Another fantastic three-day weekend, and was it ever a beauty. Warm and blue skies and turning leaves. A perfect autumn weekend in Maine. As you can see, my parents visited for the weekend, making the 11 hour drive from Rochester. We managed to squeeze in a lot of activity, including practical stuff (insulating the new bathroom, installing the dishwasher (hooray!)), and fun stuff too. We tried to get into the park every day. On Saturday, we hiked the Witch Hole Pond Loop, Saturday it was Day Mountain (a beauty neither Tara nor I had done), and Sunday was a seaside hike from Otter Point to Thunder Hole. The tide was high so Thunder Hole wasn't exactly thundering. But that didn't stop the bus throngs from gathering at the top of the Thunderhole walk-down - digital cameras ready - to snap that perfect shot of splashing seawater. It was a rather hilarious sight.
In less positive news, Liam has not been sleeping all that well of late. It seems like he is up every hour, crying for food. Tara had been feeding him, but we decided today to get him started on solid food a little early - rice cereal, and he seemed to like it. Milk alone didn't seem to be satiating him, and maybe a little bit of rice cereal will stick to the ribs and allow him to sleep. Will have to post pics of the first solid food tomorrow. I take it for granted that he only knows how to eat one way - suction. This whole chewing thing is more like swishing the cereal arounnd in his mouth, and kind of swallowing half (or hiding it in the crease of their neck). T will post some pictures tomorrow.
