The Adventure Continues

We had a fun visit at the Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary. They have woodsy trails to explore and rescue animals to see.
Sunny's always loved owls (she has owl toys/stories), and Julio the spotted owl was no exception. Nauntie got grabbed by a tree on our hike. Silly Nauntie.

Grandma and Grandpa hiked with us. They've been up to visit at least once a month since Sunny's birth - we love it!


Swimming lessons continue each Saturday. Sunny always has the biggest audience. Max and Nauntie love to come, and Omi, Papa, Grandma and Grandpa have come, too.
After her bath, Sunny loves to bang on the mirror and make faces at herself.
Auntie Jodie is so fun - she visits Sunny on her days at Popo's house.
We took this shot of Sunny standing up in her bed (she'd pulled herself up from sitting), and then promptly removed the bassinet. She's now sleeping securely in the bottom of this Pack N Play. She loves standing up, and does it as often as we'll let her. She can support her own weight completely, though we help hold her once she's up so she doesn't strain her legs.
This laundry basket allows me to tote Sunny around the yard while I work outside. On this frosty day, she helped me take down the Christmas lights.

We had a fun visit at the Yeck house. Sunny and Brooklyn like to hold hands and stare at each other.
Sunny in her new Ergo carrier. Until we figured out how to adjust it correctly, we had super sore backs!
Lovin' on her Chia-kitty. Chia mothers Sunny all the time. She's never more than 10 feet away, and she seeks out petting, cuddles, and Sunny's open-mouth kisses. Even though Sunny isn't always gentle, Chia just flattens herself against the ground and takes it, glad for her baby's attention. Chia's old and fragile, so we supervise the 2 of them for the cat's sake.


Sunny's getting good with her fingers - she likes to touch her index fingers to ours and pick up small sweet potatos puffs. She's also hugging and delivering big wet kisses to our cheeks.
Standing up like a pro in the bath...Daddy's hands are hovering close, ready to stabilize her, just out of the frame.
Yay, swimming!
Papa and Omi cheered on our little water pixie.

  2. I sure love visiting your pictures! We had a great time on our lunch date, but when Veda says it's time to go, well it's time to hit the road - Yikes! Next time she WILL take a nap before hand :)

    Let's do it again soon.
