Big wheels keep on turning

First of all, thanks you to the as yet anonymous sender of these two books for James. They came in the mail last week with no note or indication of the sender. James has really enjoyed them but we'd love to know who to thank!



For the record- they are 'The Line up book' and 'Not a box'

The good weather, combined with James' increasing activity (as well as the Dutch cycling tradition) led us to purchase a new tricycle for James. The handle on the back for the parent to push is a key feature. James and Mike had a great time putting it together-







The (mostly) finished product:



In other, slightly bigger, news- we just got a call from the Valdosta/Homerville contingent: congratulations to Marilois and Pablo on their new addition. She was a surprise at three weeks early. It is all hearsay at this point, but the word is that Frances Faith Campa arrived within an hour of her parents making it to the hospital. No stats yet, we have only heard she is beautiful and came with a head of hair.

Yay! We are so happy for Marilois and Pablo, glad she arrived safe and sound, and quickly too, it sounds like! Love James' new trike, I am sure you will be out and about even more now. That parent handle has to be one of the best inventions yet, at least in the mind of this tall mother.

Mary- thanks for the books, it was high time we had some fresh material.
Dor- gotta have the adjustable handle for the tall freaks!

Congratulations! Glad that all are well in babyville. : )

That handle is awesome. Instant wheelies.
