It's been hard to update the blog because so much has been happening with Graham and Julia!
Their 'first' party--complete with Party Dress and Dress Pants and shirt--was March 7. We had a violinist who is the head of the President's Own Marine Band, and his pianist, play. (Alas, it was the same day the memorial service in Ann Arbor took place for Aunt Jerrie Johnson...we will find photos at some point to post. She was quite a fun and loving dame!)
Graham was mesmerized by the music...that boy has rhythm and loves music. Music will quiet him almost as quickly as a bottle will (I said almost!). He watched the violinist for a good 35-40 minutes before g
etting squiggly--a marathon first! And Miss Julia? Little social animal that she is, she kept climbing up and down the stairs between her beloved Rachelle and me...and greeted friends who happened to come in late ("Bleeeh!!! Wave Wave.)
Then, this past weekend, Auntie Mary came to town, and we had TWO more musical events. Graham again sat and kicked his legs to the beat (and against a friend's leg) as he sat on the couch and listened to Brian Gantz play the piano. Julia again was wandering the hallway "Bleh! Ehhhh!" Wave. Wave.
The Sunday party involved a tenor and pianist...and the same reactions from the babies.
Food and folly and wine followed. Needless to say, we are all wiped out.
The babies also did many more things, of course...but photos will be posted this evening.
I'm just...too wiped out from all of the fun!!!
