A Day in the Life

Today was the first day of summer and the last day of Grandma's visit to DC so it was a very exciting day in the life of little Wilhelmina. After an exhausting day of shopping yesterday, Mina slept in this morning. Hooray! After getting up, she had her usual "Daddy time." We played a bit and then it was time for lunch. Mina got to sit up in her new high chair and get some tastes of solid food (we are just giving her a small portion around lunch to start). Today we went with a storebought concoction of butternut squash, carrots, apples and prunes from Ella's Kitchen. Mina loved it. I loved that it only contained the fruits/veggies and just a little bit of lemon juice and comes in an easy-to-use squeeze pouch.

Hmm... butternut notes... with a hint of apple...

This stuff is DELICIOUS!
After lunch we went out to Eastern market to do some shopping for Mina. She got some new books and an adorable 4th of July outfit from Grandma. Mina is considering buying some movie-star style shades as she can't go anywhere without being stopped and told how cute she is. 
When we returned home, Mina had an evening swim in her whale-of-a-tub. She got to try out her new "Wilma the Whale" swim diaper and hat - so cute. She loved splashing in the water and playing with her dinosaur bath toys.

This is the life

Our first day of summer ended up being a little too exciting so Mina is now enjoying a pre-bedtime nap.  But it looks like it is going to be a great summer!

  1. I was there and I'll vouch for every word and every bit of cuteness I witnessed. Grandma loves Mina!
