Everyone is growing and changing

Ben is obsessed with jackets!


Zach has really learned how to build more complicated structures.


And he loves playing ball. I think he'll get a soccer ball for his birthday, cause if Santa brings one, then I'll be saying "No we don't play ball in the house" all winter long.


18 weeks! I can feel little bits of kicking. 20w scan is in 2 weeks and I can't wait!

Tree Hunting!

Well, in a break with all known Tidd tradition, we bought a tree the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Boy was it COLD out!!


Walking on the farm.

Ben's not so sure about this!

Running with Daddy


Ben found one!


The tree!


This place is very civilized. You pick out a tree, go find someone who gives a lift back in a golf cart, and then they cut it, carry it back, wrap it and drill a hole in the bottom.

Fun in November





Well, we are all going along and getting along here. I finally feel better and haven't been to the hospital for almost 10 days! Hurrah! The boys are doing great. You can practically see Ben grow. I swear his face is longer and more grown up in the afternoon than it was just that very morning!


Wiggles and squiggles in the bathtub.


Heading out to Grandmere's. Zach can now unlock the door and let himself out. This is not a good development.


Charlie relaxing at Mom's.


Andrew being an awesome homesteading dad and grinding pork shoulder.

And getting ready to make chicken wings. YUM!

17 weeks! Not much of a belly. I can feel some we small fluttery kicks sometimes.

More Fun in Boston

Two kids playing on a grave. Alas, this isn't one of the family ones in the old Lexington Cemetery


At cousin Joe's

A Texas transplant? Don't believe it, he's a native New Englander.


Boys!!

A Growing Up Boy

Ben is sure growing fast. Every time we turn around he's saying a new work ("bite" for light for example). He tries to do everything his brother does. And succeeds more or less.


We've learned to "feed" ourselves. Or at least bring a spoon and food near our mouth and try.

At the old cemetary in Lexington on our trip to Boston.

We love petons to push!
