Kate's Half-Birthday Trip

Unbelievably, Kate turned six months old this weekend. We took her on a day trip to Annapolis (close to where we were married) to hang out. It was a gorgeous day. I know this sort of looks like a bar--and, well, okay it is. But we were outside too. Come on, you can't keep a baby outdoors for too long. She'll catch cold!

We haven't been posting for awhile, due to a problem with our digital camera. The problem has something to do with Candace, a halloween party and a concrete floor. That's all I'm allowed to say about it. But we do have my camera phone, which serves in a pinch.

Kate appearing understandably skeptical about this entire endeavor.

What's wrong with you? Why are you making me stare at a telephone?

See? We went outside. Boats. Boats are here. Sky. Sun. The whole nine yards.
