A Walk Down Memory Lane - 2007

Here's a glimpse into the last 9 months since Nehemiah was born.

April
Nehemiah James Vice made his grand entrance on April 1, 2007 at 2:08 p.m., weighing in at 8 pounds 3 ounces, 21 1/2 inches long. A fitting birth date for the son of Travis. Even my mom had to ask if we were really at the hospital or if Travis was playing an April Fools Day joke.
May
Needing to get out of the house after a month with a newborn, we decided to go on a day trip to Multnomah Falls. We started up and made it to the bridge. That wasn't hard, so we figured we'd keep on going. After we were about halfway to the top we realized we'd made a bad choice. Flip flops, a little baby in a bjorn and hiking aren't the best combo. But we couldn't turn back- not after already climbing so far. We did make it!


First Smiles


June

To the beach , and cousin Phoebe was born


First trip to the zoo, and Rose Festival.


July
We went on family vacations to the beach with both sides of the family. It was a lot of fun and a great time with all the kids. Nehemiah has six cousins, two of which are younger than him.

August
Annual camping trip to Silver Creek Falls to celebrate MeMe's birthday.



September

Yummmm



First Flight ----------------------------------------- In Boston Commons

Nehemiah and I went to Boston to visit the Roths. We had a blast, but were tired after so much sightseeing. We walked the Freedom Trail in downtown Boston, visited Cambridge (Harvard and my school, Lesley University), stayed in Cape Cod, rode a ferry to Martha's Vineyard, walked the campus at Gordon-Conwell, talked, laughed, and just enjoyed being family.

The Roths (my sis and her fam) -----------------------------Cousins Phoebe and Asher
October
This month was filled with new adventures. Nehemiah took a music class at Gymboree, we went to storytimes, and puppet shows. This was all homework for one of my graduate classes. We had a blast!
Little Dragon for Halloween
--------------------------------------------------------Ofcourse the bell went straight to the mouth.
November
I think this was when my camera wasn't working right.
December
Our Little Elf
It was a fun first Christmas. Nehemiah thought his wrapped gifts made great drums. He would have been happy without even opening them.

I love it! What a good recap of the last 9 months. It has gone by so fast! Can't wait for more of the Vice Version.
