A Butterfly ...

... on our blackberry bush.

She's Safe, Amanda & Jeremy

Adeline is visiting us for a few days while Jeremy and Amanda are attending a wedding in California.  We're looking forward to a fun few days with her here.

We converted the living room into a super sized play area where she has lots of room to roll around under our watchful eyes.   An unintended benefit of this change is that the cat has evacuated the room and moved outdoors.

But mostly, Adeline's being carried around.


She loves the front porch swing.

Maggie's Birthday Party


















Outdoor Time

Even though the weather was generally not cooperative last week, Maggie still managed to get some time outside.

Baking with Maggie

Maggie and CL baked red velvet cupcakes for Maggie's birthday party.  But first, Maggie had to model the new apron that CL had just sewn for her.









After the cupcakes had cooled, Tip came by to do the decorating.


She helped Maggie do one special one for herself,




and she finished the rest with flowers.

I don't know how I missed taking a picture of the entire tray of completed cupcakes.
