Between Aaron's
graduation, my summer classes, the
Karen Kingsbury Book Party and
Picnic, fun times with
our neighbors (one of whom is from my parent's small hometown in Malaysia - what were the odds?!), hanging out, celebrating our
2nd anniversary, playing at
Six Flags, going to
The Muny, puttering
in Montreal, catching the much-dreaded
flu, and attending a friend's
wedding in Wisconsin . . . you could say that the past few
months days literally took on wings and disappeared.
The 50 degree weather during our time in Montreal and Wisconsin caught us unprepared, and caused me to lose some faith in summer. Amazingly, Mikaela appears *not* to have inherited any of my Southeast Asian cold-bloodedness in her.
Like her dad, she thrives in cool weather, but melts in the heat:
In front of the Notre Dame Basilica, sporting a sundress
on a wet and windy day (Montreal).
Melting like butter on a humid Missouri day.Scariest thought about Summer being almost gone?
The knowledge that the days Mikaela remains as a baby are
numbered.
I mean,
c'mon.
Babies don't climb stairs, turn around, and celebrate by balancing precariously whist clapping their hands!
Toddlers do.

My summer went by way too fast too; it didn't help much that summer took so long to begin and now we are already experiencing cool temps, pretty cold at night for the beginning of Sept. I like to be warm over cold.....poor baby, really does look like she is melting in that photo!
Wow a year old! when did she start walking?
Time flies when you're having fun!! Loved the photos (Esp the wedding one and all the cute one of Mikaela! :)
How neat that you have met someone from your parents' hometown! Funny how that happens sometimes...
I like it in the 80's. I'm coldblooded to some degree. I am already shivering in the morning when it's in the 50's =P
That first birthday is coming up!! (wow!)
