Memorial Day Weekend




The school year ended with over two days of constant rain, which is very unusual for Arizona in May. Alas, the year did finally end and now two months of vacation!

On Saturday Jim and I had a party to celebrate his promotion and the end of the school year. Several friends came over to join us for the afternoon. A good time was had by all, including Elizabeth who played with other kids as well as amazed everyone with her crawling and cruising talents. We also discovered she is starting to have some stranger anxiety, so we'll be socializing her more in the near future.

Elizabeth is just starting to eat three meals a day and I've started giving her some raw fruits that are soft. Today's treat was peaches and bananas.

This coming week I'll go to school for two days to do curriculum work then E and I will go to Gilbert to visit Jeff, Lisa, and James. Elizabeth will get to go swimming for the first time!

Our new addition is a white kitty with smoky blue eyes whom we adopted this weekend from the Humane Society. She is nine weeks old and needs a name! If you have suggestions we'll be happy to consider them! The name we originally picked out is being considered by Jeff and Lisa for baby girl K, so we are back to square one. As you can see by the picture the kitty enjoys Elizabeth's toys. She had a great time this morning playing with the mirror.
