Southwick Zoo

We went to Southwick Zoo for the afternoon. I think I was more traumatized then Cullen was. Right after we ate lunch, he was walking down the hill, tripped and fell and smacked his head into the asphalt and got a big ole knot on his head.

And here is where I got a second dose of the trauma, the petting zoo. Supposed to be fun for the whole family..... Get a good look at this goat.....This picture was shot seconds before he got spooked or something and knocked Cullen down and he hit his head--again on whatever that is on the left. A few minutes after this is when we noticed that the goat knocked him down in goat poop.. Eeeewwwwww....

This goat was nicer..

Grandpa and Cullen....

More vacations pics

I am slow, what can I say. Here are some more pics from the vacation to Massachusetts. On Day 2 we made a stop at Toys R Us and tested some bikes and then went to a Walk for Autism. Cullen did a lap with Daddy and Grandpa, and even stopped to do some dancing for the ladies.

Cullen looks so hip in grandpa's glasses!

Cullen's First Race

Cullen participated in his first Fun Run at Grandpa's Race at the YMCA.
While everyone else was out doing the 5k, Cullen just enjoyed playing in the puddles. We were waiting to cheer Becci, Kari, Gloria, Judy and Jeanne in. Way to go guys!
Thankfully it stopped raining just long enough for this event to take place!

Ready, Set, Go Cullen!!!

Hey Mom, where are we going, everyone else is back there??

Hey, this is pretty fun.

We did it!!! And Grandpa was waiting at the finish line to give Cullen his award, even if we did bring up the rear. But he was the youngest one out there, well that wasn't being carried by someone.

WOW!!!

Off to MA

We were up and at 'em at 4:30 AM and out the door by 5 to begin Cullen's first official vacation to see GM and GP in Massachusetts. We stopped at Cabela's and Cracker Barrel in Wheeling and then had lunch in Hershey, PA. Ahhhh, I do love that town.

























Lindsay-- This is for you!!!




And this is where my meltdown began. Here is NYC- WAY TO CLOSE.

.

Followed by the George Washington Bridge... again WAY TO CLOSE... and for those of you actually WANTING to cross this bridge... it's $8 to cross. (I CURSE YAHOO MAPS!)

So in the end it took us longer than anitcipated, but Cullen was such a trooper, unlike me. More to come.

Haircut

Someone was in SERIOUS need of a haircut... can you guess who?
This is what Cullen looked like this past Saturday after waking up from his nap.


And this is what Cullen looks like tonight after Cousin Stephani came over. I can't believe how different it makes him look. We are ready to roll to Massachusetts now!

Happy Easter!

Well Unfortunately, Scott got held over at work..again... He missed the egg hunt and dinner but was able to get home in time for dessert. Grandma hid lots of eggs for Cullen to find, but he figured out a quicker way to get inside of them instead of waiting to open them. If you throw them on the concrete, they pop right open and the candy pops right out.

(This was my desk when I was little.) Cullen has all of his 'important' things in his desk, just like grandpa's...checkbook, phone, key, address labels, paper, and pencils.

I am SOOOO glad this turned out. He would not sit still so i could get a decent pic.
