Meeting Molly.

While in St. Louis we were able to introduce Ada to a very special person, Miss Molly. We had a great time at Kayak's and hope that Molly has a great first semester at college.

We've just returned from a visit to St. Louis. This was Ada's first time on an airplane and she did a great job. We had a great week, full of some of our favorite St. Louis spots and people. We hated to leave but were excited to head back home to Savannah to see Papa. Our journey home was a bit rocky but Ada managed to hold it together despite delays, thunderstorms, missed flights, and a late return home. (sorry the pictures are out of order....blogger is giving me trouble)

Hanging with Papa.

Smiles.

Hanging out with Mom in the morning.

After Alex leaves for work Ada and I often spend sometime hanging out in the bed watching the Today Show. Here are a few pictures of Ada relaxing in the big girl bed. As you can see she loves to try and shove both of her fists in her mouth at the same time.

I think I'd like to chew on my hands....

These are really good.

Do you think I can get both of them in at the same time?

Success!

Me? Shove both my hands in my mouth at once? Never! I'm a lady!

All dressed up after church.

We took some pictures of Ada in her pretty pink church dress Sunday afternoon. She continues to amaze and amuse us with all of her facial expressions:

Our friends Nate and Laura Henderson run a photography business, Open Light Studio.

They took some pictures at the July 4th party that we were at, and blogged about below. There are some really good pictures of Sara and Ada. Oh, and yes, those are my seer-suckered legs in the croquet picture.

The Corteses come to town.

The Corteses were in Hilton Head for the week and stopped to spend Sunday afternoon with us before heading back to Crystal River. We enjoyed a nice lunch and a lovely walk around downtown. Thanks for coming!

4th of July.

We spent the evening of the Fourth with some friends. Alex had a go at horseshoes and croquete. We didn't stay for sparklers but made it home in time to see some of the downtown fireworks from the comfort of our living room.
