...and that's why we haven't posted anything in a while. But we're back to the grind and it's time for our first ever "super-post". Grab a snack.

Nik LOVED the beach. So much so, that he claimed this little patch of sand as his.

We made it out to Chatham one day and he got to get in a great workout in the sand.

We headed down to the water to get a better look at the waves hitting the beach.

Nik and his new boat. The aptly named SS Squirt.

Nik and Catherine at Rock Harbor Beach in Orleans. Luckily this place was walking distance from the place we rented.

And if you look closely here, you can see his top two teef coming in. They've been a great source of amusement for him. It's made eating Cheerios a rich new experience.

The Bingham gals made it to Fenway to see Neil Diamond. His sequins temporarily blinded them midway through the 2nd set.

Josie and Nik made it the playground for some time on the swings. This probably looks as uncomfortable as it is.

Grampy got to give both the grandkids a push on the swing...

...before they adjourned to the dome climber.

As you may have noticed, Nik's hair was getting a little bit long. Something had to be done.

Has a kid ever look more unsure of anything?

Still very skeptical......

Utter resignation.

"What does '
it'll grow out ' mean? Should I be worried? "

Well that's it from us for now. We'll be back with a new post in a few weeks. Promise.
