First tricycle ride

We regularly take walks around the block and at first, Lola rode in her stroller, she then graduated to riding in a backpack on my back, and now she's able to ride on a (parent assisted) tricycle. Sing it with me... Boooooooooooooooooorn tooooooooooooooo beeeeeeeeeeeee wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiild!!!

Walkies!

Over the past few days Lola has made the move from cruising to walking! She's making such fast progress, you can see the improvement in this video that spans four days.

Wagon Rides

Lola has been pushing her Radio Flyer wagon around like its her job and she expects overtime! She likes to give rides to her dolls, toys and even the dogs! Of course she's not above enjoying taking a turn herself.

Hummingbirds

In addition to two dogs, two [plus] cats, and two chickens, we have several bird feeders so we can enjoy our fine feathered friends. Maggie got a hummingbird feeder with red glass flowers that attract the zippy dee do das.

Splashing around

We visited with Maggie's family during the Memorial Day weekend, it was hot and beautiful weather. We decided to get out Lola's little tub and let her splash around on the deck to cool off. She had a good time.

A slow boat to Long Island

We regularly travel on the Cross Sound Ferry from Orient Point, NY to New London, CT. The ferry ride breaks up the trip nicely and we usually get to meet some nice people, see some dogs, and enjoy the views as we cross Long Island Sound.

You can see the dogs that had Lola mesmerized just outside the ferry window

On this trip home Lola went crazy for some young dogs out on deck just outside our window. She got really loud, pointing, and banging on the window. The owners of the lab mixes were very nice and let us pet them and say hello.

Sunset at the Orient Point lighthouse

We also saw a spectacular sunset just as we entered the port to land, it was nice to get back to Long Island and a good ending to our trip.

Date night
