It feels like it's been awhile since the last post, but not too much has been going on here. Madeleine has had several colds, which means we've been going out less. But I couldn't resist a beautiful sunny day in Wellington last Friday - we dropped some neighbours off at the airport, and enjoyed the beautiful views from a nearby park.
Madeleine is walking all over the place now, but once we got outside, she was too busy picking up every little pebble to go very far by foot.Another reason for going to Wellington that day was to see the Esmerelda - a Chilean navy ship that was in port for a few days, and open to the public for a few hours.
Madeleine loves putting things around her neck and over her head. Grammie Jean sent a package a few weeks ago and used a bunch of pieces of yarn to tie it - Madeleine has held onto those strands of yarn and drapes them around her neck, on and off, on and off.
She finds our hats that are within reach...
and our scarves...
and my stethoscope!
Steve was busy the last few weeks, building a new little telescope just in time for the transit of Venus last Wednesday. Unfortunately, that was the one really rainy and cloudy day in weeks and he didn't get to see the transit.
And here is a shot of M and me cuddling on the couch... she didn't stay there long though!
All that's missing in the second photo are the sheep in the field, or the cows Miss M is about to milk! Thanks for another wonderful set of shots. - Dad
ReplyDeleteDid Jean knit the strawberry hat? That's awesome!
ReplyDeleteIt is a super cute hat - actually it was a gift from Grace back when M was born. So fun that it fits her now.
ReplyDeleteLove the stethoscope shot and the snuggles with mommy! Can't wait to meet her soon!
