Summer, 2005: Part 1
Diggin' in the sand
Dig and dump!
Hey, where'd the baby go!? ;)
June 6
Charlotte and her best buddy Colwyn at the park
Telling jokes!
June 8
At our favorite farm with friends from playgroup. This is a gentle, old sheep who likes to stand quietly beside children and ever-so-patiently wait for a handout... scares Charlotte to death!
Cutest baby bunny ever!
Friends coming back from visiting the animals
Tricky little smile

She loves her new shopping cart (complete with pink cell phone -- help!)
June 21
Goofing around at the rose garden at the park
June 24
Our Trip to Baltimore!
Charlotte and I had a girls' weekend away with four of my friends and their kids. It was a wonderful weekend even if we did all wonder whether we were totally insane at times. ;) The kids ranged from 20 months (Charlotte, the oldest) to 8 weeks. We visited two playgrounds and the mall, but mostly we played at the motel where it was cool and shady!
Charlotte going to jump out of the chair!
June 25
Mama and me!
Charlotte, Patrick, and Shannon
Charlotte relaxing on the stairs
Wow! an old choo-choo train
Toot toot!
Sweaty and asleep in the car

Charlotte and Shannon helping themselves to Fruit Loops from my lap
Oh no, the Elmo balloon -- source of some contention!
Goofing off
Bye bye, big airplane!
"Real" finger paints for the first time!
Dot dot dot
Yay! Painting is fun
Ooh, I'm messy
What my paint plate looked like
Off for a bike ride with Daddy!
July 3
The first picture of Charlotte in her new glasses -- she'd had them for about a week.
July 8
They make her eyes look even bigger than usual! (she is farsighted and has an eye turn) Hopefully the glasses will correct the eye turn over time, and she will be able to see better with the glasses. Eventually, she'll be wearing them all the time.
July 13
Playtime in the band shell at the park
July 16 - 28: Our Trip to North Carolina
July 31
At Quincy Market in Boston with Grampy Mark! We are on our way to a Sox game. It ended up being really exciting, and we got to see Manny Ramirez return after a lot of talk that he would be traded.
Hee hee!
Waiting for the game to start with Grammy, Grampy and Mama
Laughing it up with Grammy
Johnny Damon waiting to bat
We had pretty good seats this time even if they
were obstructed view. Much better than last time, where Chris could see the
pitcher and I could see the batter, so we had to report back and forth. ;)
David Ortiz (Charlotte's favorite player) on deck
Curt Schilling, pitching as a closer
