Sling Baby

Finally, we found a sling that a baby likes! We had one for Jimmy a long time ago, but he never took to it. Josie looks pretty happy here, and slept about an hour while keeping Mom's hands free.

First Stroller Ride

Josie had her first stroller ride yesterday. We finally bought a new jogger. The old one had been used almost daily for years by Jimmy and Dad. This one is more for Mom, when she gets running herself (eventually). It's kind of fun because it has a tiny speaker in the canopy for an iPod hookup--so Josie listened to some Chopin during the ride. Remember, you can click the photos here to see a bigger version--Jos looks pretty teeny in the jogger!

Josephine . . . Meet Josephine!

Nana spent a good part of Sunday holding her namesake and "studying her features." Josie's name has sparked a lot of interest in nicknames. Nana plans to call the baby Jodie, since that's what Gramps used to call her--cute! Cousin Andy wants to call her Jo-Jo . . .

Sunday at Nana's

Josie got her first nap by Nana's lake this past Sunday. Seems like she really liked the fresh air!

The trip wouldn't be complete without Josie's first visit to Adrian's Frozen Custard--the best! We'd been waiting all summer to get over there ourselves . . .

Hunger Satisfied

That's one satisfied baby!
