Nolan's Newstand: August 2012

16 Months

Nolan's sixteenth month flew by! We took a couple vacations during this time so I think that is what made it go by so quick. We have really noticed his personality coming out during this time, and boy does this kid have a ton of energy!

One Last Summer Weekend

Five days after we returned from Bermuda, we headed to Martha's Vineyard for one last long weekend of summer. We spent the time at the beach relaxing, enjoying some adult beverages, and enjoying the last bits of summer before the craziness of the school year begins.

Perfect form

Good times on the swings

The Forbes family owns an island off the coast of Martha's Vineyard that is only accessible by boat. We headed over there for a day of sun, sand, and fun. One of the cool things about the island is that there are cows that roam around and even hang out in the ocean, which we got to see!

Nap time!

On our final day in the Vineyard, Nolan rode the Flying Horses. He has been on it every time we have been out there since he was 3 months old, but I think he finally enjoyed it this year!

Bermuda...Part 4

On our final day in Bermuda, Ryan and I decided to take Nolan and head over to St. George's. Ryan had heard there was a beach there where you could collect sea glass. We set off hoping to find it. Our journey started off rocky once we got to St. George's as we started trekking through the tiny streets hoping to find the beach. Once we got there, though, it was well worth it. There were a couple locals at the beach and us. It was beautiful and Ryan was able to collect a bunch of sea glass. We sailed out of Bermuda at 5 pm that evening and had one more full day at sea before getting back to New York. It was a great trip and we are happy that Nolan enjoyed it so much!
