7 months

this month

has been quite 

the adventure

for our wee vee...

she has
crossed borders

and 

ascended
high

into the mountains-

10,000- feet 

above sea level.

little vee

gets around.

in mid-march

we headed

north to

goettigen, germany

for a conference.

afterwards

we continued north

to visit
my aunt conny,
uncle edgar, 

& cousin tina
in bremen.

edgar and conny

were the first relatives

(besides omi)
to see vee
just a few hours

after she was born.

vee was quite smitten 

with aunt conny.

cousin tina gave vee
a gigantic teddy bear.

vee watched
uncle edgar
make us
flaming bananas.

 















. . . . . . .

at the end
of march
we took
a trip
to the mountains
of the valais
for a weekend
in a cabin
with our friends
christophe & jesse.

. . . . . . .

on easter
our friend kelly
came for a visit.

vee loved kelly.
they were soon
fast friends.

we took many trips with kelly...

we went in the gondola
up to
the the mountain titlis.

 

10,000 feet high!
the highest any of us
had been...

 

she also saw castles
from grandson
to chillon.




. . . . . . .

vee is also
full of adventure
in everyday life.

she is curious
about everything.

she wants
to face out
in the carrier
when we take walks.



anything within
her reach is fair game.
from bottles to fondue forks.




she has made
a forray into solid foods!

















the verdict: not interested.





we are still working
on that.

. . . . . . .

life with vee
is increasing
more fun
but more of a challenge.
every day
she learns something new
and so do we.

it's easy
to fall in love
with this little girl
as she shows us
more and more
of her personality
every day.
