Yesterday, our family hosted a party to celebrate Marmee's birthday with friends and extended family. Many loved ones from near and far arrived to enjoy the beautiful sunshine and the company ... Of course, it helped that the assembly included a couple of new babies.

Charles, Henry, and Grandma Vi

Adelaide, Henry, and Auntie Phoebe

Henry and Grandma Molly

Cha-Cha and Owen

Adelaide ran around all day, playing with new cousins, getting messy in neighborhood sandboxes, sampling lots of cake frosting, and skipping her afternoon nap. After a late supper of Mac n' Cheese, Adelaide asked to settle on the couch and watch a movie. She passed out during the opening credits of Aladdin.

Unlike his sister, who slept through the night until 7:30, Henry decided that the nighttime was when he had his mama's undivided attention to complain about a snuffly nose that he's been coping with since our trip north. Still, after a restless night, he awoke bright eyed and even gave D a big good morning smile!

Joel and Aimee:
Henry looks like a handsome man. Since Henry is the name of a king, is he any relation to Ethelred the Unready? I sent you two an e-mail a few weeks ago about a possible visit to Iowa City on the evening of July 6. If you are in town, I would love to see guys.
