I got to be with you the afternoon of Friday, May 25 but because I had a longer than usual visit with my mother in Mobile, I didn't see you again until Tuesday, June 5! A total of 10 days without seeing you; the longest I've been away from you. Much too long! Although I didn't take these pictures, I got to see a lot of the mischievous "under the blanket" smile when I visited & you wore the striped pajamas to bed June 5. Being away from you that long really emphasized how quickly you grow and change. You are exceptionally alert, curious, laugh a lot, and learn new things quickly. You are very good at communicating both joy & things you don't like. You actively play with your toys. You are really trying to be mobile and on occasion you succeed in going from one place to another independently. You now take naps in your bed instead of the car seat and you are really enjoying eating a wonderful variety of food. Your parents are very healthy eaters and it is a gift to you to be raised to eat and enjoy healthy food. Although it is going to be 5 days until I see you again, I am going to go to the beach with you! First we are going to stop in Mobile for you to visit your great-grandmother. That will be a treat. I will be with you for 7 days so that will compensate somewhat for going too long without seeing you!! I'm really looking forward to our time together. I must be the luckiest grandmother ever!
