A few more Maine Pics

Simon and Grandpa Steve had a good time at the top of Mt Battie.






































And Simon and Daddy had a good time rolling down the big hill to the harbor!

The Long Awaited Sleepover in Mountain Lakes

We had a fun-filled sleepover in Mountain Lakes. After dinner there was cupcake baking.
















There were lots and lots of tickles from Uncle Robert.
















Where is Uncle Robert anyway?


















And there was serious skepticism about Mama's craft skills. Who could do it better than Aunt Lisi?

Sesame Place Again!

We went back to Sesame Place to use the second day of our tickets from June, and though it was much more crowded we had a great time again. And Simon had this hysterical interaction with Elmo.

Simon was very excited to see Elmo but didn't seem to want to get too close.



















Elmo slowly inched over closer, Simon started to lean away (smiling the whole time), so Elmo leaned over too.






















Then a big hug!























After a very full 6 hours (yes, 6!) of rides, water, slides, bounces, parades, and more- we tail-gated dinner. It was a lovely end to a lovely day.

And to top off all the excitement- Grandma Sue and Grandpa Steve came too!
















Simon had a wealth of grandparents.























Julia, Will, and Grandpa Steve got to hike.
















Thanks Maine! We had a great time!



















The evening we got back to Brooklyn Simon said, "When I am big I'm going to share my house with everybody." We asked, "Where will your house be?" "Oh, in Camden."

Went to the Union fair!























We were there on the first day so Simon got several rides to himself.


















Real lemonade. Mmmmmmmm.













And we weatched sheep get shorn.
