Chicken pox

It all started with what we thought was a bug bite last Monday. Three days later, it was joined by other "bug bites" and we went to the dr. to find out what sort of rash this was...
Poor baby! She seems to have stopped developing new spots and is now in the scabbing-over phase. Overall, considering she's not quite 5 months old and can't understand any of this, she is handling it quite well (see below).

Cousins & Uncles & Aunts - Oh My!

Linnea spent last week with Mommy's side of the family. Above she's pictured with her Nana & Papa and all four of her cousins - from left to right, Evan (9), Jack (2), Chris (7 months), and Kelsey (7).
As you can see, she got a kick out of them (pictured above with Aunt Aline & Jack, below with Daddy & Kelsey).
She even got to meet some SECOND cousins, like Lucy (below) - Mommy's cousin Holly's two-year-old (going on 20, incidentally).
And last but not least, a photo that pertains to nothing but is SO DARN CUTE!

A Busy Month

Linnea has had a very busy month since our last post.  Stay tuned for pictures from trips to Sheboygan with the Daniels, Philadelphia for cousin Christopher's baptism, and Buffalo to visit Nana & Papa's house for the first time.  In the meantime, here are a few random shots of activities that have been keeping her busy.  Above, one of her favorites - sucking on her toes.  Below, another popular pastime - her ExerSaucer from Gramma & Grampa (note the joy).
She took her first swim last weekend in Grampa's pool (precious swim outfit courtesy of Aunt Sally).
And last but not least, her highlight this last month was meeting family.  Below, her introduction to cousin Christopher, three months her senior and already beloved kin.
More trip photos to follow, I promise.  Why is getting from camera to computer so challenging for us?
