Our camera is broken.....



Which is why we haven't been doing as many blogs as we would like. Perhaps Santa will bring us a new one for Christmas, although we may need to get one sooner. Perhaps our camera being broken has something to do with Callum dropping it in the driveway.....

Well, it is a rainy rainy Saturday evening in Maine....a lot warmer out than it should be for this time of year. Today I had a men's breakfast at church, and then Amanda and I worked outside while Callum napped. Amanda actually put up the Christmas lights on the bushes out front....only to find out our outdoor outlet isnt working! The next few weekends leading up to Thanksgiving will be very busy for us, so we figured we'd put up our lights now.

Here is a "photobooth" picture I took of Jackson and I a couple of weeks ago. The Mac continues to impress, and it even takes nice pictures. Callum can't wait to see his bestie in a couple of weeks.

Callum has these new pajamas that Amanda picked up for him....they are pjs an 80 year old would wear....they are ridiculous... Below, he is giving Amanda some pens....his new favorite activity is going through out "junk drawer" and emptying it out....

I see him every single day, so I dont notice changes as much as others....but even I have to say that Callum looks like he is "changing" physically over the past couple of weeks....like he is looking older. Do you think so? And yes, he is playing with a binder clip....and he did this for like 20 minutes
He might have a tiny little body now, but just you wait....he is going to hit his growth spurt, and before you know it he'll be the starting tight end at the Naval Academy......
And here is 'Ampy, Maine's very own "hospitality mascot." He is inviting you to come and taste all things Maine. One is for Bob, and one is for Twon (he knows you dont drink, Ortiz!)

One more week until the zoo comes!!

Oh my gosh - Callum is so adorable! I love the PJs and he looks so cute in them! Most mainers wear plaid flannels in the winter.
Can you please tell me what a "bestie" is? Sorry about your camera but you'd better get one soon. There's an awful lot of us out there just waiting to see pictures of Callum!

They are NOT 80 year old man pj's!! They are cuddly little boy flannels. And does George have homemade Sangria there?? Yowza, living on the wild side! Love to Amanda and Lynn, Lisa
