New Pics & Updates

WHAT A GREAT WEEK!
3 days in the last week Genna (a mere 7wks old) slept 6-7 hours at night! What a good girl!
AND.....Maya is getting the hang of potty training. We've had 2 days of great success (oh, that reminds me, I have to put jelly beans on the shopping list)
6/15/10 Update - Genna's long night sleeps may have been a fluke... no repeats lately.  But Maya's potty progress is awesome!  Hardly any accidents all week and she's only in dipes for sleeps & outings.
Adorable, yes.... but Papa is getting tired of being stopped by curl admirers when he's out with our cutie. With our new family schedule, her weekly bath quota has declined sharply.... and hair brushing along with it. It is getting difficult to comb through and the humidity doesn't help. Today Papa asked her if she wanted dreadlocks. She replied with an enthusiastic "YES" but I think she assumed a dreadlock was something to eat.
Strawberry Sissies (Maya loves the scrawberwee jammies from Grandma)

Picking Berries with Babcia
Grandpa visited after the Indy 500
The Crib is still Maya's, but sometimes Genna gets to cuddle & play in there. Maya's naps are still so great, I'd hate to mess that up with a furniture switch-a-roo.
We had a great trip to Chicago with Grand-ma-ma Glista.
Baby Cousin Seraphina's Christening Party
(do you notice a pattern in Tom's behavior at family parties? Above: June 2010, Below: November 2007 @ Becky's Baby Shower). To be fair to Tom - If I had a photo record of Jeff at such events, he'd be in the same boat.


Mama's-Eye-View of Baby's First Smiles. She is supposed to be eating breakfast.... but prefers having a smiling contest with Mama - she wins!
