Amelia was so fun - having her around just makes everything better! I miss her very much and am SURE that she misses me too.
I've also included the 5 month belly picture. I feel like baby pants/belly had a big growth spurt over the past week - when I left for Seattle I could still pass as a non-pregnant lady, and now I am definitely visibly pregnant.
John is in New York City this week for his first "sitting" - he left yesterday (Saturday) to spend a little time with Katie and Karl before the week begins. I stayed home because my new job at the apple orchard just started. I'm working 9-5 at this little mom & pop orchard - selling apples and doing anything else they need me to do. I think it's going to be the perfect seasonal job - I'll only be working there through October - after that, perhaps I can find another seasonal job.

We were on a bike ride - Dave and Lindsay don't actually require Amelia to wear her helmet on playground equipment
On a drive through Widbey (?) Island
On a tour of a chocolate factory - what I didn't get a picture of was Amelia, after I gave her a tiny piece of chocolate, which she managed to melt all over both hands and her face, while wearing the hairnet. It was adorable.

5 Mos. - what a difference a month makes! I feel like a boat. And yes, I'm wearing maternity shorts. shorts!
Here are a few pictures of Geneseo - there was a parade going on - they normally don't have as many American flags, I promise.

You look fabulous. Cute! Not a boat. You don't know from boats. You, Laura and Amelia look like you were having a great time. I love the pho picture. Amelia is definitely a Spencer - she is taking this eating thing VERY seriously.
I think you both look quite smashing with your hairnets. Maybe that bakery job would have been just fine for you. Why isn't Laura wearing a hairnet? Is she a rebel? Did they kick her out? Did she get any chocolate???
Geneseo is just a small town - with a parade and everything! What was the occasion?
Keep those pictures coming. We love you lots! mom and dad
wonderful to relive those fleeting moments of you in seattle w/ you siblings. oh, and amelia ... i forgot about her. i cant wait to come visit YOU on the east sah-EED (that's "side" said gansta-style).
helen, john, please move to seattle ... i promise it will be worth your while. hey ... free babysitter!
What a FABULOUS belly! I just want to touch it! (Okay, maybe not, that could be a personal-space issue.) Anyway, I was just saying to myself, "I wonder how Helen and her belly (and John) are doing?" Then I remembered that I had Dave's website in my favorites, and then I saw that you had a blog, and then, and then... I saw your belly.
And I dig the shorts.
Maybe someday, if I can find Geneseo on a map, I can plan a roadtrip to see you.
