Kate and I had a “wig and wine” party to go to for Andy’s 40th Birthday that night. Noah in Kate’s wig.

A bunch of hours later, after the party, and a little after Noah’s bedtime…

…the Red Sox game was still on, Nate was over, and Noah was hopped up on pudding that Nate put chocolate chips in.

A few weeks ago, kicking the soccer ball around a little which turned into “kicking the camera” a little.

Then there was “pretend to have a baby in your tummy”.

Later, meeting up with our ticket dealer in Coney Island before a Brooklyn Cyclones game.

The Cyclones have a new mascot this year, Bucky the Buccaneer, who runs from dugout to dugout when the Cyclones score. When he walked through the stands between innings he saw Jen, his high school english teacher.

After the game we tried to leave before the fireworks started, because Noah still isn’t a fan, but we didn’t quite make it.
