Video of Molly's baptism

My dad did a great job with recording Molly's baptism and party. Enjoy.

The password is: 4738 to watch the video.

Baptism (continued)





These are some pics that my sister took after the baptism. Molly wore the dress that both Katie and I wore to our baptism many years ago. Even though Molly was five months old and we were only one month old when baptized, the dress still fit her fine.
Molly loves her cousin Tess. :)

Molly's baptism






Molly was baptized this past Saturday. We had a great time with our family and friends celebrating Molly.

Summer has arrived




Out to dinner at Harry's Tap Room in Clarendon. She looks more like Marty every day! :)

Here are some recent pics taken in the past few weeks in June. It has been CRAZY hot here. We haven't been able to go on as many walks as we'd like cause it's too hot for all of us! Molly has really been cracking us up lately. She grabs her feet all the time and has been able to sit up on her own when supported with her hands. It's so fun to watch her and see how aware she is of us now. She has been grabbing for Rosie alot and Rosie has been so sweet with her.

5 months old






Here are Molly's 5 month old pics. I am late in getting these up, sorry!

California baby

We got back from California last night. It was a wonderful trip (even though I had to work for four days at a conference). It was a work trip for me but Marty and Molly came along too. They would walk around San Diego while I was at the conference in the hotel and I'd meet them for lunch. Marty's sister Maureen and her family live about 45 minutes from downtown San Diego so Marty got to play some golf with Dick and Joe and we were able to make it to Caroline's high school graduation party. It was so nice to spend some time with them at their gorgeous house and relax before facing the plane ride across the country with an infant. I'm happy to report that Molly was an awesome traveler. She slept the WHOLE way out there (we were delayed by 3 hours so we took off right at her regular bedtime) and she was good on the way back. A little fussy but she is also teething (no signs of teeth quite yet) and so she can be a little fussier than her usually extremely happy self.

Ready for her first flight!

My friend Marcia and Molly. We went to lunch with Marcia and her hubby Andrew at a cute place down the street from our hotel on Sunday and then went to the San Diego Zoo. I really love this pic of Marcia and Molly.
Marcia and Molly in the zoo. LOVE this one too. They both look so happy and smiley.

First bikini!
Marty and Molly next to the USS Midway. This was the ship that Marty's dad was stationed on in 1950 and it's now a museum docked in San Diego. We took Molly on Thursday afternoon and it was really neat to see what is inside and to see where Molly's grandfather lived 60 years ago!


Onboard the Midway.

Happy at the Westin Gaslamp in San Diego.
On Friday we hiked around Torrey Pines State Reserve. I had been there by myself 3 years ago and knew that Marty would really like it. We hiked for about two hours and it was a gorgeous day. Molly's first trip to the Pacific Ocean (although she was asleep for most of it).



After the hike, we went to the San Diego County Fair in Del Mar, CA and partook in a fair favorite, yes, a fried klondike bar. It was actually REALLY yum. :)

Getting ready for Caroline's graduation party. The Nixons live in a gorgeous house and look at the view in the backyard! I loved it.

June bug

I cannot believe that it is June already. We are headed to California this weekend, Molly's first plane ride. I have a conference for work in San Diego and we're staying a few extra days to see the Nixon family. Molly will be hanging out with her dad all week while I'm in meetings.

I think Molly might have had her first signs of teething yesterday. She was super fussy when I got home and wouldn't stop crying for about an hour. It was so hard to watch her so upset. I would hate to have a colicky baby or a baby that cried alot. We are really lucky.

Here are some pictures that Katie took yesterday while watching Molly. She really is getting big!
