Potty - January 2010

Ripley has started her potty training. We've had limited success so far (although there has been some action), but she does love to sit and read.

Please note how tasteful this photo is. I don't think it will cause extreme embarrassment when she is older, but if it does, I promise to take it down.

New Years 2009 - Cape May

We ended the year on a high note, spending time with our New Year's crew (Scott, Nina, Kai and Von; James and Mare; Teresa; and Alan) in a beautiful house in Cape May. It was a bit cold, but this did not deter us. There was dancing on New Year's Eve night. Feeding ducks in the park where I had placed a letterbox last year (and that I put a new book in this year). We saw the tree and train at Congress Hall and walked along the beach as the sun went down. It is hard to imagine how we could have had a better time.
