A Morning at Dennos

On a cool, clear Wednesday before going to the radio I took the boy to the Dennos Museum. I hadn't been there for some time and Jack had never visited. They let him in for free, I had to pay. I brought the camera along and took some pics.
Here we go...

Grover

If you go back in time to the April entries on this blog there is one from the 23rd of April. We went to Munson on that Monday and the first photo I took and the first that I posted was of a giant, stuffed puppet Grover that my brother gave Jack at Christmas. Gave to the baby at Christmas, cos he didn't have a name then. Well Grover since then has occupied a place in Jack's room, in various spots over time.
The other day while I was changing him I saw Jack looking at Grover and I put the giant blue monster into the crib. When I saw Jack interacting with the puppet I grabbed the camera. The B&W shots turned out a lot better than the color, if you're wondering.

Jack's Cat Fever

Jack has become a lot more mobile of late, not quite crawling but not close. The other day he was motoring around in his usual 360 degree pattern and he saw Nico in the cat bed. He swiftly moved over there and went to "pet" her. Mind you his petting has consisted of grabbing but it seemed with Nico he just wanted to feel. Well one of those hands came down a little hard and she spllit. Luckily I had the camera.





And finally in light of all these mats that have taken over Goo we took him to the vet and had him sedated and shaved!~ This is what he looks like now.

Kejara's Bridge

The Sunday after the Notre Dame game Dad had to leave town very early, Dog emergency, so our plans to goto the organic eatery were shot. Instead we just called up Aunt Susie and headed out to Lake Leelanau to eat at another favorite resturant, Kejara's Bridge. Fantastic place with fantastic peanut butter carrot muffins that are super duper dense and delicious.
I brought the camera but just didn't, these are the only photos I got.
Now as you see in the photos we stopped the car outside of Sutton's Bay as we encountered a flock of turkeys in the road. The pocket camera is good for something!
