Visits and Visitors

Sorry for the slow updates-we've been busy with visitors and visiting others. Uncle David came to visit and brought Kate some cool new Nike onsies. Thanks Uncle Dave! Then we visited a few friends from Jeff's hometown, including Kate's new friend Evie. Here are a few pictures from our travels. Over the next few weeks we are on the road again with a visit to New York and then to Topsail Island with my (Maria's) side of the family. We'll update when we can!

Butterflies

We took a trip to the the Life and Science Museum in Durham with some friends of ours and their son Jack. We mainly went to see the Butterfly House. Both kids seemed to notice the butterflies and tried to grab them. The butterflies were saved by the quick hands of their parents. It was a fun outing for everyone-complete with a trip for ice cream at Goodberry's.



One decided to rest on Jack's head!

Ocean Adventures


The Costa family left Friday to spend a few day's in Emerald Isle on the coast of North Carolina. Nana and Uncle David joined us on Sunday. We stayed on the the sound side in a beautiful house owned by friends of ours. We are so grateful to them for letting us use it. We had good weather-not too hot. Kate enjoyed all of her ocean adventures and has finally gotten used to being in cool water. Here is our little star-relaxing in the sunshine!

Here we are at the beach-Kate was not at all scared of the sounds and sights. I think she liked the feel of sand between her toes!


Here is Kate "boating". Jeff and I had so much fun playing in the water with her.
