Summer Highlights - Jane's Second Birthday!

A small gathering of friends and family helped Jane celebrate her second birthday (ahem, two months ago). She had a wonderful time.



To this day, when asked about her birthday, she extols the virtues of the cupcakes. She really enjoyed them.


Thanks to all who helped us celebrate!

Summer Highlights - September

Wow. We must really, really like that purple sweatshirt.

Playing in the backyard.



Fabulous clay-dough jewelry!


Playing her music class songs.


Baking cookies with Mommy. Yum!

Summer Highlights - more photos from Will's birth

No, not that kind!





Thanks, Corrie, for the great pictures.

Summer Highlights - July-August

Of course Will's birth was the highlight of July. Here's what else we were up to:

At the Fitzgerald's American Music Festival on July 4th.


Baby pool and sprinkler at the same time!!


Taking a break at the park. Henry, Carmin, and Becky spent a lot of time chasing around Jane this month. Thanks, guys!


Finger painting... even better outside!


Picnicking with Daddy at the Art Institute gardens.

Summer Highlights - April-June

Ok, so April isn't exactly summer, but we had some nice weather...

Working in the yard with Mommy.


Jane's new sandbox!


A pony ride from Becky with buddies Polly and Madeline.


Enjoying the backyard.

Summer Highlights - Visits with Family

As promised, a little catch-up blogging... a few photos of our summer fun before winter gets here!

We were fortunate to have lots of visits with family this summer:

Enjoying a pretty summer morning on the porch with Papa.



At the playground splash pool with Auntie Corrie. Corrie came to stay for a few weeks before Will arrived and while Mommy was in the hospital. She was a lifesaver, and Jane loved having all that time with her.


Grandma and Grandpa came to help out after Will was born. Here's Grandma with "two babies at once!" as Jane would say.


And of course Auntie ZaZa had to come meet her new nephew!


Thanks for coming to see us and help out!
