Weebles wobble..,

but they don't fall down...




..most of the time.

Getting "refreshing" with Aunt Maggie

Conversation on the way to the pool with Aunt Maggie

Mom: We have to get Maggie a pass when we get to the pool because she isn't a member.

Connor: But Maggie, how do you get refreshing?

Seriously Mom, I'm trying to bathe here

Yuck face

Now that Grace has started eating food (or avocado at least), dinner time at our house is getting pretty messy.

Wedding Portrait

Our friends the Donahues visited over the weekend with their daughter Ella. I can't wait to show this at their rehearsal dinner. 

Lunch of champions

MConnor loves two things at Costco- samples and eating lunch at the picnic tables. Today was a Costco fail as there were no samples out and the tables were all full. I calmed him down with a promise of ice cream for lunch at home. He was pretty happy after a super star lunch of two bites of leftover chicken curry, ice cream, and a sampling of his faves from Costco- pistachios, choc chips, and applesauce. 



We wouldn't want any ice cream to get left behind.


Big brother Connor

Now that Grace is getting a little bigger, Connor is starting to show some interest in her. He's even been asking to hold her.

The many faces of Grace


Looking skeptical
 
Luckily, it's easy to get a smile out of her

First Solid Food

Young Miss Grace has been getting aggressive trying to get at mommy and daddy's food of late, so we decided to give he something to gum while we lunched with some friends. She eventually got bored, but exhibited several minutes of determined mushing. You go girl.

Maybe Buddha Was Right About Reincarnation

On the move

Someone is on the move. She started in the middle of her activity mat, and was completely off it by the time I finished making my coffee.

Grace is less impressed by the Great Lakes

Like every good fishing trip, finished off with a tea party

Mirror, mirror on the activity mat
