Bayfest at North Beach, MD







Ethan and I have been so rapped up in working on this house that we thought we should have some rec time. There are so many festivals and "on going's" that you could just about do something different every weekend. I heard about this Bayfest waterfront festival in North Beach which is about 45-50min drive from our house. We invited another couple and off we went. Since it was right on the water the catch of the day was steamed crabs and shrimp. I was on my own with getting something edible for me to eat. Orrin of course had his milk. It was a beautiful day and everyone had a great time.

Ice cream at local creamy








While both Ethan and Mom were chilrens' they would love to go and get soft serve ice cream at this little shop down the street where Mom lived as a child. Ethan wanted to document the event of Orrin's first time there. He pretty much slept through the whole visit and of course too small to have any icecream. The icecreams were HUGE! By the time I ordered I just got the kiddie version which was a "normal" size cone. It was so cheap, all of us had ice cream for just over $4.00, nothing like living in Derry, PA. We all enjoied our time there.

Aug 10- First Feeding of rice cereal

While we were in Pittsburgh for Ethan's Uncle Waynes' furneal, we decided to start Orrin on rice cereal. Here are his debut pictures on his first encounter with the rice cereal. He did really good. He wasn't sure what to think of the spoon and all but he did eat some like a champ. Go "Scorin' Orrin!!"





Orrin Talking

Orrin is liking hearing his voice. I wanted share it all with you. Yes I know that it is 0400 in the AM but that is a life of a night shift worker. I woke up at 4am and just couldn't sleep so why not blog? The house is quite, the baby is sleeping........ What more could you ask for?

Seeing Family in Florida May 2008



















Ethan had to travel down to Jacksonville for work as you all know; so we took this opportunity to go down as a family since I was still on baby leave. Below as some pictures of our time while we were there. Looking back at these pictures you can see how much Orrin has grown.
