Had a week off from work so we all went to Westport for a few days to see family and friends.  Clara had a fantastic time and I took a million photos of her playing with her cousin, her grandparents, 2 uncles, 3 aunts, a great-great aunt and some good friends.  We went to the beach, Stepping Stones children museum, the Maritime Center (aquarium), out on a boat, and did a lot of back yard playing.

Here are a couple of my favorite photos from the trip:

Abba, Clara and the Sea Horse

Happy father’s day to my husband, my father, my step-father, my father-in-law, and to all the other fathers out there!

We saw a great exhibit about sea horses yesterday at the aquarium and this photo has a giant daddy sea horse with his little baby ones — along with a special father/daughter pair from our house.

Little Gym Show Week – Birdies Class Photo

Originally uploaded by chocolate spoon

Last day of the semester at the Little Gym this morning. At the end there was a cute award ceremony and everyone got a medal. This is Clara’s last class in the “Birds” — next week she starts as a “Beast” instead. Lots of her friends have already graduated up to the Beasties so it should be fun to see them all again.
