Spring came and went

Last weekend we went to the Greenwood Car Show with friends and took some fun pictures. Lola is wearing Uncle Adrian's (not really an uncle) glasses. Their daughter Lily took a turn too!




Well, spring came and went and I found it hard to keep up on the weekly maintenance of this blog, so it has been awhile since I have updated with Lola's latest escapades! I am going to vow to keep it updated at least every other week, so no more excuses. Now that I have said this to my friends and family, I hope I can keep up the daunting task. I will attach some photos of what has been keeping us busy lately.





Lola and I went to visit Grandma and Grandpa Harvey for a week in early June and had a lot of fun. We went to the zoo with Lola's cousins and spent time with aunts and uncles. At one point Grandpa had Lola in the basket on the bike, but don't worry, he didn't go anywhere with her, it was just for picture posing. We also saw some of our friends, including Debi and her son Archie who was born in early April. We also got to spend some time with Lola's only surviving great grandparent. He is 92 years old and still walking everyday.

Lola's Baptism

We went to Greenlake for a walk on Saturday the day before the baptism with Grandma and Grandpa.





On Mother's Day our daughter was baptized into the Catholic Church. The baptism was held at St. Catherine's Church in Maple Leaf. Both my family and Chuck's were in attendance, and a couple of friends. Afterward we went back home to celebrate with food and an ice cream cake. No, Lola did not get any cake, but if I would have thought of it, I probably would have given her the smallest piece (microscopic) to see how she would have reacted. As it turned out, since she wasn't eating cake, there was more for the rest of us. And a piece still in the freezer tempting me right now as I update this blog. Yummy!

32 weeks to 36 weeks

Lola is growing every week, here are some of her more recent Sunday night photos!

Cousins wedding in Arizona

Wow, hard to believe how fast time is flying and how hard it is to keep up on my blog. We have been back from Arizona since the 26th of April and now it is already almost mid-May. Well we had a fabulous time in Phoenix for my second cousins wedding. We have grown very close to my moms sister and her family. So, when we got invited to the wedding, I said sure thing!
We did lots of dancing and finally we took pictures of Chuck, myself and Lola. We always complain that we don't ever have any of just us. Lola was an angel on the plane ride both ways and we got so many compliments on how cute HE was. Looking back it is quite comical since I have often thought she looks like a boy. It doesn't help that I dress her in neutral colors a lot of the time.
