Check out the family resemblance!

Check out the side-by-side pictures of John and his cousin Anna from my sister's blog. I think that the "Spead Gene" is very evident!

Go ahead and laugh mommy! I may actually choose to do my hair this way on purpose some day :)

Brrr! This water is chilly!

That was a GREAT week! I'm want to go camping every week!

Someday, I won't be the shortest!

Make sure to get my better side? Is the light okay? I want this to be as cute as possible!

If only I had top teeth!! Then I could figure out what this actually tastes like!

That was fun! What's next??

A little boat ... made especially for me ... Wow!

I like boats!! Boats are fun!!

Yup, the inside of my eyelids haven't changed. They look the same as the last time I examined them!

Hug, daddy I want a HUG!!

I've got the cutest piggies! All 10 of them! (oh yeah, and that's Bar Harbor in the background)

Daddy ... just you wait until I can talk ... then I won't take this ridiculousness so easily!

Look at these!! Aren't they the cutest rosy cheeks you've ever seen???

Look really closely .... lower righthand corner of the picture ... that's me in there getting some beauty sleep :)

This is great! My own private carriage for the Carriage Trails of Acadia! Drive on Daddy!

Like a true mountain man, I take my baths our in God's great outdoors!

No Dad really, I can drive as long as you do the pedal things!

Mommy, I DARE you to try to keep things out of my mouth this week! I can't wait to try all of the Maine flavor (rocks, dirt, grass, hand railings.....)

Okay, we've seen the cliffs, can we have hot dogs now??

Well, here we are on the cliffs of Acadia ... um, okay it's pretty, but what else is there to do?

I LOVE camping (and so does mommy!!) :)

For me? Oh, you really shouldn't have!

Snuggle time with daddy is the best part of any day!

Something tells me I'll be spending a lot of time on daddy's back in Acadia this week!

Helping daddy pack for our first long family camping trip ... I can hardly wait for S'mores!

0.666666667 of a year old already! I feel like such an almost-toddler :)

My public ADORES me!!

"Really, and then what happened?"

This isn't what it look like! I was merely examining the inner surface of my eyelids for an extended period of time! Really!

Giddy-up Daddy! Giddy-up Uncle Scott!

How about this? I get carried around in my own little seat - just like the kings of old!

My first camping trip! With mommy, daddy, Uncle Scott, Aunt Crystal and my friend Daniel Whaley :)

BOING!!!!

No Grandpa, I want that over there!!

I'm excited because .... I'm EXCITED!!

Well, my cranium is almost big enough for this thing....

Oh no ... I forgot my tie for Uncle Brian's graduation!!

Helping mommy in the yard is such great fun!

Guess where I'm going when I grow up?

I'm ready for my interview with Baby GQ magazine :)

When I grow up, I want to be Santa Clause! (I think I'm jolly enough and I have rosy cheeks)

I enjoy being the little dapper fellow with grandma Spead :)

He's GOT me!! And it tickles!!

Mommy, you're embarrassing me !!! (blush)

FINALLY - I found a comfortable sleeping position ... Zzzzzzz

I think sometimes I am too shy in front of the camera ;)

This is SOOO much fun!!

Let's go swimming!!!
