Happy Birthday, Uncle Louie!

Do I look bored?
What's this dog doing? I guess Roni and I are showing our panzas! Sophie the Giraff means business. Rygie sniffs her.
I'm so cute! I am about to make a dinosaur noise!
Can you see up my nose?
Love, Merritt

Hi, I'm four months old today!


Fun, random stuff



































































Remember that game, "Get Rid of the Squid!" ? Well, Merritt has his own way of dealing with wayward Squidykins: He eats them!

Mostly Mica's Birthday!

One day Merritt had lunch with his mom, just the two of them. It was fun!Another day Merritt and his mom went to have coffee at their favorite place, and Merritt gnawed on a letter from Catherine in California. Then he showed off his tummy.

Another day he played with Rygie on the floor in the living. Merritt loves his cozy bug blanket! Rygie oftens spends more time on his tummy than Merritt does! Merritt loves to take a bath!

On a lovely day in October, Mica celebrated her fourth birthday! Her dad made roasted meat, her mom made appetizers and a beautiful Strawberry Shortcake cake & cupcakes! Mica celebrated with her sisters and friends--including Merritt--in her backyard. This was Merritt's first birthday party!
Merritt and Judith:
It was tough to capture an image of the illusive Birthday-Girl, but here she is, surrounded by her sister, Pia, and some friends. Many of the girls were theme-dressed in stylish black!

Mica looks a bit like Strawberry Shortcake (or Frutillita!) herself!
Carolina, me, and Mary were also theme-dressed. We didn't plan on purple, but we rocked it!
Here's the cake: splendid!
Merritt chills out with Pia!
