Miami Whitewater Park

Tuesday we met the Burgoons & friends at Miami Whitewater Forest for some fun at the sprayground. Georgia's Granddad came down to spend the day with her. She had a great time. This was the best we could manage for a photo. She was on the move!

"Happy Day, Daddy!"

Today is Brian's birthday. G woke up this morning and said (after being prompted), "Happy Day, Daddy!"

Children's Museum

Tonight we went to the museum center and had a great time in the Children's Museum.

I'm swimming!

We filled up the pool today and G splashed around with Dora and Boots for a while. The water was so cold that her teeth were chattering but she refused to get out!

Busy Weekend

We had a busier than usual weekend but, of course, I did not get any photos of Georgia! Friday night, we went to Kings Island for Brian's company's picnic. G was not too interested in getting on many rides but seemed to enjoy getting out of the stroller to walk around the park. We watched a parade and she waved to Dora and Boots.

Today we celebrated my father's 70th birthday at Karen's house. Many of our relatives from my mother's family and some from my father's family came to wish him well. After the party, Georgia's Uncle Matt and her cousin Andrew came to town to go to the Reds/Cubs game with Brian, Bob and Matt's friend Sean. Here is a photo of Matt & Andrew at the game.

Although we enjoyed the events of the weekend, we are looking forward to a relaxing day at home tomorrow!

'Tis the Season for Ice Cream!!!

Tonight we dusted off the ice cream maker and whipped up our first batch of the season. Here are some pictures of G enjoying a bowl of cookies & cream.

Dandelion

This is a picture of G on her grandparents’ patio a couple of weeks ago.

Zoo

We went to the zoo a couple of weekends ago and here is a photo of G enjoying the tulips. She insisted on walking around the zoo instead of riding in the stroller.

Tumbling class

This afternoon, Georgia and I met Stacy, Carter and Riley for an hour of tumbling and gymnastics. Georgia had a ball, except for an incident involving the rainbow parachute. (She ran underneath it, realized I was not with her, and was not very happy!) She really enjoyed jumping on the trampolines. Here is a photo as she and Carter jumped together. (As you can see, G's new summer shirts are already a little too small!)

Easter photos

Go Play Cafe

Recently, we joined the Burgoons and friends to celebrate Carter's 2nd birthday at the Go Play Cafe (http://www.goplaycafe.biz) in Mason. The kids had a great time and Brian got a workout as he followed Georgia through the tunnels and tubes!

Fashionista!!

Brian took Georgia upstairs to change her diaper and this is what she insisted on wearing instead of her pants.

New Bathing Suit

Georgia's friend Riley gave her a bathing suit that she outgrew and G insisted that she wear it one morning last week. Looks like it might fit her this summer - it is a 4T!!

Thanks, Riley!!

GREAT News!!!

Last night, Brian spoke to his best friend Jeff and found out that he and his wife Katie are expecting their first baby at the end of September! We are so happy for them!! Congratulations!!

Sleepyhead

Georgia has the sniffles and decided to take a nap on the couch today.

Just a cute picture

Karen asked if we had any pictures of Georgia reading books (for a photo contest at a bookstore in Wilmington). We did not have any so I took this one last week.

Happy 2nd Birthday, Georgia!

We celebrated Georgia's 2nd birthday this past Saturday and had a great time. Thanks to all who shared the evening with us!

Extra-special thanks to Tante Karen for hosting so graciously and cooking a delicious dinner!! Georgia enjoyed your "yummy" lasagna and garlic bread!

Basket Case

Stacy and I attended a basket weaving class last night (and the previous Wednesday). Here is my end result. It is far from perfect, but I had a good time with Stacy and managed to finish the basket without throwing it across the room, which is quite an accomplishment for me. Stacy weaved some blue throughout her basket and it looks really pretty.

Helmet Head

Georgia received a bike helmet from her Aunt Kathy and Uncle Danny last week. Here she is trying it on.

Best Dressed: And the Oscar goes to...

Look no further than Georgia! She is ready to party!
