First day on the patio

It was a lovely day here in Washington, DC, and mom and dad took Ida Jane out on the patio to celebrate! We had fun sitting outside, watching the dog, listening to the banjo, and talking to one of our favorite toys, Munkmunk.

Here's Ida Jane sitting with Mommy:



Here's Daddy and Ida Jane, both with some very pasty legs.



We brought out Ida Jane's own high chair, so she could sit like a big girl and talk to her favorite toys, like Munkmunk.



And, last but not least, allow me to present the amazing Raspberry Baby!

Top o' the morning to ya

Our Wee Beanie is dressed for the day in her finest Irish Green. Here's a couple of pictures and a movie from this morning.

Here's a big smile.



Her mom and I can't get over how chubby her feet and toes are. Here's a good idea of what I mean:



This is a movie of Ida Jane sitting in her boppy and playing with her rattle.

A very interesting story

Ida Jane had a very interesting story that she wanted to share with everyone. She asked me to put it up on her blog, and I was happy to oblige.



81 degrees here in DC today, and we're only going to get up to 39 on Friday. Go figure!

Ida Jane eats with a spoon!

With the OK from her Doctor, we gave Ida Jane her first taste of the spoon. She did pretty well with it, as you can see:



Here's Dad giving it a shot.



End result? She did very well, taking at least a dozen bites before deciding that the bottle is quicker, at least for now.

Long time no post!

Hi everyone,

Sorry we've been so delinquent in posting up new pictures of Ida Jane. Here are a few to make up for the long internet absence.

Here's a picture with Grandma, who visited for a very nice week.



Ida Jane has started chewing on teething toys more often, too. She particularly enjoys this bee.



This Monkey hat from Cousin Carly is a very cute addition to her spring wardrobe:



Her daddy bought her a new lion after a doctor's visit.



This morning her mommy decided it was time to start the baseball wars with a Red Sox outfit, courtesy of Uncle Mike and soon-to-be Aunt Stephanie. Dad will be following with Cleveland gear sometime soon, I'm sure!
