First Ski Trip to Mammoth, New Year's 2007

For New Year's 2007, Ted went to Aunt Judy's house in Mammoth Mountain, CA to ski. Ok, he didn't ski, bit his mommy, G and Tia Carrie did. Ted stayed home and ate his first food with Meems. He did ride the Gondola and wore his ski suit from Grandfather Williamson. Meems has already taught him that it is not how you ski, but how you look in the Lodge. Many thanks to the Coddings for our fabulous vacation!

Christmas #2 in Nashville, Part 2

Ted loves his playdates with G as much as Palmer Park. A John Deere truck and a t-shirt that says "My Grass is Blue" ...what more could a boy want.

Christmas #2 in Nashville

Ted had a good old time in Nashville with his Tia Carrie, Godfather Richard, Molly and Richard from Hawaii, driving lessons from their son Lucas, and his Great Grandmother Adele.

Christmas in DC, Part 2

Ted loved DC, Owen's jumpy seat, and strolling around town with his cousin Natalie. He also loved the candlelight service and hearing Granny in the choir. He was totally overloaded with presents and got a handmade stocking from Aunt Bess, but all he could talk about was Grandaddy's champagne and caviar.

Christmas in DC

In DC, Ted saw lots of friends: some cousins and some old pals, and he got ready for his first Christmas.

NYC, Part 2--Dumplings and Diamonds

More friends and good times in NYC: from dumplings in Chinatown with Bess, to coffee in the West Village with Leonora, and dinner in Brooklyn with the Evans crew....and all in the same day! The next morning he woke to the good news that Uncle Owen finally snagged that beauty, Molly. Yea!!

First trip to NYC, Dec. 2006

In his first visit to NYC, Ted got up early and stayed out late in order to see a bunch of pals and some of the sights of the city. He went for a walk with Courtney and Natalie at the Reservoir, met Auntie Beth for a Korean lunch in the East Village, and got a new blowfish from Dr. Eamon who dropped by between rocking out and saving lives. He also got to meet Jean and Clinton and play with Bruiser (and Henry, too.) He especially loved to ride the Subway--like father like Son.

Durham Holiday Visit

First stop on the tour was Durham, where we saw Ted's friends Enuma, Thomas, Reynolds, Sunny, Grace and his future friend baby Maxwell (in utero). It was great to visit the crew from St. Luke's, Duke Divinity School and many others not pictured...Uncle Mattie B, the world's bravest babysitters Walt and Katie, Thomas's parents David and Emily, and many others. He thanks everyone for the hospitality (and so do his parents). Durham love yourself!!!

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving brought Ted a family hike in Tilden Park, and some chilling in the courtyard with his friends Stephen and Sam.

Early November

Here, Ted is being attacked by a caterpillar, then chilling with his Mom and Claire, and finally out with Amy, Andrew and Tommy Claire at Lands End in front of the Pacific Ocean.

Wonderful Babysitters

Here is Ted with the babysitters he loves so much: Molly and Melissa, the reasons we are Cal fans, and Midi (visiting the US from Kenya).

Enuma

Ted is enjoying his visit with Auntie Enuma!

LA 2006

Ted made his first trip to LA: visiting his Uncle Chris and Aunt Liezel: 34 weeks pregnant! He spent some times pensively by the pool, then when he got back he watched Mom study.
