Enjoying the beginnings of summer

Ida Jane has been having a lot of fun so far, and summer's just begun! We've gone to the park for a nice swing:



We went to a great fair in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia (the apostrophe was dropped after John Brown's raid, for some odd reason). The fair featured bluegrass music, lots of arts and crafts, and a model train set that Ida Jane loved to watch. Here's mama and Ida Jane getting ready to listen to some bluegrass.



Of course, with the advent of hot weather, cute dresses appear. Here's a combo that features a kerchief. Ida Jane likes striking a pose in her new clothes.



Mama had her last day of teaching yesterday, and got to spend a nice day with Ida Jane. She got a brand new toy that helps you learn to stand. We saw this at a friend's house, and it's a lot of fun for a teetering baby.



There's no walking yet, but we are learning to crawl. Here's a video that shows how Ida Jane gets from one toy to another.



Have a great weekend, everyone!
