Things I Can Do - Eat at My Table

We finally got Ripley her own little table and chairs. She eats at a little table at day care, so we thought she's like one at home. So far, it has been a pretty big success, and she looks like such a big girl.

And despite the Tiger's bib, they did not make it to post-season. Maybe one of these years, they will?

More Fun in October

Our October weekends are shaping up to be full full full. This weekend, we had an impromptu visit from Matt, Christine and Deirdre which involved a trip to the Science Center and dinner out. Somehow, I think we ended up with no photos from this visit, which is quite odd, but a good time was had by all.

And then today (Sunday), we took our first trip to the Aquarium. We couldn't quite tell how much she enjoyed the fish, but she loved it each time we put her down and she was able to dash off into the crowd. She especially loved it when we took a break in the snack bar area, and she was able to move chairs.

Fells Point Festival Weekend

Fells Point Festival weekend holds a dear place in our hearts (our first kiss). While this was not Ripley's first festival, I think she enjoyed this one much more than last year when she was only 4 month old.

Her Grammy and Pop Pop came down to visit and accompanied us on our Saturday Fells Point Adventure. She was the only one of us to end up with any sort of purchase. Note her owl bag in the photo of her on her Pop Pop's shoulders.

We went back on Sunday, met up with the Martins, played on the playground in the Lancaster Street park, and then our final adventure was walking back up Broadway and stopping for her first ride on a carousel. She was a bit tired, but each time she came around, she gave me a big grin.
