Strolling along

Pete and Tracy let us use their old stroller (pram, as they'd say) while we were visiting N. Ireland. It took me a little while to warm up to it, as you'll see. But I ended up loving it.

Our first morning in town.
Sure, it's 10:00 am here in Belfast, but it's 3:00 am in Denver. Can I go back to bed?!

 

Walking around Kilkeel down in the Mournes

 

Vacations are fun!

Vacation beds

We're back! Dad, Uncle Brady and I went to Montana this past weekend so Dad and Brady could do some fly fishing and I could hang out with Grandma Candy and Grandpa Rick. Mom was off to Chicago on her own trip!

Anyhow, we've still got some Ireland photos to catch up on...

Here's me pleading with Mom and Dad to try sleeping in a grown up bed:

Please?! I promise I won't roll out!

And then I felt like I should actually prove that I could doze off in the big bed:

See? I've got the right skills!

Hiking and potatoes

On our final weekend in Northern Ireland we got to go stay at Al and Helen's cottage down in the Mourne mountains. Pete and the boys came down to hang out with us on Saturday and we all went for a little walk in the woods.

 

Before our hike we struck up a conversation with the potato farmers that were working on the farm neighboring the cottage. They told us to go grab some bags and come back to take some freshly dug potatoes. Well, we were on the way for our walk so we told them we'd stop over when we got back.

When we returned to the cottage we found a not-so-subtle hint saying help yourself to as many as you want...

 The farmers had dropped an entire crate right in front of the cottage's door!

We're home

We got home last night around 7:30 pm and Keillor was very excited to see us. I still don't understand this time zone thing, so I was up a few times during the night. Dad says I need to get my sleep schedule sorted out by this weekend since that's when we head to Montana with Uncle Brady.

We'll have many more pictures to share once we download them from the camera, but in the meantime, here's another from our time at the beach on the north coast.

That's my buddy, Jake, showing us around the beach.

Back from the coast

Well, we've spent the past few days cruising the north coast and we're back to Belfast now. My sleeping patterns are still a tad goofy (like staying up until 10:00 pm) but Mom and Dad say that's ok since it's vacation. We're all having a lot of fun!

Hanging out at the beach.

p.s. Dad says it's hard to resize our photos using the iPad so you'll have to deal with our pictures looking a little too large until he gets to a regular computer.

Jet lag

Mom and Dad keep telling me about this thing called jet lag. No idea what they're talking about. What's the big deal about wanting to play at 1:00 am?!

Another package

We received another package in the mail last week. It was a box!

We're off on our trip tomorrow so Dad's not sure when we'll be able to share photos with you. We'll try to check-in from Northern Ireland!
