The first family baseball game

My company got tickets to see the Lowell Spinners the Thursday before Labor Day. We dressed Jameson up in the Red Sox outfit that Uncle Greg gave him and headed to the field. We meet up with Liz, Doug and Oliver and Jameson started right away trying to grab his friend! By the end of the night Jameson was exhausted and decided to rest on Michelle's arm!

Our Italian Garden

For Father's Day Peyton got a patio tomato plant. We have been trying really hard to grow some tomatoes but the plant kept flipping over and then we would lose all the tomatoes. Finally I staked it to the patio railings and since then it hasn't flipped over. I noticed the other day that we had some nice red tomatoes!
But it isn't just the tomatoes that make it an Italian Garden! Its also the fact that the basil that I planted has finally started to grow!

I wanna play too

For Peyton's birthday Jameson and I bought him a Wii. The other day Peyton was playing and Jameson decided it was his turn.

Mohegan Sun

For Labor Day weekend, Peyton and I headed up to Mohegan Sun while my mom and sisters watched Jameson! If you have never been to the casinos, they are amazing. The insides are so beautifully decorated. We spent the first hour at the Martini bar just watching the sun rise and set and then the stars come out- ok and drinking some wonderful martinis! We then walked around the Casino of the Sky which is open and airy! We then headed over to the Casino of the Earth which is completely different! Its much darker and everything is done in oranges and reds and the air even seems warmer! We had dinner at the Cove which was a sampling menu (there was something from every restaurant on the menu!). We sat right in front of the large wood stove and watched William make pizza! He also gave me some pointers on how to make the perfect pizza and some other yummy meals from Pompeii & Cesar. We gambled some... and walked away with money in our pockets! We had a blast though we were excited to see Jameson the next day!

Peyton's Birthday

We celebrated Peyton's birthday this weekend by having a seafood fest at my parent's house. My mom and I cooked lobsters and clams! Peyton wouldn't put his lobster in the pot of boiling water so I had to do it for him! After it was cooked though he had no problem eating them! Him and my dad at 2 each!

Bubbles

Lately Jameson has been enjoying the tub more then ever! He is really sitting up in his seat and he is grabbing at all the letters that float by! We have started adding bubbles and that has been even more fun! Though most of the bubbles end up in his mouth!

Girls' Night Out

Back in August a few girls got together and went to the Melting Pot for dessert and drinks! While the guys stayed at home, we enjoyed some wonderful drinks, great chocolate and lots of laughs! Some of us even got out palms read!
