but once we convinced him to try the rowboat (not pictured) he became obsessed with boating. Now every time he sees water he wants to sit in it and pretend to row!


Blueberries for Forrest


Forrest discovers where blueberries come from! They're everywhere you turn, it's like a dream come true! Until he discovered the ride-on airplane they had at the farm, that was the real dream come true. But the rest of us stocked up on fresh blueberries while Forrest played.

2 Years Old!


Forrest is 2! He had his traditional birthday watermelon and ate waaay more of it than he did last year.


He is starting to enter the terrible twos where everything is a negotiation, that is when he can even hear your negotiation tactics over his screaming. But he is talking lots and singing songs and scooting like a pro. Overall we are really enjoying this age!

Mountains


A trip to Bretton Woods in New Hampshire where Forrest ran up and down hills, explored rivers, and enjoyed the hotel swimming pool. All important nature activities.




Every Last Drop


When eating watermelon, make sure you slurp up every last drop of juice. You wouldn't want to waste a drop. But you may want to bring your face to the watermelon rather than the other way around, to avoid spillage. Trust Forrest, he knows from experience.

A Walk in the Woods


The best way to travel! You don't even have to tip your driver! Although you do have to get down to explore stick buildings you may find in the woods.


Carousel


Always a good time on the Boston Common carousel. Forrest usually asks for the rooster. He doesn't seem so excited while he's riding it but then he doesn't want to get off!


Construction Sites


Construction sites are a toddlers parent's best friend! Instant entertainment! We're lucky there's construction everywhere you turn in Cambridge.
