Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

Couple Saturdays ago.

Dumbo and the great new carousel.

Oh hey, a gorilla…

Oh hey! Derby!

Savannah wasn’t into the carousel.

A show. This lady, on the left, drove a nail into her nose. Real kid friendly stuff.

This dude juggled knives on a rope made of toilet paper.

Then there was this.

Done.

Our first morning in Bar Harbor was a foggy one.

After cleaning up we took a quick hike to The Bass Harbor Lighthouse.

Lunch in Northeast Harbor.

Seal Cove.

Chores back at the house.

Great first full day.

Ahh.. Vacation. Here is part one of how it went down.

Lunch time exercise on our drive to Kennebunkport, ME two Friday’s ago.

In New Hampshire we hit some serious rain.

Luckily our campsite was completely dry.

Back at the campsite, Noah in the sleeping bag that Aunt Mindy got him for his birthday.

How did Noah’s first night in the tent go? I’ll tell you tomorrow…

On Tuesday I brought in the cupcakes that Noah and Kate made for a quick (early) birthday party classmates.

It’s a tough time of year for birthday parties. More that half of Noah’s classmates were away or out for the day. It worked out for the kids that were there though, they got bigger goodie bags.

As everyone sang Happy Birthday, Noah pretended to sleep.

Cupcake time.

Audrey, Noah, and Aaron.

Alex and Logan.

Noah as “conductor” as the kids went off the play, and I went back home.

Living in NYC has it’s pluses and minuses. It’s nice that you can hire a ride to the airport, and in that ride can be a car seat saving us the trouble of having to park our car or ask a friend to drive us. A downside of living here is that way too many people live here, making a car hard to find on a Friday evening and making it even hard to find a car with a good car seat. We make do.

“Making do” can lead to car sickness though, so be prepared (I spared you photos of said sickness..).

Fly safe.
