March Madness

As usual, Leah is keeping up with a dizzying social schedule. In the past few weeks, she has spent time with her Gholson cousins (photos to follow soon!), and had several play dates. Leah's favorite girl cousin is Sophie - by a mile. Now that Leah is more animated, Sophie is returning the attention in spades. Below you can see the girls getting some snuggle time.



Here is Leah hanging out with Aunt Elaine at brunch.

Leah had lunch with Micah & Jonah - two older men in one date!


Leah is continuing to expand her culinary horizons. She has added yogurt, and the all important bagel (for teething purposes) to her repetoire this week. We are trying to get outside more, since the weather is warming up nicely. We should have a relatively quiet few weeks ahead, but will share the highlights when we can. - J

Beach Bum

Finally! Leah's first ever trip to the beach has been blogged! Of course there are MANY more photos than this, but I almost crashed the whole slide show application trying to include them all. Below are the highlights. Leah was a superstar for her first plane ride. You will see that Leah's first experiences at the beach and pool had some ups and downs. Mommy & Daddy didn't plan the beach well, and arrived very close to Leah's nap time. Combine that, with the fact that Leah sleeps to ocean sounds every night (naps too), and the sound of the real ocean put her over the top. She cried, and then sacked out in the stroller. The first dip in the pool was also not smile-filled, but Leah's confidence grew with each additional swim. You will also note that she had one bathing suit for each swim - what a fashion plate! While we were in FL, Leah also got a chance to meet Mommy's friends, the Burton family. She and Andrew had a great time watching each other over lunch. One more first that we were able to squeeze in was the first shower. Leah seemed to enjoy it once she got the hang of it. Thanks again for a great time Bubbe & Honey!!

If you have a huge desire to see the rest of the pics, let me know. I can e-mail a link to anyone who wants it. - J
