The three R's...

Sequoia has been brushing up on the three R's

Reading
Relatives
and Roadtrips

One of her favorite things to do lately is read her magazines and books. She absolutely loves to grab the pages and turn them, crumple them, tear them out or just gum them.

Last weekend her cousins Will and Christopher came down for a visit. They also brought along their parents, my brother Mark and his wife Gena.

This was the first time Sequoia met her uncle Mark and she was struck by how much better looking and intelligent her daddy was than her uncle. Well her uncle Mark must be doing something right since her cousins are turning out to be great young men.

Last night Sequoia and mommy took a road trip down to Virginia Beach to see some of their friends down there.

Sequoia got to meet Sage who had worked with Colleen at the Aquarium.

She also spent some couch time with 2 year old Delaney, the daughter of Laurie - another Aquarium alum.


Sequoia evidently spent part of the evening hanging out in Delaney's old bouncer that has since become the home of Delaney's stuffed animal friends. That accounts for a few more R's...

Reduce
Re-use
and Recycle.

There is always an educational side to these posts....

Great pictures, especially the ones with Sequoia reading her books. Before long she will be asking Mommy and Daddy for a library card.

It's hard to believe that our little cutie is already four months old. She is growing up so fast.

Can't wait to see her this weekend on her first visit to North Carolina.

Love.

Oh boy -- Sequoia is "reading" books and turning the pages herself -- now THAT is impressive, to be sure! We are happy to see she is now able to use the high chair we gave her -- she looks right at home in it, too.

I know her Maryland cousins enjoyed getting to see her again, and Uncle Mark thinks Sequoia is a "pretty neat little baby!" so he says. Of course, we all know that, already!

It's always fun to see the friends she gets together with, thanks to Mommy for seeing that she gets around for all these visits!

Love you guys a lot!
