Harvard and Cheers

They filmed a scene from the movie, 'Social Network' at this spot in Harvard

Trying to stay dry under the dumb umbrella

Chilling and staying dry at the Cheers Bar

Today Mommy told me we were going to Boston to walk the Freedom Trail and visit Harvard. She bought us an umbrella while we were there because it was super windy and pouring down rain. It was a dumb umbrella. Everytime the wind blew,  it turned inside out. We got really wet. Daddy had on his expensive shoes and accidentally stepped into two huge puddles while we were walking around Harvard. He was not happy.  Between the gusty wind and pouring rain, Mommy and Daddy decided to cut the day short and hit the bar for lunch. Daddy said we were visiting a well known bar that used to be a set for a famous show called Cheers. I was Cheering when we finally got out of the rain and into a nice dry place!

Eastham

First Encounter Beach

Mommy likes to make sure I'm bundled up well

Daddy and Me

I am working on my 'serious' look. What do you think?

We visited First Encounter Beach where the Pilgrims met the Indians for their very first time. I bet they were surprised to see people of different color and culture. Daddy collected sand in a bottle and is adding it to our collection. He says that when I get older and am studying geology ( whatever that is) I can see the sands from different parts of the world.

Plymouth

Mayflower II

I have the habit of losing my socks...

Captains Quarters

Where the cook did all of his cooking for ALL the passengers and crew

We visited Plymouth and toured the Mayflower II. WOW. I can't believe that there were 102 passengers and 18 crew that sailed on that boat back in the day. It was very small and cramped. It is amazing what people will endure for religious freedom.

Yale

We drove to Hartford, CT. to visit Yale. I was very impressed. Mommy and Daddy said they would love for me to attend either Yale or Harvard, but ALOT of scholarships would be needed. We visited the University's bookstore and Daddy bought me a Yale pendant. We are going to visit Harvard later this week and take pictures of me holding both.

Rhode Island

We drove to Providence, Rhode Island. There was a lot of construction and a marathon  going on so several roads were shut down. It wasn't as pretty as we expected. After eating lunch at UNO's and taking pictures of the capital, Mommy and Daddy decided to head to CT. I was not very happy when I realized I'd have to sit in my carseat for another couple hours. I let Mommy and Daddy know it.

First Airplane Ride

Today I experienced my first plane ride. It was a rough experience. We arrived early to the airport and everything was running smoothly until mommy went to the bathroom to pump. She forgot her phone and didn't hear the announcement that the plane was boarding early. By the time she got out, everyone had already boarded and there was no room left for our carry ons. Mommy was frazzled and forgot to take my teething gel out of her carry on before the flight attendant checked it. I was NOT a happy camper. Teething toys are a nice distraction, but they don't take away the pain. Thankfully the flight attendant felt sorry for me and my parents and  suggested that mommy and daddy put rum on my gums. She bought them 4 shots!!! A little bit of rum on my gums definitely calmed me down, which was a huge relief to my parents and they were able to relax as well.  About half way during the trip I had a huge blow out. Mommy took me into the bathroom which was super tiny and was changing me when all of the sudden there was a bunch of turbulence. The pilot told  everyone to return to their seats, but mommy was stuck trying to wipe all the poop off my back and take my onesie off. It was a rough ride, literally. Luckily there was tailwind and we arrived in Boston an hour earlier than scheduled.

Costume Party

I was going to be a Lion for Halloween, but my parents told me that we would be on vacation in Cape Cod that day and I couldn't pack my costume. I was bummed. Instead they told me I could wear it to a costume party they were attending. Mommy and Daddy were Seahawks Fans and I dressed in my Lion outfit. My costume was really warm so I ended up taking it off. Thankfully mommy came prepared with a Seahawks onesie for me. I ended up joining my parents as a Mini Seahawks Fan instead.
