Our summer vacation seemed a bit like a 2nd grader's Spring Break assignment: show where "Flat Stanley" has been.
Here are the highlights of Bellatrix's adventures:Bella is in Wake Forest, North Carolina at the home of her grandparents, Grandpa Joe and Tutu (Grandma Carol). I just loved this outfit! It even came with matching "shoes!" I was given the sailor suit by a coworker along with a lot of other cute, little clothes.Here Bella is in "Cheeky's" lap while in Charlotte, North Carolina. We stayed for a week with Matt's friends who have 8 year old twins and a 5 year old - all girls! Bella absolutely loved all the attention she received from everyone. Besides playing with her and holding her, they fed her, changed her diaper and got her dressed everyday! We enjoyed hanging out at the pool with them in the afternoons and eating dinner with everyone during the evenings.
Now Bella is in Germantown, Pennsylvania with Uncle Jerry. He absolutely loved playing with her! He sang and "talked" to her. They thoroughly amused each other!Bella is at Matt's house in Baltimore, Maryland! His house is in Fells Point which is within walking distance to the water and in a 'hip' part of town. It's also within walking distance from Johns Hopkins so someday it'll be a great rental...or a summer or vacation destination for us (I hope).
Bella was not a fan of the cold water at Point Lookout, New York, but Matt sure loved it. He grew up on Long Island in Point Lookout. It's a great, small beach town! I was so glad to see it and meet some many of his friends and neighbors.Here Bella is telling her dad how much she disliked the water...and how much she hates to skinny dip. We returned later the next day with a swimsuit and sunscreen and she was much happier!
We're still in Point Lookout, NY. We're in front of a tree that was planted in remembrance of Matt's maternal grandmother.
Bella is in Patchogue, New York to meet her Great Aunt Eileen. It was crazy meeting so many family members and friends while on this trip! I counted! We met 10 groups of people in 3 days while in New York! Whew!
