These pictures are from early last fall or late last summer. We had a blast taking the kids to the playground on Castle Island. It brought back all kinds of childhood memories for me. We’ll have to go back and enjoy some Sully’s clamstrips.

This little group of pictures is from last January when my mother called and invited us out to Chili’s. It seems she had about thirty $5 gift cards that she received from various mortgage brokers and banks over the past few months. So, from all of us at the Rushton household, thanks!

You can date these pictures because of Lex’s teeth. Note that he only has four at the moment in this picture, but has a good eight now and a few more cutting.

Here are some pictures my sister, Lauren, took last time she went to Taiwan back in the summer of ‘02. I’ve yet to send them to her after she returned my camera with all of these pictures. So, Lauren, here is a belated gift. I think the first picture in the gallery, the rainbow one, is one I took from the back door of our old house on DeCota Drive. I’m not sure though, and since it was in the same bundle as Lauren’s pictures, I’ll just pretend she took it!

Here is a gallery of some pictures of Alexander’s Christening, May 2004.

Lex likes to play with all of his brother’s toys, especially the colorful ones. He’s really starting to hold himself up pretty well at five months.

Alexander was Baptized on May 16, 2004 at St. Mary’s Church. This time everything went off without a hitch (no ambulance rides for mom!). Winifred and Uncle Frankie accepted the duty of God Parents. Alexander is wearing the Baptismal Gown that Peter wore, as well as Winifred and Uncle Frankie’s Boys.
