Vacation



Here's a picture of Henry before we left in his special new corner. He's always getting stuck here somehow.

Yesterday we returned from our mini-vacation. It was great, cheap too! We stayed on Cape Cod at a house owned by a friend of ours. We went on some nice walks with Henry (not so nice when he was crying, but we survived) and took him to the beach twice. We went to the beach in the evening so the sun wasn't as harsh. He seemed to like it and was pretty content there. He also liked the new toys and ceiling fans at the house and we appreciated all of the baby equipment that was already there. I think our first family vacation was a good success. Just being in a different location for a few days was relaxing for the two of us.



Henry and Meg at sunset. Henry likes to chew the straps on this backpack.



Henry in a kid chair. We'll have to get him one of these.



This is Henry during a picnic we had on the beach.



Henry pulled all of these books down. Fortunately it wasn't on top of him.

I searched some coin last night. 6,000 hand rolled pennies produced fifteen Wheats, fourteen Canadians, and two US dimes. The Wheats were:

1936, 1937, 1942, 1944, 1944S, 1945, 1948, 1949, 1951D,1952, 1956, 1956D(2), 1957D, 1958D

Found: 2 pennies (at Stop & Shop), 1 nickel (at Stop & Shop), 5 dimes (4 at Stop & Shop, 1 near our house on the street)

Redeemed: $14.60

Like that chair! And it looks like Henry's going to be an avid reader too.
