Cousins

April 3, 2012 by Aliesha

Last week Vera & Cordelia’s cousin Drew came for a visit. 

Drew was so sweet to ask to hold Cordelia!  Vera loved following Drew around, saying his name and playing with him outside.

Thankful for family!

Family Walks

March 26, 2012 by Aliesha

We’ve been walking in our neighborhood lots lately.  The weather has been perfect… not too hot yet, but warm enough and sunny!  Vera loves it because she gets to see doggies (she actually asks about 20x a day, “doggies? doggies?”).  When we walk past a yard, she’ll ask, “Do you see a doggie?”  It’s so cute.  We’re learning the names of the dogs in our neighborhood (and meeting neighbors, too) and it’s fun to see Vera so delighted with the dogs, even when they bark at her.  We see a few kitties (which Vera calls “meows”) too.
 

Cordelia enjoys the walks (she usually falls asleep by the time we reach the end of our sidewalk) and I know the sunshine is good for her.

 

The sunshine is good for me too!  I haven’t really dealt with the “baby blues” as much this time as last, and I think part of that is because it is spring and I’ve been able to get out and soak in the sun!  We walk about 1.5 miles every day, so I’m hoping this will help me continue to walk off the baby weight. 🙂

Tad and I enjoy the time together, since we are able to carry on a pretty uninterrupted conversation with each other during our walk.

Does your family like to walk together?  In the future, we look forward to riding bikes in our neighborhood too!

Do you think baby Cordelia looks like her Mommy, her Daddy, or a combination?  See her picture yesterday.
