The Lees' Ledger: Twenty One Months

What a busy month it has been. But oh so fun!!

In early April, Mommy and I went to North Carolina for a weekend (We left Daddy at home to study for his Boards.) We stayed for a few days with a friend of Mommy's from when she lived in East Asia - Mary Elizabeth Maynard. They have a little girl about the same age as me, Blissy. We had so much fun playing together. And, it was nice to enjoy some warmer weather for a change, too. On that Saturday, Mommy left me with the Maynards while she drove up to Virginia to attend the wedding of one of her dear friends, Lynn Lipp McBride. That was the first time that I went to bed at night with someone other than Mommy or NaiNai -- and I did great! Blissy and I had such a good time that I hope to get to see her again soon.

The weather here has been really crazy. One day it was 80 and the next day, it was 50. We also had a lot of rain one week, and some of our friends had flooding in their basement. But, it is slowly getting nice outside - which means more time outside. YIPPPEEEE!!!!

It has also been a great month for fun with friends. We've had play group fun; fun at the Hodgsons; fun with Kimi; and fun with NaiNai.

We have spent the weekends working in the yard. Mommy and Daddy say I am a good supervisor, and a good helper to pick up sticks and weeds (I especially like the yellow dandelions). On one of Daddy's days off, we went to the Botanical Gardens. WOW!! So many beautiful flowers.

Some of my favorite things these days: playing with bubbles, pushing my stroller in the driveway, eating JellyBelly jelly beans, pulling all the toilet paper off the roll (Mommy and Daddy are not too fond of this one though), taking off my shoes and socks (I have even learned to take off my pants too), putting on Mommy's shirts, playing with friends, playing at a park - going down the slide, having bubbles in my bath, and my favorite continues to be watching Little People videos.
