Summer of Fun!


Summer is finally here! Despite the heat and humidity we still go outside to enjoy the sun and summer activities. Naturally we don't go out of the house without smearing on a good layer of sunscreen, and because of that, Miri now takes many more baths at night to wash it off. I think the extra baths are what Miri likes most about summer.

She also loves her trips to her favourite park that's just a few blocks away. If she isn't swinging high on the swing set, then you'll find her bouncing away on the four seat spring-mounted "sea saw". She'll point to what she wants to do and say "ah deux! ah deux!". And if you ask her if she'd like to do a certain ride she'll shake her head yes or no. Her vocabulary and understanding is growing big now and she's even trying to say some words at times!

Mimi and Popop visited recently and had lots of fun with Miri. Miri loved having them around to play with. Some of the pictures here are of the visit, and the rest are of Summer Fun!

There's a new biker in the family! I wonder how it's going for Aunt Smelly The Biker Chick. Miri will be happy now that you can join her while she tears up the floor on her car. :)

Slumber Party with Grandma


Recently Grandma flew up from Florida for a visit and to watch Miri for a couple of nights while Stef and I went to her college reunion. Oberlin was fantastic and we had the best trip. I had a great time touring the campus and hanging out with some of Stef's great friends. Stefie's college experience definitly beats the pants off of mine.

Meanwhile, back in DC Miri and Grandma were having the best time. Their three days couldn't have been any more fun for Miri... or Grandma for that matter. Click here to see some pictures of their time together and of other springtime activities.
