This first photo doesn't have anything to do with the rest of this post. NorthernDaddy was playing with the camera one day and thought that this pic turned out neat.
NorthernToddler had a good weekend. Saturday started off with some fishing - just floating some worms under a bobber up at Sand Bar. NorthernToddler caught five fish...all by himself. Pretty good for a three-year-old. He got two perch, a smallmouth bass, and two little sunfish (or as he calls them, pumpkin fish -- his version of pumpkinseed). NorthernDaddy led the group by catching six fish - including the largest. NorthernMommy tried really hard and managed to reel in one fish.
As a side story, NorthernToddler is in the midst of potty-training. An unfortunate 'accident' in the car on the way to the fishing hole made Mommy and Daddy tell Toddler that if he needed to pee, he had to pee on the rocks. A short time later, it was noticed that Toddler's shorts were wet again. When questioned, Toddler said, "But I did pee on the rock - see?!" Sure enough, an investigation showed that Toddler had peed through his underwear and shorts onto a large rock nearby. Hard to argue with his logic....
Saturday evening, the Northerns went to a Vermont Lake Monsters baseball game. Toddler is beginning to understand the game - so he pays attention now - and absolutely loves the team mascot, Champ. Little Man was in heaven: chicken tenders, french fries, a cold drink, and Champ.
Getting rowdy in the stands...
Yup, Mommy got me Dipping Dots.
Fireworks after a smashing win by the home team made things even better!

Sunday, NorthernToddler watched Winnie the Pooh. It was his first-ever trip to a movie theater. Toddler would like to report that he loved the soda, the ginormous tub of popcorn, and the super-comfy-tilty seat. The movie? Eh, not so captivating. Shoulda seen Cowboys and Aliens.

All told, it was a near-perfect weekend.

I absolutely love the pic of Levi getting 'rowdy'. Now one of my all time favorites.
