My Big Trip - Day Four - The Big City

First, we walked around the Big City.  They aren't kidding when they call it that - I had to crane my neck every which way so that I could see everything.





I loved watching the cards, bikes, buses, taxis, horses! and ambulances.


Then, I got to stretch my legs a little at Bryant Park...






...and ride a carousel. 



More car watching.


I am the official pointer-outer of birds, lights or flags.  Here I am in action.


Lights in the Big City! 


Leah and I tie as the official silly representative.  I am doing a pretty good job here! 


 I love making elevators even more fun and pretending they are roller coasters.


My Big Trip - Day Three - A Bow Tie Affair








See you at the dance floor!

My Big Trip - Day Two - Port Jefferson



Man, this stuff is tasty! "Yum!"


I really liked looking at the sun's reflection in the water.



My Big Trip - Day One - Traveling




We traveled all day to get to New York, but I didn't mind.  I loved making friends with everyone on the plane, getting to eat special treats and looking out the window of the plane.  I started my nap before we took off our second flight, when we awoke and Mom pulled up the window shade I said "Up, up" because I could tell we were high in the sky!  I am an expert airplane spotter when I am on the ground, so it was fun to be the one in the clouds this time.

Carter's Chronicles - 1 Year Old!

I can't believe how fast one year went!  Here is what has been happening this past month:

Walking 

I took my first set of multiple steps on April 27th.  Now look at how fast I can walk!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrtsReSJ5QU&feature=youtu.be

Climbing

This is me on May 5th...I love to climb up on anything and everything, as you can see.


Snacking

I am pretty sure I could just snack my way through an entire day (that's me with my favorite fruit - blackberries).


And sometimes, if I am hungry, I take matters into my own hands and get a snack from our garden myself.  Fresh tomatoes really do hit the spot.
