Happy Birthday Kaitlyn!

For Kaitlyn’s birthday, we decided to spend the day in Boston.  We started out walking along Newbury Street and then headed to the Public Gardens.

Right after this picture, Kaitlyn tripped, fell, and got a couple of scratches on her hand.Imported Photos 01059 Imported Photos 01060    Imported Photos 01064  Imported Photos 01066 Imported Photos 01067

For some reason, Kaitlyn was more interested in the gigantic squirrels than the geese…Imported Photos 01068  Imported Photos 01070 Imported Photos 01069

Kaitlyn liked the Make Way for Ducklings statues…Imported Photos 01071 Imported Photos 01072 Imported Photos 01073 Imported Photos 01074

Next, we headed to Jacob Wirth’s for lunch.  Kaitlyn had a PB&J, but Kevin and I had the best Weiner Schnitzel and spaezle that I’ve had on this side of the Atlantic…Imported Photos 01076

Whenever we tell Kaitlyn to smile now, she scrunches up her nose and closes her eyes.  I have no idea what started that…Imported Photos 01075

Next we were off to the New England Aquarium…Imported Photos 01128 Imported Photos 01082  Imported Photos 01084  Imported Photos 01086We couldn’t get Kaitlyn to touch any of the starfish in the touch tank…    Imported Photos 01090 Imported Photos 01091     Imported Photos 01096 Imported Photos 01097 Imported Photos 01098 Imported Photos 01099 Imported Photos 01100

Next we were off to the North End for a stop at Mike’s Pastry.  We also took a quick walk through Quincy Market.  Finally, we headed to the Burlington Mall for dinner at the Rainforest Cafe.

Friday was cake and presents day since we were out all day on Thursday.  I didn’t get very many pictures of the presents since I had to help Kaitlyn start opening each present and Kevin was video taping.Imported Photos 01143 Imported Photos 01144 Imported Photos 01145 Imported Photos 01146  Imported Photos 01148 Imported Photos 01149

Finally, Daddy surprised her with an Elmo balloon.  She is still carrying it around this morning…Imported Photos 01058      Imported Photos 01057 Imported Photos 01055

Kaitlyn’s 2 year checkup is on Tuesday.  We can’t wait to hear how much she’s grown!
