Abigael!

Abby and her mom and dad came to visit! Julia was thrilled to see her friend. From the pictures, it looks like she can't quite believe it's really Abigael! The girls enjoyed playing together and having a snack. It's hard to believe how big they've gotten since playdate #1!

Memorial Day at Treman Park

We spent a lovely afternoon at Robert Treman Park during Memorial Day weekend. Julia loved splashing in the pool at the base of the waterfall. She certainly didn't mind going into deeper water, either. The girl loves to wade around!

And thank you, Grandma Cindy, for the super swimsuit! The little tee-shirt top keeps our fair girl from getting too much sun, and the little skirt is too cute. We should probably buy stock in baby sunscreen. We go through enough of it!

Jujubee's June 2010...

Here are some pictures from Jujubee's June. We went to RI for Auntie Julia's bridal shower and spent a few days on Cape Cod. Jujubee LOVES the beach! Especially the water. We might need to get her a little life jacket for unexpected runs into the ocean. She has little regard for the powerful sea. :)

Silly with her spoon

Julia's getting pretty good using her spoon for cereal, soup, yogurt, and other such things. You might not see that from this video, though.

May Pictures

Here are some photos from May 2010, including some from Mothers' Day Brunch at the Statler. What a treat! Thanks, Bill & Jujubee!!!

MAY 2010 PICS

Spring Playtime

Here's a (long) video of Julia playing in the backyard. She has a new stroller for her "baby," and it's a pretty good substitute for pushing her own stroller- which she loves to do at the most inopportune times. And she loves "more" w/Daddy. He created a bit of a monster when he started tossing her in the air to play. She can't get enough of it now!

And her cutey-patootie outfit, complete with matching hat, is from Grandma's friend Nancy. Thank you, Nancy! We get a ton of compliments when we're out and about town!

Julia's Squinty Smile

Julia's gotten the idea that she has to squint her eyes when she smiles. It's pretty goofy! Here's a short clip from our trip from Ithaca to RI for a visit in May.

Julia, Poppop, and Tucker

Julia likes helping her Poppop take Tucker for a walk. She's not terribly attentive to holding the leash, though.

Haddon Family Visit

The Haddon Family came all of the way from Maine to visit Ithaca in late April. Henry made quite an impression on Julia- and vice-versa! It was great to spend time with such dear friends with such nice weather.
