Last week

Hot day...heading to the lake

Coda with one of Calia's babies
Huh?
Because sometimes you just want to wear the bib all day.

Swinging

Hanging out
Taking turns on the slide
Watching the Wiggles
A Wiggly Trance

Rick, Marcy and Brynna came down to visit on Saturday. Rick and Kevin went biking (big shock) leaving Marcy and I to chase after the two girls. "Keya" as Bryanna called Calia and "Ninnah" as Calia called Brynna were so cute together. They played near each other, but not with each otehr for a bit, then after lunch and the clothes came off, they were a hoot. Watching the Wiggles, dancing, playing, until it was time for Brynna to go. Parting is such sweet sorrow.

Ben and the Children's Museum

Playing in the tide pool...

which quickly turned into a splash fest!

Last week, my friend Amy and I decided to take Ben (her son) and Calia to the Children's Museum. It had been 4 months since Calia had been. Ben was shy at first, while Calia ran like a lunatic from one thing to the next. Here are some pictures. It was bittersweet because Amy, Josh, and Ben are moving to Durham, NC this Friday for Josh's fellowship in Neuro Radiology. We'll miss them all terribly, but can't wait to go visit and really can't wait for them to be back and settled in Boston in 2008!

Calia loves Baseball!

Since Kevin is spending most of his spare time finishing the deck (the floor is down and all but one of the railings!!), Calia and I have been going to my friend Heather's son Brendan's little league games. Calia hangs on the fence, smiling at all the 10-12 year old boys, she claps right along with everyone else. Then, she noticed when she turns around, she has an audience, sitting nicely on bleachers looking at her. The show then begins with the funny faces. Quite a ham, that Bubba is!

Just another day...

Accessorized and ready to go!

Chillin' at Sebago Lake...

Calia actually stipped down to her birthday suit and ran into the freezing water.
I love Popsicles!!

Bikes and Babies

One leg at a time...

Come on, Mommy!!! My feet barely touch the pedals!Look baby, a bird...and a fish.
Calia is such a loving mommy to her babies.

A busy Saturday...

After a quick breakfast...

...we caught the Westbrook Together Days Parade

at my Great Aunt Themia's house with lots of family...

...Kevin and I got ready for our friend's, Bill and Mary, wedding...
......and had a wonderful day hanging out with our close friends, while Calia spent the day and night with her Yiayia and Papa.

New seat??

Memorial Day

First popsicle...

Since it was such a hot day and Calia was still grimey from our trip to the lake (lotion, sand, water), I decided it was time for the first popsicle of the season and her life....

The first lick...

Coda waiting patiently, while Calia chomped away.
Love it...
...except when it melted to fast and fell off the stick.

Calia kept trying to pick it up and put it back on the stick.

First trip to the lake for Summer 2007!

Ready to go

Playing with Daddy in the water...eating sand?
That face!
What a good Daddy taking her for a float ride.
Out like a light on the way home...

Then, she took an almost 5 hour nap!
