Two cats out of the Bag


























































































































































I am just now catching my breath from a very exciting few weeks. As much as I wanted to write about it, Mommy told me I had to keep both surprises. A couple weeks ago we traveled to Florida to celebrate my great grandparents 85th birthdays--WOW! They were very surprised and happy to see all of us. While we were there, Mommy & Daddy took sis on a surprise trip to Magic Kingdom. It was kind of hot, so I chose to stay back and snuggle & play with Aunt Bonnie. She's lots of fun! I also met Aunt Betsy, Uncle Steve, Uncle Tim, & 2nd cousins Stacey & Matt. And all the usual suspects were there as well: Uncle Bran & Aunt Erica, cousin Dante, Grampa Bob & Grama Jan. Sister went to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique and was transformed into the beautiful Princess Jasmine! She was floating on a cloud the next two days as everyone greeted her as "princess". After we returned home from Florida we spent our last week with Mommy before she was to return to work. The three of us had a great time bonding on maternity leave. Sister started dance class where she will learn ballet and tap. Then on June 13 I had my baptism. Mommy and Daddy took off my clothes and they dipped me in the baptismal font. I cried, but they were tears of happiness-- and then I heard everyone clapping for me so I stopped. This week was my first week at school with my sister. My teachers are really happy with my tummy time skills and are pleased that I am swatting at things. I actually started swatting at dangling objects on June 2nd. Nowadays I am also cooing and smiling a lot. I hope you enjoy all my photos and the video.
