First, let me apologize for our camera, which is suddenly taking blurry photos. We have not yet figured out why.
The visit to the north Georgia mountains was lovely. It was nippy at night in the lodge, so little John slept wearing his cozy hat:
At the conference, we ran into familiar faces: my local LLL chapter leader and several group members, our lactation consultant Anne, and my doula Guina (photo below):
John had a super fun time playing with Daddy throughout the weekend:
Our little family toodled around the Swiss-German-esque town of Helen . . .
. . . and enjoyed an authentic dinner of German small plates.
While in town, I visited the wonderful store, Jolly's Toys, and designed a Noah's Ark pegboard for John! It reminded me of a little pegboard I had as a child. The store sells pegboards of various shapes, letters in many colors, and the animals. I can hardly wait to see little John old enough to toddle over to the wall and grab his coat off of his own peg!
And here is a bonus (self-taken) photo just to show John's latest pastime: When riding in my Moby wrap, he clamps onto the side and chews to his heart's content, leaving a big and growing wet patch in the fabric.
last time my camera took blurry pics, the lens had been touched by little fingers leaving fingerprints. hope it's something that simple for yours.
ReplyDeletecute skirt!
i have generally shied away from getting personalized stuff for the kids and good thing too, things get passed on so quickly around here!
I see three little specks on my camera lens but have not been able to wipe them off yet.
ReplyDeleteActually, I bought the personalized pegboard because I figure that John will have to share most everything. I was envisioning a sweet day when we might have many kids sharing bedrooms, but at least they can hang their own little jackets on their own little pegs. This reminds me of my husband's favorite picture of himself: He was the youngest of five boys and in the photo he was a toddler wearing a jacket embroidered, "Timmy," the name of his #2 brother!
I love LLL conferences for all the fun hanging out and socializing :) Hope you had a blast.
