We just got back to California from Ohio. Maggie had her first horse ride on Ellie, toured the farm on the gator, spent some quality time with her cousins and second cousins (she is number 26!!), and mom & dad spent a very interesting afternoon at the Indy 500 (the pictures really will speak louder than words on this one). On the growing front, our little miss is now the proud owner of 6 teeth, can stand on her own (well, for at least 3 seconds!), and is starting to walk while we hold her little hands. She will be nine months next week! I can not believe it. The pressure is on for the walking... she has to be in Gianna's wedding in August!!
We are getting ready for a visit from Uncle Johnny tomorrow and a family celebration at Kelly's graduation this weekend followed by a baby shower at the Capitola house for sweet Erin and Baby Riley.
Capitola is as beautiful as ever. Before we left for Ohio we spent an afternoon painting tiles for the community art project along the seawall. When we went for a walk this afternoon, we were surprised to see that they were already fired and up on display. Maggie did one... her two little feet on a surf board. So, if you are in Capitola... check it out: "Hang Ten Maggie".
Lots of love, The Smiths
