While Mom’s Away

November 3-7, 2015

I left my baby for several days for the annual meeting of the Council of Colleges of Arts and Sciences in Washington, D.C.  It was a great trip.  However, there were several Selah June adventures enjoyed in my absence.  Here are some of the highlights.

Ashley watched her on Tuesday and grabbed a quick video on her cell phone, thinking Selah June was about to walk.  (My biggest fear while I was gone!!!!)

Mom kept Jules and Selah June on Thursday.  They had a bunch of fun in the toy room, playing with all kinds of things!

Pumpkin in the Pumpkin Patch

October 31, 2015

Selah June’s been sick with the croup.  So we didn’t really get all worked up over Halloween.  Though we looked at many costumes for several weeks, in the end we decided to keep her warm and cozy and away from all the kids roaming the streets.

But we had to get some fall pictures with the pumpkins!

Outside in October

October 28, 2015

Daddy made chicken on the grill the other night, and we seized the opportunity to play outside in the yard.  How could I not take some pics?

I’m really enjoying this age.  She can say so many words.  She’s extremely aware of her environment and is able to communicate what she wants.  We have all kinds of little jokes and games we play.  And she’s started really nuzzling while she lays on your chest when she’s tired.

Our biggest news as of late is that we’ve graduated to a big-girl carseat.  And it’s super comfortable.  We like it a lot.

Our favorite foods at the moment are: bananas, bread, chicken, oranges, crackers, puffs, grapes, tomatoes, and french fries.

My favorite food is ice cream, just in case you were wondering.
