My cousins: Beth and Chrissie
William all dressed up and ready to go...somewhere, anywhere
Favorite activity: climbing up the stairs used during the ceremony

After the wedding reception, we had time for a little dip in the pool - William's first time swimming! He was a little unsure at first!
But, once we were in, he had a great time! Swimming lessons next year? We'll see!
Swimming/drinking the water
Brrr...mama is cold! Is it time to get out yet? William says NO!
On Sunday morning, we had breakfast with the family and then spent some hanging out in Newport. Here is some of what we did:
Took a cliff walk. A lot like it sounds. Walking along the coastline.
(Turn your head) We toured the Breakers mansion, formerly owned by the Vanderbuilts
The Breakers from the back (by the way, this was their summer cottage)
Kevin drives, Kim navigates...
William eats
A drive along the coast at sunset....
William kisses himself in the mirror
Newport road sign : Yes, your butt is litter!
Monday morning, we squeezed in a little historical walking tour. The tourist information center was out of the tour materials, so the person working there just gave us directions. So, here is some historical stuff. We're not really sure what or why some of it is historical, but it is according to the tourist person. This is the Quaker Meeting House built in 16something.
This is the colony house built in 17something
The Hazard house...
This is Trinity Church. It has a very old cemetery next to the building.
The old stone mill in a park.
How William currently feels about history. Yes, we know he is missing a shoe.
Back to the beach!
William wanted to take a dip into the Atlantic Ocean. We agreed, but only his toes!

It was hard to get ONLY his feet wet without getting mine also!
Sandy toes
The empty beach
Outside our room in Newport
Playing peek-a-boo in the car while he was supposed to be napping...can you see him anywhere?
We had a little time before we had to be at the airport, so we decided to check out the U.S.S. Constitution. It was closed, so we went to Bunker Hill.

It took my legs several days to recover from the 294 steps, or Kelly was it 249?
