Tacoma Tales and Aunty Ali's Wedding (delayed posting)

I won't even pretend to know the stats for these weeks. Instead, the pictures (and limited captions) will have to do all the talking. More pictures from the Flaim-McMillion wedding and Tacoma are found here.

Granpa Frank and Liv get reacquainted


Liv meets Lia (Pang) - see here for a whole bunch of wonderful photos from this encounter


Aunt Ali and her new hubby Luke



Flaim or McMillion? JoAnn and Liv contemplate the question...

Liv in London!

  • Age: 41 weeks
  • Weight: 8.7 kg (19 lbs 3 oz)
  • Average hours of continuous sleep: 12 hours, but sleeping less during day
  • Latest tricks: Shaking rattles, not just chewing on them

Yesterday, we headed off to the Big Smoke to meet up with our friends Juanita, Andy and Sophia. Despite a false start (the train pulled away in front of our disbelieving eyes), the rest of the day went without a hiccup - Liv was happy and content all day, we had an unbelievable lunch at Le Pain Quotedien and the weather wasn't too shab either. Photos from the day are here, but the best are below.

Sophia winning the running race (she's been watching the Olympics) although full credit to Chris for the lunge at the finish line (and no credit for the camerawoman for cutting off the fellahs' heads)


Think it might be nap time

Liv(e)ly Bath Time

  • Age: 40 weeks
  • Weight: 8.6 kg (18 lbs 15 oz)
  • Average hours of continuous sleep: 12 hours after combatting jetlag
  • Latest tricks: Standing (supported)

Liv has now been on the outside for as long as she was on the inside! To show us she's now a big 9 month old, she started standing, although not without a spotter close by. Or a conveniently located couch to rest her tum on.


We have also posted some photos and movies from bath time, which is always a crack-up for her.

Flannel fun



Some well-placed splash prevents this from being R13.

Daddy decides bath time is over when Liv tries to drink her bath water.
