More Great Guests!


"Who is that handsome guy? Is he my uncle too?"
Cecilia had another uncle siting this week! That's 2 down, 2 to go.......


Uncle Seth tries out the hooter hider.


Nellie and Cecilia hit it off, enjoying these tongue exercises and a few newly learned Tectonic dance moves.


Once again we put our guests to work.


Thank you guys for all of your help and love!

This blog has been renamed The Exciting Life of Cecilia - With Sporadic Parental Appearances

First Encounter with Uncle Brandon

So Fascinating!

Another Great Daddy-Daughter Shot

Growing Contest- Cecilia ahead by a hair


Trevor can't wait until Cecilia can help out with yard work. Cecilia is not so thrilled.


At least Trevor is superb at buttoning and zipping up Cecilia's clothes after changing her. It has always been a challenge for him to zip his own fly.
By the way......what a gorgeous daddy and daughter shot!

Visitors


Scott stopped by last Friday for some frisbee golf, Thai food, and new born practice (he will be a daddy in July- congrats Scott and Becca). Look how well he holds Cecilia's head!


Erin and Josef stopped over on Sunday to sit in the backyard and soak up the sun. They also brought me the greatest gift a nursing mom could dream of owning: a Hooter Hider. No more nipple flashing:)
Thank you guys!


Cecilia got to hang with the older kids for an afternoon this week. Zahra & Felix, accompanied by their awesome mama Shaula, came over for a stroll through the neighborhood. Cecilia learned lots of new behaviors- like how to eat dirt! They will be such great role models in the years to come.

Thanks to The Crew Who Gave Cecilia Her First Set of Wheels. ... Now does anyone have some cool patches to cover up the BOB logo?


An informal, but heartfelt thank you goes out to
Moij & Sean, Amy D., Heath & Laura, Tony F., Carl & Deanna, Keith, Em & Jim, Shannon & Chester, Mike & Elisha, Jenny H., Chris & Michele, and Toby & Val

See you this summer!
