Big School

The Baroness began a twice weekly toddler program this week. She refers to the program as "Big School". Not surprising, she loved to paint, sing and wash her hands. She even painted her hands, just so she could wash them. The photo on top is from this week and the photo on bottom is from a visit in March.

Illinois

We came back a few days ago from a wonderful and whirlwind visit to see family in Illinois. Besides visiting her grandma, grandpa, great-grandma, aunts, uncles and dad's cousins, we met the Baroness' new baby girl cousin, J. and spent lots of time with her other cousin M.

The Choo Choo Restaurant

One highlight of the trip was a visit to the Choo Choo Restaurant where a small train brings your meals and desserts to you at the counter. The Baroness' father used to go to the same restaurant when he was a little boy. Mom especially enjoyed the cupcakes.

Labor Day

We spent Labor Day at the beach.
