So advanced


















Holding cups, sitting on her own, standing up. All at only 5 months. I think she is trying to catch up to the dogs.


Five Months







Lake Winnipesaukee


When the weather in New Hampshire finally decided to get warm we were invited down to a lake house with Shelby's uncle Joe and roomates. Here are some pics Shelby's first time in water outside of the bath. She was a little distracted by the water. Hence the reason she isnt looking at the camera in any pics. She was great until she got dunkey by her dad...the first picture.

Solid food







We started Shelby on rice cereal around 4 1/2 months. I was hesitant to do it because you are supposed to wait until 6 months if you can. However we have a big hungry baby. She has more than doubled her birth weight and was ready for food. She tries to grab ours constantly. Here are some pictures. Thank you Tori for the adorable bib.

New Camera Lens!









I recently purchased a wonderful new lens. An old OM-1 manual focus 50mm f1.8. It is amazing for all of you who like photography. I highly recommend it. Of course it is taking a long time to learn to use a manually focusing fixed lens. Here are some shots. Good thing Shelby is a willing subject.

Uncle Joe












Uncle Joe came up from Boston this weekend. The weather in Boston has been as bad as the weather in New Hampshire so we enjoyed some wonderful time in the sun. Of course when you havent seen the sun in 3 weeks things can become a little loopy...like the pics show.

Aun Jill




Jill came all the way from Oregon to visit. Shelby was a little grouchy initially when they met but became the happy baby we love. We miss you Jill!

Father Day







For Father's Day Shelby and I did a little project to show her father how much she loves him. I am going to frame to print these and frame them for Andy.
