On the Road

Summer is here and Phoebe's wearing clothes marked 18-24 months! She's enjoying sitting up a lot more on her own and eating carrots, apple sauce, and sweet potatoes.

We left MN yesterday and are somewhere in eastern Indiana this morning. Today, we drive to Arlington and tomorrow we move into our new apartment. Phoebe was a great traveller and is drooling on my shorts after a good night's sleep.

I'll keep you all posted this year as we explore our nation's capital.
Love, Andy (Alisa and Phoebe too!).

Playing in her booster before dinner

This is a video . . . if you didn't notice. Sorry no sound, but it's taken with our digital camera. We don't have a video camera.

Phoebe and Eliza

Phoebe is quite pleased with solid food. She rejected peas with some very dramatic gagging. But she likes sweet potatoes! We had success today. She also really enjoys her glass of water to wash it all down.

Jane, Jen and their daughter Eliza came over tonight for dinner. Perhaps Eliza is a very tiny little girl, or perhaps . . . well, judge for yourself. It's hard to imagine these two little girls may sit next to each other in class some day!

Some new pictures, eh!?

Grandma and Grandpa visited from Minot this weekend and so very kindly took our VW Jetta back to Minot for the year. We hardly needed two cars in D.C. Grandma told Phoebe a lot of secrets and she listened very carefully! As you can see, Phoebe is just about sitting up on her own. She enjoys her toys too! Be sure to look at the next blog entry too; you're all getting a twofer this time!

Eating!

Phoebe really likes playing with toys in her new booster seat, despite the sullen stare. But we've started trying some rice cereal as of Saturday when Grandma and Grandpa were visiting from Minot. She didn't know what to make of it at first, but did pretty well. As you can see, she clearly has her moments where she thinks it's pretty darn good stuff. Pureed squash and fruit will be interesting!
