Wine Tasting

It was a long weekend of wine tasting and visiting friends. Erin stayed in her first hotel and traveled through wine country like a champ. We visited 3 wineries and she did not cry once despite the 100 degree weather.

Wyatt and Rebecca's visit

Bridget's college

rooommate Rebecca and her son Wyatt (he is three months older than Erin) came to visit for the afternoon.

Bouncer time

It took many tries but she finally enjoys the bouncer. She was smiling when I went to get the camara, but refused to do it on film- I will keep trying

One month Birthday

We went to Beckers Bakery and bought cupcakes and cookies to celebrate Erin's one month Birthday (sorry you can't read the sign well). Erin slept through the whole celebration

Firsts- bottle and fathers' day

Daddy tried to choke me with my first bottle, but the good news is that I took to it really well, probably because Erin would do anything for food as you can see by her rapid weight gain.

My first fathers day- we went on a walk and two strangers wished Brendan a happy fathers day- that was exciting.

Meeting friends

Andrew Sperry (friend from college) practicing for the future....

Oxford baby

Aunt Sonia got this for Erin- we can only hope

that she will one day wear the adult version :)

(Unfortunately she dirtied the outfit minutes after putting it on- can you tell by the look of concentration on her face)

Cousin Aedan

Laying around in Ventura

After spending the morning house hunting with Aunt Maya and Uncle Rory, Erin needed a nap

First walk

Basically we went on a walk and Erin took a nap. It looks like we dressed her for the snow, but it was actually in the mid 60's. The hat was knitted by Grandma Jacks.

Fun photos

The diaper genie is supposed to make a pearl of diapers but we did not read the directions at first so this is a sausage of diapers

Brendan catching up on some lost sleep during the daytime

Look how tiny her hand is compared to Bridget's.

Time to dry off

All clean and dry

My first real bath

No crying for me!

Having to wake her every three hours leads to some funny sleepy baby photos
