Rebekah helps Suki get her socks on at the place to play.


Ready to jump in the tunnel.

Kate surveys the scene.

So happy.

In the tunnel and then...

...whoops!


Up in the cockpit.

Granny and Grace.

Across the way.

Jumping to Rebekah.

These big boys were playing a bridge game. After Orange Shirt went through, Suki fearlessly braved the fray.

Relaxing on the bench.

Jumping!

Three generations, a different view.

Looking down in the mall.

Grace adores her Dad.

Suki and PaPa.

There are a lot of shots of the merry go round.















Merry go round fun.

Sharing a drink. If she actually got some, this was Suki's first time using a straw successfully.



Three funny shots.

Kate woke up! But she woke up happy.

These animals made Grace and Suki laugh.

Suki looks for her cookie sample.

Sorry, this one just cracked me up.

And why are these two checking out their bellies?

PaPa models Suki's tutu for a bit of nighttime dancing.

One of my favorite shots of Suki ever.

Dance dance dance.

A sweet night with Kate.

August 29, 2008

Last part of the day first, thanks to the vagaries of Blogger.

Suki climbed into Granny's lap to read a book.

Kate loves Bekah.

Funny family.

Rebekah put Kate on the zebra for the first time today and her sisters gathered around.


A hug from Sook.


A hug from Grace.

So affectionate you can't really see Kate at all.

Close up of Suki.

Close up of Grace.

Zebra fun.

Kate loves these wrist rattles.

Sitting pretty with PaPa.

Suki gets a little M&Ms treat from PaPa.

This cube is one of the best baby toys ever.

Granny gives Kate her first taste of solid food, some pureed bananas.



She liked it, but only for a short time.

M&M eater Grace looks on.

PaPa gives Suki a ride on the tricycle.

Could not resist this close up.

And of course Grace wanted a turn on the tricycle too! They had a blast today.
-------------------------------------
Grace just loves spending time with her Dad.

Kate and Suki play quietly on their own.

A little reading time.

A funny angle for this baby.

Aunt Rebekah came to play!

Suki gives her a kiss too, but I had a terrible angle.

Grace gives Granny a kiss.

Sook had so much fun tossing bunny beanbags to her aunt.

So sweet.

A wide angle shot...

...of a good old fashioned family sit around.

Grace completed this Mr. Potatohead all by herself for the first time!

Kate woke up to meet Rebekah.

A kiss for her newest niece.


So much fun together!

Three generations together.


A musical duck for Kate.

Kate just loved this duck from Granny and PaPa.

But what's that little hand doing off to the side?

Surprise surprise, it's Grace!

Kate was happy with the trade Grace suggested and all was well.

Reading The Lorax with Bekah.

What a funny little picture.

Suki is all smiles.

Suki was so charmed by this puppy boot but I think it might be a bit small for her.

No matter, these girls were still able to out for some splashy fun before nap time. They enjoyed stomping in puddles but it was raining too hard for this umbrella-less photographer to document those good times. This one is definitely worth a click to embiggen.

A kiss for PaPa...

...and one for Granny.
