4th of July

For the 4th of July this year, we decided to set our Claremont traditions aside and spend the weekend at a cabin in Big Bear (thank you Leah). We got to go out on the Lake, celebrate Zoe's birthday, play cards and, of course, eat until our pants didn't fit. Helena and I were a little sad that Jorge wasn't able to join us (graduation around the corner) but Courtney and Cameron were able to come which helped make up for his absence. Overall a very fun weekend.





Play Date

Chicken salad, baby swapping, nursing breaks, toy sharing, naps and mommy talk... a very successful play date.


Jessica, Lisa and I had a wonderful visit with 2 1/2 year old Aidan (who was excited to hold the babies) five month old Helena and two month old Thomas.

Helena is sitting on her own and very interested in her toys... lots of fun for Jorge and I.

Helena Mia wears no clothes

At one point, while shopping for baby clothes, my mom told me to be sure and take pictures of Helena in my favorite outfits, something she regrets having neglected to do. No problem!
