Out and About


This is the little miss, prepped and ready for an afternoon excursion to the local Memorial Day fair in our neighborhood. The fresh air and sunshine was much appreciated, all around. We've had the bikes ready to go for sometime (including that intriguing contraption into which Thumblini is strapped), but we haven't been out much for a litany of reasons. However, with Memorial Day being the unofficial kickoff to summer, the pull is strong and can't be ignored no matter the weight of recent events. My baby needs her vitamin D - and so does Thumblini.

(BTW, if you want to know what that awesome bright green contraption is, it's an "iBert Safe-T Front Mounted Child Bicycle Seat." If you go to Amazon, tell 'em Dr. Dad sent ya! :)

I can't believe how much she's grown! I love following your blogs. Thanks for continuing. (I've got to put that bicycle seat on our wish list. How cool!)

Thumblini looks so big (and surprisingly happy considering that she has a helmet strapped to her head).

I am going to have to get one of those green contraptions and take Roxana for a ride. Or, maybe we should reverse the roles since she seems to have a lot more energy than I!

Wow! I can't believe the pics in your previous entry are really of the same little girl! Isn't it crazy how much they change? Aila was, and continues to be, stunningly beautiful. Enjoy Summer!!
Sadly we won't see you three in Chicago, but hopefully next year.

Unbelievably cute! I can't believe how much our princess is growing -- physically and also in her self-assurance which shines through in this picture. Wow. So GLAD you had a beautiful sunny day and were able to enjoy it - and YES, get those two beautiful babes healthy doses of Vitamin D!

Wow....she looks like a little princess on her green throne! That does look like a neat contraption!

She seems so BIG. I'm looking at her photo now and she's like "I'm just hanging here waiting for my ride!" Super cute!

She is really such a pretty lil miss. :)

Beautiful - Aaron looked at the picture and said, 'is that Thumblini?' She has grown so much in just a few months!!! '

Beautiful - and the green contraption looks like fun :)

Wow, she looks so grown up! Where did your baby go? She looks like she was loving the view and the ride.

Glad to hear you guys are getting out and about and enjoying the spring beauty.
