Six months in the city

Walking in our new apartment

Walking in our new apartment

Unbelievably, our little girl is six months old. So much has happened in the last month, it feels overwhelming to try to bring the blog up to speed, but I’ll do my best. Camille and I have had a great time staying at my parents house in Atlanta. Jami’s wedding was so sweet and fun, and Camille got to see a lot of family and friends. She also got to meet her great grandfather, my mom’s dad, for the first time. We spent a week relaxing in Atlanta after that, then went up to New York to find an apartment. We found a great little spot in the upper east side of Manhattan, just three blocks from the Met and Central park. I think Camille is going to like her new neighborhood, even though I noticed the city is so much noisier than I remembered. I don’t think she’ll be riding the subway anytime soon! We celebrated her six month birthday by walking around our new neighborhood. We ate lunch at a yummy sidewalk cafe, then she fell asleep while Remi was carrying her in the baby bjorn. She is more interactive every day, and blabbing her head off. She is eating some solids and starting to drink from a sippy cup. Also, big news, she’s started to get up on her hands and knees like she is just about to crawl. She is beginning to be a bit shy with strangers and a bit clingy with Mommy, but on the whole she’s such a joyful girl. Here are some pictures of the last month or so…
