Sep 24, 2007 - Papa?

His first word was Mama & not so far distant in second was...well, what do you think? Pam called me at the office as soon as she heard Drex say Papa, so I asked her to go grab the camera quickly & capture the moment.

Sep 21, 2007 - Mama, mama, mama......

Pam heard him say Mama a couple of times few days ago but she said it was rather short unlike this one.

Sep 2, 2007 - Drex' first swing at the park

Sunday afternoon, we decided to check out the park near us. We've been trying to visit the Big Oak Park here in Smyrna, DE but we didn't know how to get there until last week. It's a pretty nice park just a few minutes away from home. We strolled down the boardwalk that goes through a preserved small forest with trees, shrubberies & a strip of stream. Then we stopped at the swing area where Edric had his first experience of the wind against his face while we rocked him back & forth. He was smiling most of the time & really had fun. It's so nice to have easy access to a nearby park where you can unwind, enjoy nature & have a great time with family.

Aug 25, 2007 - Sesame Place

Last week was the first time we brought baby Edric to a theme park. He's been watching the Sesame Street Home Video: Do The Alphabet and ususally giggles more when he sees Baby Bear so we thought he might like seeing them live too. We had a lot of fun and did enjoy the trip. We shared the time with Ellen, Joeram and LJ also. Edric had a great time there as we also cooled off at the Count's Fount wading pool - it was just above 100 degrees F that day. The shows were fun too; Big Bird's Beach Party & Abby Cadabby's Treasure Hunt.



We spent the night in Bensalem, PA just about 10 mins away from the park where we met with the Mnyandus at Extended Stay America. It was great to be with them too. The next day we drove to New York City to visit Grandma & Grandpa.
