NH Post #1: Baby Pete & Windsor, VT

This time when we went to NH we were able to swing by ol' Windsor, VT to see baby Pete. This is the first baby for a couple I will call Mikris just for kicks. Baby Pete really is one of the cutest babies I have ever seen-tiny and perfect in every way. He has a great disposition and was a real champ when the kids all had a turn holding him and unwrapping him to see his little feetsies. He didn't even make a peep when he went for a swim with his pah-pah.
Of course it was fun to see his parents as well who do not at all seem like first time parents. They look too fit and are much to active hiking around, seeing movies and concerts to be new parents. I guess some people just figure it out faster than others and by others I mean me. It took me four kids to get to that sort of level! They took us to see a beautiful little river with several cool little rock towers.
I decided to post a picture of Ed so you can see how manly he was at the river throwing rocks in his sisters rainbow snoopy shirt. He loves that shirt-but again he was throwing rocks for sometime just like any other manly boy.
We really did have a great time and the girls miss baby Pete already-so Mike and Chris if you are ever looking for somebody to take him...
We also went swimming and Maya did some very impressive...leaps and pirouettes off the diving board. I would have and probably should have taken some pictures but they wouldn't have turned out so well since I usually had to squeeze my eyes shut, wince and turn my head away every time she jumped. It was only a matter of time before her luck ran out and that 1/4cm clearance she had wouldn't be quite enough to clear the board. So, thank you Mikris for the good times and hopefully we will see you again before baby Pete is Toddler Pete.

They sure are cute photos of Baby Pete and your children. I really miss having you guys around. I mentioned to Pete that when we are in the States, NEXT Year, we must visit you again, maybe we could bring Baby Pete for a visit and give Mike and Chris a brreak for a few days. I wonder how he would go with us taking him away from his parents ... I am wondering if he will even like us ...
