Fun Fourth of July


This weekend we headed to Rochester to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa Baird. We had a fun weekend. Amelia has now warmed up to their kitty Jasmine and kitty seems to tolerate Amelia too! Many times I would find Amelia wherever Jasmine was. Now Samuel is the one that is afraid and will scream when he sees her.


We enjoyed nice weather- cloudy with some sprinkles, but nice temperatures. We ate several meals outside on their new deck. David's grandma joined us on the 4th.

Watching the fireworks.
This was the first time that Amelia had stayed up for fireworks. The night before she had been scarred by fireworks going off in the neighborhood so we were not sure how she would respond. She took "a little sleep before fireworks." and then David, Grandpa, Amelia and I headed down to watch them. Grandma graciously offered to stay back with Samuel. Amelia seemed to enjoy watching the other people, the sparklers, and just being up after dark. Midway through the show though she layed down on the blanket and then eventually got up and said 'Bye".. Her clue that she wanted to go. I think she was just tired from a long day though.

Thanks for a fun weekend!
