Sunday River Day 2/3

Day two at Sunday River started with Rich moving up to the yellow ski school class.  Although this meant that they took him up the chairlift, he still got to ride the wagon behind the snowmobile most of the day.  I am sure that this part was just as fun as the actual skiing for a 4 year old boy.  After just two days, Rich is skiing the green circles on his own, and he and I got to take our first run together with him skiing the entire run on his own from the top of the chairlift.
Angela went to another day of her ski school (no skiing, just playing) and Donna and I got to ski on our own for a second day.  We had done this just once in the last four years so it was very nice to get out on the mountain together again.  We finished off this great day with a family ride up the chondula. 
The next day we went for a snowshoe hike before we left Maine.  It was a beautiful late winter day for a walk in the woods and Rich got to use his new snowshoes while Angela got to ride on my back.  We used to cover a lot more trail when Rich was also carried, but this was more fun.  I good end to a great vacation.  Won't be our last ski trip.

Oh trust me, the Poop Loop wasn't lost on the 4 year old! It was probably the best part of the hike. It is called that because it is the trail the dogs are allowed on!

Red Sox game with our pal Colton

Image
Another fun baseball game and this one we invited Richie's best bud Colton.  We used to invite our friends and now we invite the kids friends.  Luckily Colton's parents are our friends as well so a good time was had by all.   Since the Red Sox were playing the Yankees, Rich wore the special shirt Babci made for him (half Red Sox half Yankees).  He always gets a lot of attention from it.  And this time Angela really got into the game more than usual.  She was so excited from the second we told her we were going to the game.  She insisted on wearing her Red Sox hat and shirt.  She cracked up everyone on the train because of her outfit and how she just kept yelling about the Red Sox.  Big Papi is her favorite player and she yelled his name the whole game.  Check out the video!

Single Mom - missing Daddy

Image
Since Chris was away again for work, we had our first Mommy/Richie/Angela days. It was a lot of work, but I did it! I guess I can handle 2 kids at once. Here are some pictures of our days so Chris can see what we did and know we missed him. We did lots of extra fun stuff because I was bribing Richie so he would go get a hair cut. Well it worked! He is finally not a shaggy dog and he didn't cry again. I am so glad the meltdowns during hair cuts are gone. That first one was brutal. I will never forget it. Some of our first smiles! (Unfortunately my camera memory card was full so this video got cut off)

Giggles!

Although Angela loves to smile (and does so ALL the time) she has been stingy with the belly laughs. Not this day!! She is totally a daddy's girl and he is the best at making her giggle. Enjoy - it is music to our ears.
