6 MONTHS!

Yes, our little girl is six months old! Last week she completed the half year milestone and we just can't believe it. Time is spinning in baby world. We've watched in awe as she changed each day. Her personality is so strong we wonder what will come next. She says 'mum', whispers a lip-synched 'pa', is sporting two bottom teeth with an upper on the way and is now beginning to eat adult food. First we mash the crap out of it and then we turn her loose with a utensil.

She eats some rice cereal but really prefers things like sweet potato, avocado, banana, beer bottles, watermelon and BLTs (bites, licks and tastes) of everything we eat. She keeps trying to eat all my sailing magazines but I'm still not convinced that is actually "food".

...and here is a gratuitous shot of us having fun in the sun. You remember the sun? It's that thing that came out in the sky on June 6th.
We're both having a great time discovering our daughter and re-discovering ourselves.

First sail

We have been slowly introducing Maggie to some fun things we like to do, and over Memorial Day weekend, we all went sailing on Gracie. We were worried Maggie wouldn't like sailing or she might get seasick or fussy ...
we should have known not to worry.

Lillian and Maggie, exactly who let you two take your life jackets off?

These two couldn't have had a better time.


Our Family

A special thanks to Lance and Christie for an awesome weekend on Gracie and some great pirated photos.
