End of August 2010 - Abigail at 7 months

Wow, this was a busy month. We began by venturing to Sesame Place outside of Philly. It was an interesting thought that 2 years ago that we wouldn't really consider this trip, but Abigail resets the clock a little. Luckily, there was still enough to entertain a 11 an 9 year old as well...we had a good day.




I took the Madi and Andrew to see the Ravens training camp in Westminster MD - we are not really fans, but it is only half an hour away. It was pretty hot, but the kids got to get close to some players and get some autographs.

The kids are just to right of this picture and didn't get Flacco's autograph, but saw him up close.


Andrew did end up with a Ravens jersey that was on sale a week later. Here he is with his jersey and his autographs.


We also travelled to Virginia to see Rebekah's friend Melissa and the Dunn's. It was a good time. Madi and Andrew got to swim in the pond, ride horses, and ride some 4 wheelers. Here is a pic of Andrew with his helmet on.



Abigail continues to grow. She is now able to scoot her way around the room, go to her belly and roll over. She is on the verge of crawling and is grabbing on to the couch to try to stand up. She is pretty active. She has also developed to ability to reach out and wave, kind of. She also squeals as a way to talk with her brother and sister, it is really comical. She also is able to now enjoy her swing. Here is a picture of Madi and Abigail at the swing as well as some other random shots.




The other main event this month was the start of school. Madi and Andrew had a good first week, as did I. It has been a bit of an adjustment from the freedom of summer, but it has gone as good as could be expected.

I hope this post finds you all well as you end your summer. Please keep in touch. Until next time...
