Mikey and Grammy Jean

Mikey thought it would be funny to teach Grammy Jean how to use a sippy cup. I don't think she likes Mikey's choice of beverage though!

Aunt Liz and Uncle Roddy's party

We were so thrilled to be invited to attend Aunt Liz and Uncle Roddy's 50th anniversary party. Lots of family was in attendance and Mikey was in great spirits considering he had spent the day in his car seat and didn't nap too well on the way. Uncle Roddy and Aunt Liz, the couple of the hour.

eldridge park

When I was a kid, every year class trips usually entailed a trip to Eldridge Park. It was a small town amusement park perfect for a third grader who's parents never took her to Disneyworld. In the past few years a few folks around Elmira have banded together to bring the park back starting with refurbishing the carousel. On Friday we took Mikey over for his first ride. The thing flew around pretty quick and Michael looked terrified. Once it stopped he was all smiles though. Maybe next year it will be more fun!

9 months and counting

It's amazing to think about how much has changed in the last nine months... Mikey is now a crawling machine, pulling himself up on anything in his path, an independent soul who doesn't want to be slowed down by anyone! He sits up big and tall and has a touch of the devil inside!

Corporate Challenge

A few weeks ago the 3 of us went to the J.P. Morgan Chase corporate challenge to root on the RHSC team.... it was a great night!
