I am so excited to be getting caught up and this last post is not even a week behind;) Last weekend we took our annual Glidden Family trip to New Hampshire to visit Santa's Village and Storyland. It was very hot, but the water park they have added to Santa's Village made it much more tolerable. Benjamin loved the train, and this picture of him on the train makes me laugh every time, this was really a scream of joy! James's favorite part was that he was finally big enough to ride on the roller coaster..... he was beyond thrilled and his enthusiasm was enough to convince Noah to go on too. They each had one ride and thought it was enough, but we will take it! James also loved feeding the reindeer and both N & J loved talking to Santa. Benjamin liked Santa ok at first, but as soon as Trey stopped crying Ben started, so we at least got one of those classic "baby screaming in fear" pictures with Santa.
At Storyland both Noah and James thought that visiting Cinderella was their favorite part. We hadn't done this before because I didn't think they would care about it and therefore wasn't worth the effort to trek up to the castle..... how wrong I was. This is a nice picture of them with Cinderella, but I also have pictures of each of them hugging her and one where James is staring at her with a huge smile on his face:) Benjamin enjoyed himself in the ball pit... he is such a cute and happy guy!
The bottom few pictures are of the last day of swimming lessons for Noah and James of the summer. They have both done so well! James did as well as we could expect for being 3 and not a great listener. Noah is finally putting some things together and getting over his fears. It was nice to be home and get everyone readjusted over the past few days. Benjamin turned 11 months and has entered a very dangerous phase... he is on target with the the other two for his age developmentally, but the fact that he is so tall is really causing some issues. He is tall enough to open the oven, reach the top of the stove/cupboards/table and really anything else you can imagine...... He has continual bruises to his forehead from trying so hard to keep up with his brothers and get into everything they are... this will be interesting over the next several months;)
