The annual "moose" picture. Last year, Callum was afraid of it. This year, he thoroughly embraced it. Literally. George always dresses up the moose to reflect the season, and this year, Merlin (the name of the ebony moose) was all set to do some fishing. One of the many things we love about Callum and his language is the way he "itemizes" everything. What I mean by that is that, when he talks, he is so complete and thorough in including everything when he says HI or BYE. When we would leave to go to the park or to eat dinner, Callum would start his goodbyes--"bye bye Moose....bye bye Moose bag....bye bye moose hat....bye bye moose fish rod...." and so on...
We took a short hike to "Wonderland," which is about a mile or so of nice, flat woodlands that lead out to a beautiful stretch of harbor just beyond Seawall. I believe that is Cranberry Island in back of us, out to sea (where else would an island be though!?) We loved combing the beach for pretty flat rocks and shiny shells. This was the one place where we let Callum throw rocks, so he was in his glory....
Good family picture.......with a haircut like that, Callum looks like he teaches physics at MIT or something....
Amanda snapped this on the Wonderland trail. Nice picture Sally! The brightness in the background is the trail leading out to the sea. The little guy LOVES sitting up on my shoulders (or, as he calls them, "der-dersh). I thought it looked funny how far over to the right he is up on my shoulders, and when I brought this to Amanda's attention, she said that he always sits like that. Weird. We have an interesting son, I guess.....
Mommy and little boy looking eastward.....out towards the beautiful islands that make downeast Maine so special.....

Hi cALLUM!!!
LOVE AUNTIE
Callum is so teachable and seems to appreciate everything about the outdoors. I love it and he will be so much fun to show things to, like tide pools, sea life, birds and animals, just to name a few. I love it! He's also very cute!!
