Lena and Alex

Lena's cousin Alex came for a visit over Thanksgiving. Lena really looks up to her big cousin! He showed her how to play with her jack-in-the-box toy and after he left, she was getting #2, 4, an 5 - all by herself! (Previously, she could only do #3 without help.)

Rainy day

Is a perfect day to go to storytime!

Lena's first steps!

Trianon

Hanging out at Trianon with little Miss Minor Belle Keith; her mom, Carrie; Heather; and Tri regular, Bob. Lena ordered the decaf.

Sesame Street's Put Down the Pacifier Day

So, evidently, next week is Sesame Street's Put Down the Pacifier Day. HaHaHA! Elmo is Lena's favorite! If she used a binky, she would give it up for Elmo.

Baby napping on a Saturday

= a quiet cup of coffee on the patio for mom and dad. Sigh...

Lena, spaghetti monster

Bow ties? Not so much. Mom's spaghetti? Yes!
