Hot weather

It has been over 90 degrees for a few days here now - much too hot for Kirke to be outside, but Sarah and Alice find time to get outside and enjoy the sunshine.  

Four months old!

She keeps getting bigger!

She keeps getting stronger!

And her fluffy bunny tastes so good!

May flowers

We're trying rather unsuccessfully to teach Alice to only pull the tops off the deadhead flowers, not the blooming ones.

Chicken Stretch!

After some early mishaps, Kirke thinks he's found a new method for teaching Alice to crawl...

Tasty socks

Alice got pretty new dancing socks from her cousins the Lymans. She really likes trying to pull the socks off, but reaching to do so can put some strain on her lower GI tract.

Bath time redux

Grandma Ann was concerned about how upset Alice got with her previous baths, so she found a baby bathtub at a garage sale for us. Alice finds it more comfortable than the sink -- that's for sure -- but I can't get her to sit up straight in it.

Shake, shake, shake!

This video may take some time to download, but it's well worth it -- Alice gets down in the Johnny Jump Up!!

(Not filmed was the large urp-up that immediately followed this bit of spontaneous baby boogie)
