Conant's Farm
Today the Richmond playgroup went to Conant's Farm, a local dairy farm here in VT, so we thought we'd check it out. Very interesting learning about how cows are raised and milked, and Braden especially liked the tractor and the mud puddles!


Baby cows less than two weeks old!

The milking room...

I know I know, we've GOT to get rid of this binky!!!! After the baby...

Blueberry Season
A new experience for us...picking blueberrys! Vermont's all about the organic fresh fruits and veggies, so we thought we'd go to the farm to see what it's all about. Braden actually really enjoyed picking the blueberrys, and he learned quickly that the green ones are yucky!

Must find the perfect ones...gotta be out here somewhere...

A new game...how many blueberrys can I stuff in my mouth at once?!?

Check out our collection!! We filled the whole thing up before we left!

The funny thing is that Braden doesn't actually seem to like blueberrys! He ate tons of them at the farm, but at home (after they're actually washed and put on his plate) he won't touch them! Terrible twos, anyone?!?

Early Birthday for Braden
If you can't tell from the video, Braden says Thank you! We'll get lots of use out of the soccer ball and goals this summer I'm sure!
One reason I posted this was for you to see how good his words/talking is getting...looks like I'm going to have to start carrying around the video camera more often!

Carter's first photo op
3-D video:
Today the Flight Doc hooked us up...free 3-d ultrasound of Carter!!
He is approximately 4lbs 7oz now, has all his fingers and toes, some hair, and is already spectacularly handsome!!
Scott and I agree...looks like Braden!!!
Here he is wiggling his little toes...right by his face!



Can wait to meet this little cutie in person!

Braden's busy weekend
Lunching with the ladies on Saturday...
On Sunday a trip to the Sand Bar Beach for some fun in the sun/sand with friends!
Even sharing the toys with Sawyer...so nice when he plays nice!!
On weekends like this when Scott is on alert in the squadron (where he can't leave), we definitely miss him but do our best to have fun with new friends instead. We usually visit him at work when possible...on Sunday afternoon he taught Braden how to eject from a jet--a skill we hope no one in the family ever really needs!

Getting Carter's Room Ready
What a great big brother...and Daddy...Braden is officially done with the crib and so he helped Scott get it set up in the baby's room last weekend!



**note: the room is not finished...still need the final decorative touches, but thought I'd post the status so far :) I still have seven weeks, no rush!!

Photographic evidence...there IS a beach in VERMONT!!
Today we woke up to a beautiful sunny day, so we decided to check out the much talked about North Beach (on Lake Champlain)...which, I have to admit, as a California girl, I was skeptical even existed. But, here it is! Very very nice! Perfect for little kids too. I only got a few pictures, and as you can tell, Braden was too busy to stop playing to smile for the camera :)
