Rearranging (June 26)

This isn't terribly interesting, except that I have no idea why she took half the bottles and boxes out of the cupboard, placed each on the welcome mat, then put them back in the cupboard. It's a perfect example of a time that Alma seems to have a very specific plan in mind, but offers no clue as to what it is.

Grandpop and Mumshkie's June visit (June 21-23)

Alma eats a giant strawberry and swings in the creek. Afterward, she tries to get a stroller ride.

Counting Trains (June 9)

Alma counts the train cars in her book. 2+2+2=2!

Partytime! (May 31)

We invited a great group of friends over for dinner when we were home in PA in May. Alma and Charli entertained us.

Alma, Tom, Jessica, and Amama visited the Lehigh Valley Zoo at Trexler Game Preserve.

Has it been two months now?

It's been a while since I posted here, by the look of things.
I guess moving, traveling, and sporadic internet outages have taken a toll on the constant stream of Alma images. But fear not, I have stuff sitting on the hard drive waiting to be shared with the world.

I have actually caught up with the photos. I've posted about a month's worth of stuff over at Flickr. Here are a few highlights.

When you ask Alma to smile for a photo, this is what you get:

We visited our friends the Trachs in Lawrence, MA, and made a quick trip to the beach at Ipswich:

Alma joined us, Pop and Mumshkie, at Tom's residency graduation. She ignored us, however, and played with Mia:
