What a smile!

This might be my new favorite picture!

Visit to Camp Stephie!

We all had a wonderful visit to Camp Stephie right after school was out. We relaxed, ate crabs (Cora sampled some), played in the river, visited the Calvert Marine Museum and watched the World Cup. Thanks so much Claude and Stephanie!

More Spring events!

Here is a sampling of the last few weeks in Cora's busy schedule!

Cora overload!

We have been totally neglecting the blog (I blame Facebook), so I thought I needed to add some pics to get everyone caught up!
Cora and Uncle Casey building with blocks!


A future career as a doctor?

Happy Easter!

Admittedly, it's a little early, but Happy Easter! Cora's day-care celebrated by having an Easter Egg hunt for all the children! Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

Christmas 09

Finally, some pictures from Christmas! Cora had 5 Christmases total... and we only managed to take pictures at 3 of them, but there were some great moments at all of them. Thanks to everyone for making it such a great holiday!

Snow

It's been quite a while since the last update, so we'll try and catch up in the next day or so.

Lets start with the snow! Cora got to see her first big snow storm before the holidays. She wasn't sure what to make of it at first, but she quickly appreciated how cold it was after opening the door to wave at her Mommy.

 

 

 

 

Let it Snow

Cora had her first real taste of some snow this weekend!

 

 

 

New favorites

Just needed to share a few more recent pics. Cora loves her Lexington Fire Department helmet she got at school... and she and Tony spent some quality time this weekend out on the deck. They just don't look happy at all!

Ready to go...

Believe it or not... Cora did this to herself. She loves Tony's headlamp and then she decided to add my sunglasses and the binky for the final effect!

Halloween

We had a great time for Cora's first trick or treating experiences. She went as a white tiger cub, and only a few people called her a zebra! Her school went out on Friday and we took her to the Halloween fair at the high school on Saturday, and then to the VHC to watch Auntie Renata. She was a star throughout!

Pumpkin

Cora took a field trip - literally - to the pumpkin patch. The chosen pumpkin is home now, and ready to be carved!

 

 

 

 

Winter weather

With the arrival of cold weather, we have spent time outside stacking wood and tidying the garden. Cora decided to try out her winter gear... including new snow boots!

Football Sunday

Cora and Daddy have enjoyed some quality time together today. Quite a bit of it was spend watching football and enjoying some tasty snacks!

Chef's Assistant

Cora decided to take her complaint to the management when her brief employment as Chef's Assistant didn't include enough treats and sugary products!
