Photos from our trip to visit Gwyneth's parents, Judith and Bill, are up on flickr here. There are more, but our camera is malfunctioning, so I can't download them.
After a beautiful week in Wellfleet with the Eckelman-Brouhards, we drove up to Hope, Maine for a week with the Joneses. A few days in, Alison, Matt and Petra joined us. We went on a few short hikes, went swimming in the pond, had lobser rolls, went to the Union Fair, harvested veggies from the garden, and generally ran around the yard.
So, what is new with Iris, developmentally. While on vacation, she perfected her use of the word "no." Oh, boy. She is fond of saying "no, no, no, no, no." I'm sure other parents love this phase as much as we do! Of course, she only really means "no" about half the time she says it.
Iris has picked up speed. No longer the clumsy walker, she now practically runs. We saw friends Jacy, Victoria and their 2+ son Milo on the way north. Milo, being older, is a confident runner. The day after we visited with them, we noticed Iris had picked up his style and lifted her feet as she ran (mostly away from us).
She's got a few new words: bubbles, apple, berry, up please, shoes, JJ (what we call Judith), and Iris! All used rather inconsistently . . . except for JJ, which she picked up quickly.
