It's business....

Hannah's new favorite chair to sit in is our office chair - particularly when we spin her in it.... 

And she's recently discovered the keyboard..... 

Splish Splash!

Nana knows how to keep Hannah cool during this Boston heat wave, a little backyard splashing during their day together....

The Beach!

Hannah and I escaped the heat in Boston this weekend by hitting the beach (Wilson hit the golf course instead). Saturday we were in Falmouth and it was a bit chilly with the fog and wind off the water but we had a good visit with Aunt Kate and her roommate Cameron who were in town from DC. Today we spent a couple hours on the beach in Chatham with Aunt Allie who is home for a few days before heading up to Dartmouth for her summer term - it was even warm enough to go in the water! 

Digging.... 

Gazing at the water (this was a popular weekend activity).... 

Splashing with Mom.... 

Hmm... sunglasses.....

Got 'em....

How do I look? 

Give me those back!

Hmm.... let's see if I can untie this....

The water was very interesting.... 

All cozy and cleaned up for my nap on the beach (which didn't happen)..... 

June

Auntie Sarah was here for a visit last Friday while she looked at apartments in Boston. She and Hannah had fun watching me weed the front walk....

Memorial Day

We spent a beautiful Memorial Day weekend in Chatham. The weather was absolutely perfect and Hannah had a great time exploring everything! She particularly enjoyed playing on the deck. Grandma created a nest for her so when she tipped over, she landed on soft pillows. And she LOVED playing with Mia - who was a very patient dog this weekend and let Hannah pull her hair and her tail and her ears. 

Hannah also thoroughly enjoyed digging in the sand and putting her toes in the ocean. Unfortunately the beach pictures seem to be lost in cyber space but we guarantee there will be other beach shots of Hannah this summer. Given how much she enjoyed her first trip to the beach (and how well she slept after it!), we plan to spend lots of time there this summer. 

Despite the lost beach pictures, Grandma did an excellent job getting several other fantastic pictures this weekend. Here are a few (or a dozen!) to enjoy..... 

Exploring the grass..... 

Playing outside with Daddy....

Please stop taking my picture...... 
Entertaining us on the deck in the afternoon sunshine.....

Mmmm..... 

Laughing with Grandma.... 
A very interesting deck.... 
My hat strings make a good toy when I can't find anything else..... 
Catching up with Uncle Eben.... 

Just hanging out at my desk...

May

Happy May! We're sorry for the lack of posts lately - we've been busy!! Hannah's perfected the art of sitting and rolling and is currently working on crawling. She gets up on all fours but doesn't actually go anywhere.... we're predicting she'll be moving pretty soon though! 

Here she is modeling her Red Sox gear - and my lens cap! 

Balls have become a new favorite toy now that she can sit up. She loves having the ball rolled to her although we're still working on teaching her to roll it back. Usually it (like everything else) just ends up in her mouth! 

Now that the warm weather is really here, we are spending lots of time on the porch. Hannah loves her swing!
