Last weekend, we went to Monmouth Horse Race track. Saw a bunch of horses run around a track, but the highlight of that trip was the tractors that cleaned off the track (of course). Yesterday, we went to have lunch in the city with Daddy and then played in the park. Then, today, we went to the zoo. There aren't many pictures of that, but Ed got to ride a little train and a carousel and see lots of animals! The farm animals were the only ones he really cared about though.

family picture in front of the horses. Ed was tired, hence the look.

Riding the carousel- didn't like it at all as you can see. After this picture, he started crying. So, I got him off the horse and held him the rest of the ride.

 Riding the little train. It was hard to get him to look at the camera. Look at that belly!

Here is a video of Ed playing outside with the popper that Annie and Pawpaw gave him for his birthday.

August Days

Here are just some random pictures taken from the past couple weeks. We are counting down the days until our trip to Nashville! See you soon!

Ed at the playground in Battery Park, Manhattan- best park ever!  Luckily, I dodged the sprinkler section without letting Ed see them! I wasn't prepared for those. Next time we will bring extra clothes so he can play in the water. Ed was just happy playing in the sand though.
