Howdy Jack

Baby Jack came to visit! His visit brought about one "new" thing: Cora added the word "baby" to her vocabulary!

 

Welcome!

Mom's window cleaning gave Cora the opportunity she needed to play with the front door. Combine that with her Dad hanging out the front windows with a camera, and you get this.

 

Potty Time

Cora took delivery of a new potty, and proceeded to make a delivery of her own,...and it was on her first attempt!

Cora's New Word

Labor Day Weekend

Cora spent Labor Day Weekend in Charlotte, NC. A fantastic weekend was had by all!

New adventures

Cora has taken many steps onward and upward lately. She now eats at the counter while sitting in her booster seat...


And takes a bath in the big tub (with a little help)...



So far, so good!

Snack time with Daddy

Cora gravitates to anyone who has food, and she attempted to steal some of Daddy's peach cobbler the other day. I think she was expecting a few more spoonfuls to go her way, but Daddy did share in the end!

YBR picnic

We went to the Yellow Brick Road picnic on Friday night and had a great time. It was nice to see Cora on the playground and with the other kids. It was easy to see why she seems to be having such fun there! She showed off on her favorite climbing spot, and Daddy helped teach her how to go down the slide!

A Brave New World

Cora Spent some time at Pre-School last Friday with her Mom. Today was the first day flying solo. Both parents were present for a smooth take-off...

Cora and Daddy

Cora has spent a lot of time watching Daddy out the window in the past weeks while he labors to build our new deck. She loves to keep an eye on him! They have managed to spend some quality time together anyway!

The Beginning of a New Relationship

Drying Off

A little fun drying off

Bath Time

Here's a post Cora will hate me for in years to come:

One of the few times you can put Cora down and reliably predict her destination is bath time. Cora loves bath time. Here's the ritual walk to the bathroom...

Sweetcorn

Cora gets some tips before chomping on some corn!

 

 

Independence Day!

We had an absolutely wonderful Independence Day weekend. Nana and Pop came to visit, as did Casey and Lawson. Cora played in the pool, enjoyed new toys, entertained everyone over enchiladas, and wowed the crowds at VMI. For the second year, she fell asleep during the fireworks... guess she didn't inherit the pyro gene from Mama and Dada!

Down with the English!
