A couple of weeks ago, Georgia and I dropped Brian off at work and spent a day in Columbus visiting our friend Kelly, who was in town from Boston. Kelly was in Columbus to visit with her new nephew – Joshua – who was about a month old and completely adorable! It had been a long 2 years since we saw Kelly and it was a great day. After going out to lunch, we spent the afternoon at the pool in Kelly’s brother’s development then went for ice cream before G & I headed home.

That Saturday, the three of us headed back up to Columbus. After seeing Matt’s new office, we went to lunch with Bob, Carol and Matt. After lunch, we drove over to Dublin to attend a baby shower for our friends, Jeff & Katie. They are expecting their first baby at the end of September. We saw their brand new house for the first time and it is beautiful. G especially enjoyed the open space of the rooms they have not yet furnished! The baby’s nursery is adorable; Katie’s mother, a talented quilter, sewed the sock monkey-themed crib bedding. Not surprisingly, they received LOTS of great Ohio State-themed gifts!

This past weekend, Brian’s parents met us at a local spray-ground and spent some time running around with Georgia. Georgia had a great time with her Granddad and Supernana.

Here are some new photos of Georgia. In one, she is wearing a t-shirt that her Uncle Matt bought for her at Lollapalooza, a music festival he attended in Chicago earlier this month. The other is a photo of her at home yesterday, hamming it up for the camera while she played with her dinosaurs in the dollhouse.

School Days




Georgia will be starting pre-school in September and we are getting ready! Today we received a letter from her teacher, Mrs. Bruce, and we have already been given our first assignment – to tape/glue a photo of Georgia to a piece of paper and write about her family and some of her favorite things. No doubt that "ice cweam" will be one of those favorite things! Tonight we found her a little backpack and she loves wearing it!
