Mini vacation

Sorry about taking a bit of a break. Here are some photos from the mini-vacation that Matt, Satchel, and I took to Saugatuck, MI.

Saugatuck Dunes

Bundled up in the pink bear suit nestled among the grasses to break the wind.

We found this seal washed up on the shore.

Random tree swing we found on a nature hike.

Bear hat.

Favorite toys: wrist pig rattle and plastic cube with all sorts of do-dads hanging off of it (from David and Vanessa)

Showing off the bear suit.

Visit to Perrysburg

A couple weekends ago, we paid a visit to my family in Perrysburg, Ohio. Satchel finally got to meet her Great Aunt and Great Grandma.

With Great Grandma Carol (both in green!)

Four Generations (Satchel's Great Grandma, Grandpa, and me)

Great Aunt Diane (somehow we missed getting a photo with Great Uncle Paul, but he was there, too)

With Great Aunt Barb who spend a lot of time rocking Satchel (she got spoiled!)

The first immunizations

Satchel had her 2 month doctor visit a couple weeks ago and her first immunizations. She took them like a champ. She screamed for a few minutes but then she was OK. The worst part was that I had to hold her while she got the shots to stop her from squirming. Oh, the betrayal!

Battle scars bandaged with Loony Toons BandAids.

Showing off how well she kicks her legs (even after just getting shots).

Some of Satchel's Favorite Things

Napping - Birdie joined us.

Sitting with Daddy.

Bouncy chair. Satchel is very good a kicking her feet to make the chair play music and light up.

Sammy also likes the bouncy chair.

5K Run/Walk

We did a 5K Run/Walk (we walked and brought up the rear) for CommunityHealth, the clinic that I work for. Satchel slept most of the way, but still got a formula snack at the end.
