Visit from Aunt Sarah

Aunt Sarah came to visit for a week during her summer break.  Much of the week was low key, hanging out with Jovie.  We did go out and do some fun stuff (although hanging with Jovie is super fun in itself).

June 22nd at the Yards Park

 Jovie stood exactly still like a statue like this for about 4 minutes straight.

 Drying out in the shade

 After the Yards Park, we ate at Ted's Bulletin and got milkshakes and home-made Pop Tarts.  Yum!

Ready to take Aunt Sarah to the airport

Thanks for coming, Aunt Sarah!

Happy Father's Day 2013!

We spent the day celebrating Daddy by eating well and giving him Apple TV!  Mike is such a good Daddy, and I love pictures of the two of them.

Here's my favorite one from the day.

 Kisses for Daddy!

Happy Father's Day!

India Trip

After many visa issues, I was on my way to India with our consultant.  It was a great trip, a whirlwind, really.  And here are a few pics to commemorate it.

 Welcome from Mumbai

Both Kolkata and Mumbai were quite welcoming with welcome bags with small gifts

 Angela and me in Mumbai

 Hope Cafe in Kolkata, where some of our clients work

Hangin' with friends

Jovie is so lucky to have so many little friends to play with and grow up with.  I don't always capture the moments in photos, but here are some good ones.

May 4th, Fort Ward Park

 May 10th, impromptu meeting at Fairlington Community Center (where a squirrel stole our raisins from the stroller and peed on it!)

 June 5th, Park by the Mancari's house

I'm so grateful that she has these friends to grow up with!

Always at the Playground

It is an understatement to say Jovie LOVES the playground!  We are there multiple times a week (sometimes everyday), whether at the one close to our house where she can walk, or farther away.  Whether with friends or not.  Doesn't matter.  Jovie loves it!  She's getting pretty good at climbing around, too, although sometimes she just likes to watch the other kids.

Here are some of the  many, many pictures of her at the playground in May and June.
