Big Sister In Training

My cousin Alexander's baptism was yesterday in Boston, and in addition to meeting Alexander, I was also able to meet my "newest" cousins Chris and Zoe - the twins! They're just under a month old. That's me with Zoe in the picture. Meeting and interacting with Chris and Zoe provided me a terrific opportunity to develop my "big sister" skills. Mommy and Baba said I did a great job playing with and helping take care of Chris and Zoe. I'm getting more and more excited about becoming a big sister in early September.

Fun at the beach (and the pool!)





We visited family in Connecticut a couple of weekends ago (sorry for my delay in posting this!) - Aunt Diane, Uncle Marky, Aunt Michele, Uncle Mark and Cousin Jack. I had so much fun! We went to the beach (that water was cold), played in the pool (that water was warm) and just hung out at the beach club (that was just right!).

Happy 4th!

Summer's here! Happy Independence Day, everybody! Lazy weekend for us. Spent Saturday morning at the Troy Farmer's Market (the BEST farmer's market in the Northeast!). My personal word association with "farmer's market" usually includes "boats" and "water." For those familiar with the location of the Troy Farmer's Market - this makes sense - for those not familiar with this particular market, you likely think I'm terribly confuse. Suffice it to say that the Troy market takes place steps from the Hudson River, thus "boats" and "water." I saw a lot of both on Saturday morning! Sunday was a wash-out - we got drenched going to church! Today was a gorgeous Fourth of July which included, among many summery types of things (eg: barbecuing, lounging outside, eating cherry pie), running through the sprinkler! Good times. Thanks for joining me Baba!
