Boliver

We spent a weekend in Bolivar with our good friends Jeff and Debby Crain, and their little one, Avonlea, who is 7 months old. We spent the weekend relaxing, playing games, and talking. It was a much needed get away! Debby got a lot more pictures than I did, so I will post them once I get copies.

Getting ready to leave. This is evidence that Jemma can go from happy to sad to sleeping in a matter of seconds.

First two pictures, happy and making faces with Daddy.

Third picture, frustrated with her shoelaces.

Fourth picture, resting on Daddy. When she's tires, sometimes, she just doesn't know how she feels.

Reading together.

They really played well together over the weekend. For little ones around their ages, it's not real often that they really interact with one another, besides taking toys. Unfortunately, what we thought was just a cold turned out to be RSV that Jemma had. So this is evidence of Jemma "sharing" her RSV with Avonlea. They both had rough weeks following this weekend.

Jemma's "fish" face. It's one of the cutest animals she does.

Clay and baby Avonlea.

Precious Avonlea.

Playing with a hat on Uncle Jeff.

She found the plunger and played with it around the house. It looked brand new and had unused rolls of toilet paper on it.

Thumb sucking + car moving = sleeping

Awake and ready to go crabbing!

The crab we caught!

Playing in the sea shells, a fascinating new toy!
