An apple a day...

I love Jamaica Plain. I love that there is so much green space to explore (especially with the downtown as close as it is). I also really love learning things about Jamaica Plain and it is always fun hanging with Katie and her gals in part because I always learn something new about my home. Yesterday, I learned that the zoo has not always been where it is now and that the cool structures in Franklin Park were former bear cages. Who knew?

Yesterday was a perfect September day. Still warm and sunny but perfect for exploring the outdoors. I loved the way in which these two explored in such different ways. I also loved watching them 'wrestle' with each other. Ah - sisters.

This little guy is already the coolest kid on the block -- not only was he born at home but he has amazing parents (who are totally in love with him) and will, no doubt, be playing guitar, riding motorcycles and rock climbing by the time he is 5. Most of these pictures were taken when this little person was just 36 hours old! He was so alert and completely enthralled with everything happening around him - he did not want to miss one minute!
