Ellie had her first "Magical Movements" dance class last Saturday. I also had to participate ...while Elllie observed : )
She was very proud of the stamp on her hand though after class.
Georgia's 2nd Birthday Party!
This was the first time I have ever seen Ellie not act afraid of someone who is dressed-up. She got both of her hands and her face painted by the clown!
She just loved this clown!
Bubbles with Georgia
Family time : )
" Get cozy, Daddy."
Clara loves to snuggle and be cozy.
Tummy-time support : )
Clara is such a happy and expressive baby- she's always smiling and laughing!
Hanging out under the umbrella at the Blue Ash pool while Daddy and Ellie swim.
Swimming in Rob and Nikki's pool. Ellie is getting more comfortable each time we go swimming. She likes to show you her "kick and paddle," and she is working on blowing bubbles and putting her face in the water. She will be a little fish by the end of the summer!
Butterflies of Brazil at Krohn's Conservatory
Check out the butterfly on my skirt!
A butterfly also rested on my collar bone nearly the entire time we were there.
Eden Park
Ellie stalling, I mean... being silly after her bedtime bath : )
A proud Great Grandpa! 
Ellie and "Dolly" 
Receiving the oil.
It wouldn't be a Lash Baptism without some fussiness. As if on cue, as soon as the ceremony started, so did Clara! She tried to fall asleep a few times througout the ceremony, but we kept waking her up with oil and water : )
Clara's Godparents, her Aunt Andrea and Uncle Andrew
Ellie and Clara's Great Grandparents
Always a little ham : )
Aunt Nancy 
Valarie and Mike getting baby practice : )
Clara tuckered out from an eventful day!
