Sorry it has been a while since I've posted; I've been busy at work and with home life.
A few weeks ago, we went to the Manderlay Festival in Little River. Porter really enjoyed the petting zoo!

Jason had a change to walk around the city and take some photos. He visited many places but one that I find most interesting are the memorial chairs. It is a tribute to the 185 people killed in the February 2011 earthquake. Another interesting memorial is the World Trade Center "art" that is near a bridge I drive over almost every day. I didn't know you could sell parts of crime scene!?!

We have also been taking Porter swimming a lot and he's loving it! The paddling pool at Hagley Park is now open and it is free...can't beat swimming for free!

Oh, and we can't forget the gardening. Lots to do in the summer!

Also, Porter's sign language and verbal skills are improving.
Sign language - More, Hot, Night Night, and Bird
Verbal - Nose (neh), Ear (eeee), Star, (tar), and Oh No (oh noooo)
